Meilleurs avis pour BASIC DATA PROCESSING AND VISUALIZATION
A really good course to learn data preprocessing before implementing the machine learning module.
If someone wants to make their carrier in Data science,It is one fundamental course towards it. The course is good with engaging assignments,quizzes and projects.
This course is more rewarding than I thought. The instructors give step by step explanation of the process also the syllabus of the course is just perfect, Highly recommended.
I wish the lectures are a bit more engaging. But content-wise it is good.
