More and more organizations are turning to data science to help guide business decisions. Regardless of industry, the ability to extract knowledge from data is crucial for a modern business to stay competitive. One of the tools at the forefront of data science is the Python® programming language. Python's robust libraries have given data scientists the ability to load, analyze, shape, clean, and visualize data in easy to use, yet powerful, ways. This course will teach you the skills you need to successfully use these key libraries to extract useful insights from data, and as a result, provide great value to the business.
In this course, you will use various Python tools to load, analyze, manipulate, and visualize business data.
You will:
Set up a Python data science environment.
Manage and analyze data with NumPy arrays.
Manipulate and modify data with NumPy arrays.
Manage and analyze data with pandas DataFrames.
Manipulate, modify, and visualize data with pandas DataFrames.
Visualize data with Matplotlib and Seaborn.

Pros
Easy to Learn:
The learning curve is very mild and the language is versatile and fast to develop.
Massive Libraries:
You can find a library for basically anything: from web development, through game development, to machine learning.
Do More with Less Code:
You can build prototypes and test out ideas much quicker in Python than in other language
|
Cons
Speed Limitations: It is an interpretive language and therefore much slower than compiled languages. Problems with Threading: Multi-threaded CPU-bound programs may be slower than single-threaded ones do to the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) that allows only one thread to execute at a time. Weak on Mobile: Although, there are a number or libraries that provide a way to develop for both Android and iOS using Python currently Android and iOS don’t support Python as an official programming language. |
