Course Overview

If you're looking to grow your career in machine learning or data science in this day and age, adding a powerful library to your skill set is an important place to start. In that vein, Python has become one of the most widely used tools in the industry for serious data analytics, and NumPy is probably the most widely used data analytics library. With NumPy, you can manipulate data involving multi-dimensional arrays and matrices (think linear algebra). Join us as we venture into the vast world of NumPy in t...Show More
