课程概述

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 diagrams ~Properties of the real number line ~Interval notation and algebra with inequalities ~Uses for summation and Sigma notation ~Math on the Cartesian (x,y) plane, slope and distance formulas ~Graphing and describing functions and their inverses on the x-y plane, ~The concept of instantaneous rate of change and tangent lines to a curve ~Exponents, logarithms, and the natural log function. ~Probability theory, including Bayes’ theorem. While this course is intended as a general introduction to the math skills needed for data science, it can be considered a prerequisite for learners interested in the course, "Mastering Data Analysis in Excel," which is part of the Excel to MySQL Data Science Specialization. Learners who master Data Science Math Skills will be fully prepared for success with the more advanced math concepts introduced in "Mastering Data Analysis in Excel." Good luck and we hope you enjoy the course!...

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.

Week 4 gets confusing as more examples could help explain concepts. Otherwise overall course is great for basic math skills for Data Science

it is good but there are things that are not explained in a very clear way but it is a good course remember you must practice and go further

Introduction to some basic mathematical terms. Conducted in an easy-understand way. Not very clear explanation in the part of probabilities.

All great until the las module. The topic was bearly explained and I had no idea why things happen or why a specific answer for a question.

Great for those who need to review their fundamentals. Helpful for people like me who already forgot about derivatives, probabilities, etc.

The last part, Theory of probabilities was very unclear, with not correct explanaitions. Needed another sources to learn. Other parts good

the material could be a little more challenging. If more vector/matrix material is introduced would be more helpful to the data scientists

This course helps me to learn basic math of Data Science very effectively but more math skills are required other than this maths skills!

It's a very nice course, but please could you provide answer keys to the final quizz? It would be very helpful to reinforce our learning

The last part of the course, week 4 is a bit short on example, more examples on how to calculate conditional probabilty will be helpful.

Easy and suitable for beginners with high school math skills. If how the equations are deduced are introduced, it would be even better.

I suggested to provide more examples based on calculation in week 4 parts (probability, bayes theorem), this will enhance this course.

Good video course and quizzes. Not too long.

Only remark is the code in the quizzes, sometimes fractions and formula's are not visible.

Good materials. But examples from learning sections are a lot easier than problems in quizzes. More difficult examples would be great.

Course is to the point nice course. But not PPT or study material is given from the tutor like notes .

Notes would be really helpfull

The probability part is not as clear as the previous ones with quizzes less easily solvable with the information given in the lecture

Week 1 - 5/5

Week 2 - 4/5

Week 3 - 3/5

Week 4 - 4/5

A good introductory course which could do better in explaining some concepts clearly.

Every data scientist needs to know some statistics and probability theory. The amount of math you'll need depends on the role.

Thanks,

It's a excellent course with all of the basic concepts to start in the Data Science World.

Great regards and thank you for the course.

It was a good course for a beginner.But I think the proportion of the course allocated to probability is much less than it deserve.:)

it's a good choice for anyone who wants to refresh or enforce his knowledge, even to discover what math skills a data scientist need

Very comprehensive and challenging - I feel a final quiz would be great but individually, very well though out content and questions

Decent introduction to the math skills. Once this course got to the probabilities section, the difficulty substantially increased.

The course offers a good insight to the maths skills utilized in Data Science. WIll be looking to program all concepts learnt here.

A very great course for begginners but it would be great if the math skills could be elaborated closer to the real world examples.
