Excellent introduction and getting working with the several python libraries for data analysis.
Useful course to get familiar with Python. Assginments are tough but that's the only way to learn for real.
Challenging and well worth the effort. This course shows you the basics of what they need you to do then leave you to research on what you need to do to combine said skills, and a few other supplemental skills you need, making sure you generalise and are able to work in the real world.
An excellent fast on ramp into Python and especially NumPy. The usual caveat with online courses, the assignments often consume 2-3 as much time as you expect (so allow for this).
Great course if you are new to pandas and statistical features of Python
It has its problems, but it's a great start to Data Science
This course was illuminating and rich in information. However, I noticed a huge gap between the content covered in lecture videos and the knowledge level needed to complete the assignments, which made the assignments way harder than expected. This might be intentional, in order to prompt students to explore the full functionality of python and take advantage of online documentation. Overall, this was a good course to really get my feet wet with python.
Loved this course
I think a little more explanation from the Professor would have been helpful
