Am I the only person here who thinks data science is awesome? 😬

Not at all! Data science done well is fantastic!

I love data science! I used to do a lot of data engineering too.

@dfox: Cool.. I'm taking data science specialisation on coursera right now..what's your take on this? 🤔

@sukumargv awesome! Just data science in general or is it about something more specific? Also what language does it teach with?

I started getting into it when I began using graph databases, mainly Neo4j. If you haven't tried it I recommend it - you can do some pretty cool stuff.

They use R in the series. I have completed two courses in the specialisation. 7 more courses in the series to go. 😅
It's going good so far.

I'll try Neo4j as well. Thanks :)

@sukumargv nice, R is cool!

@dfox And, to complete the answer to your question, they teach exploratory data analysis, reproducible research, statistical inference, regression models and practical machine learning in the series. [all require R as prerequisite, some require non-calculus statistics background]

@himynameisbeni wow. That is a bold move. Math is tough! 😅
