Why Data Science?

Along with the development of technology and a business, the data and information that is created every day is also increasingly massive. So, to store and process this massive data requires “Data Science”, a science that uses programming concepts and tools from computer science with calculations based on mathematics and statistics. By learning data science, we will be able to analyze, gain insight from the data, and increasing our problem solving skill. So that the data can be used as “the new oil”, not only provided in numbers but can be used to explore something new other than just reporting. Apart from that, we can use this data to forecast something and tell about what challenges the business will be face in the future.

Python: Basic Programming Language

In a simple way: write the code (input)>> execute>> result(output)

What python can do?
1. Python can do simple calculations

python will show “5” as the output

2. In just one cell, we can write more than one code and python will execute it line by line from the beginning.

3. Python is unable to execute code if the code is invalid.

4. We can add comments to help other people can easily read and understand the code by adding hashtags before sentences. So the sentence after the hashtag will not be executed by python.

I’m open to any discussion, do let me know!
