Careers in Data Science



Machine Learning Scientist: Machine learning scientists research new methods of data analysis and create algorithms.

Data Engineer: Data Engineers prepare the “big data” infrastructure to be analyzed by Data Scientists. They are software engineers who design, build, integrate data from various resources, and manage big data.

Data Analyst: Data analysts utilize large data sets to gather information that meets their company’s needs.

Data Consultant: Data consultants work with businesses to determine the best usage of the information yielded from data analysis.

Data Architect: Data architects build data solutions that are optimized for performance and design applications.

Applications Architect: Applications architects track how applications are used throughout a business and how they interact with users and other applications.

What is difference between "inplace = True" and "inplace = False?

Both inplace= true and inplace = False are used to do some operation on the data but: When  inplace = True  is used, it performs operation on data and nothing is returned. df.some_operation(inplace=True) When  inplace=False  is used, it performs operation on data and returns a new copy of data. df = df.an_operation(inplace=False)

Data Science foundation

Data science is an interdisciplinary field focused on extracting knowledge from data sets, which are typically large. The field encompasses analysis, preparing data for analysis, and presenting findings to inform high-level decisions in an organization.  As such, it incorporates skills from computer science, mathematics, statistics, information visualization, graphic design, complex systems, communication and business. Statistician Nathan Yau, drawing on Ben Fry, also links data science to human-computer interaction: users should be able to intuitively control and explore data.  In 2015, the American Statistical Association identified database management, statistics and machine learning, and distributed and parallel systems as the three emerging foundational professional communities

Machine Learning

Machine learning (ML) is the study of computer algorithms that improve automatically through experience. It is seen as a subset of artificial intelligence. Machine learning algorithms build a mathematical model based on sample data, known as "training data", in order to make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed to do so. Machine learning algorithms are used in a wide variety of applications, such as email filtering and computer vision, where it is difficult or infeasible to develop conventional algorithms to perform the needed tasks. Machine learning is closely related to computational statistics, which focuses on making predictions using computers. The study of mathematical optimization delivers methods, theory and application domains to the field of machine learning. Data mining is a related field of study, focusing on exploratory data analysis through unsupervised learning. In its application across business problems, machine learning is also refer...
