This was mostly review for me though probability especially Beyes Theorem derivation was new. The instructors provided clear often refreshing ways to look at material.
Thank you for a great class!!

This course syllabus is great. It starts wonderfully. Week 1 to 4 is taught by Paul Bendich, and Daniel Egger the instruction is awesome. Effective way to refresh and add the Data Science math skills!

Concepts are not explained thoroughly. Not totally for beginners. Great problem questions.

There is no practical usage of it. There can be a project which shows its practical usage.

Good for those who have not taken any maths since 10th grade, else it would be too easy.

The last week (Probability) has terrible lectures. They are anything but comprehensive.

Good concepts but too brief. Not for rusty minds. WD40 refreshers needed now and then.

Explicações rápidas e não 100% claras e exatas. Exemplos um tanto quanto toscos
