About the Course

Data science courses contain math—no avoiding that! This course is designed to teach learners the basic math you will need in order to be
successful in almost any data science math course and was created for learners who have basic math skills but may not have taken algebra or
pre-calculus. Data Science Math Skills introduces the core math that data science is built upon, with no extra complexity, introducing unfamiliar
ideas and math symbols one-at-a-time. Learners who complete this course will master the vocabulary, notation, concepts, and algebra rules
that all data scientists must know before moving on to more advanced material. Topics include: ~Set theory, including Venn ...

Hi it is very helpful to me. Concept is properly explained. I enjoyed learning process. Expect some more courses on data science as well as on python which involves real time application.Thanks a lot.

This is neat little course to revise math fundamentals. I generally find learning probability a little tricky. This course helped me a lot in better understanding Bayes Theorem. Thank you professors.
