It was an unprecedented experience for me in Data Science, just as it was educating and entertaining. The content of the lectures was pretty comprehensive, the lecturer himself mesmerizing, and the fellow students awesome!
The lectures were essentially the instructor reading from the provided Jupyter notebooks at _very_ high speed. You can slow down the video, but then you get a weirdly artificial drone that is hard to listen to. And the lectures jump briskly from topic to topic without providing any context, or advice about writing good programs. The assignments took WAY more time than estimated because (a) there was a lot of self-learning via StackOverflow (b) the auto-grader is very very finicky. (It would have been useful to have a quick demo video showing how to approach the assignments and deal with the auto-grader). That said, the people (TAs?) helping on the forums were very helpful. And I learned quite a bit, but mostly on my own.
Indeed very insightful session and assignments..
The videos provided by this course is very good for learning the basics of data science and we really do not need prior knowledge of python just need to be familiar with any programming language.
This course boost my skills by learning data analysis basics
It was a challenging, time-consuming and difficult course, but the course itself did help me understand a lot about pandas library in python. It would better if the course can extend into 5-week course.
Amazing Course
Great introduction course, some assignments are not clear, but with Google and the forum you can pass all.
excellent course and hands on learning and assignments
I think some feedback on assignments would be helpful for progress.
