Principales reseñas sobre FOUNDATIONS OF DATA SCIENCE: K-MEANS CLUSTERING IN PYTHON
por AH3 de jun. de 2020
I love this course as it gives me the foundations of learning the Python coding program and relevant statistical methods that used for data analysis. It's really interesting course to attend to.
por GR9 de sep. de 2019
184/5000 Conferences of very good quality, and the platform for practices is really useful to put the theory into practice. I recommend this course if you want to start in data science.
por SS29 de jun. de 2020
A well presented and interesting course. It would have been good to have some more complex examples with the thinking behind them - the exploratory bit/intelligent bit of the process.
por BO3 de jul. de 2020
Highly recommended to anyone who wants to delve into data science. The instruuctors, the universities and Coursera team are well dedicated and the course is of high quality.
