CS250: Python for Data Science

The field of data science is quite diverse. Before getting into the technical details of the course, it is important to gain some perspective on how the pieces fit together. As you go through this section, remember that we are driving toward the nexus of coding implementations (in Python) for data analysis and modeling. As the course progresses, Python implementations will require a mixture of mathematical and visualization techniques. For now, use this introduction to order your understanding of the field.
