To succeed in data science you need some math proficiency. But not just any math. This common-sense guide provides a clear, plain English survey of the math you'll need in data science, including probability, statistics, hypothesis testing, linear algebra, machine learning, and calculus. Practical examples with Python code will help you see how the math applies to the work you'll be doing, providing a clear understanding of how concepts work under the hood while connecting them to applications like machine learning. You'll get a solid foundation in the math essential for data science, but more importantly, you'll be able to use it to: Recognize the nuances and pitfalls of probability math Master statistics and hypothesis testing (and avoid common pitfalls) Discover practical applications of probability, statistics, calculus, and machine learning Intuitively understand linear algebra as a transformation of space, not just grids of numbers being multiplied and added Perform calculus derivatives and integrals completely from scratch in Python Apply what you've learned to machine learning, including linear regression, logistic regression, and neural networks

Dzisiejsze firmy gromadzą ogromne ilości danych. Dane te jednak mogą przynieść wymierną korzyść jedynie wtedy, gdy są w odpowiedni sposób przechowywane, należycie zabezpieczone i jeśli się umie z nich skorzystać. Bywa, że przeszukiwanie dużych zbiorów danych i odnajdywanie w nich potrzebnych informacji czy ich przetworzenie staje się nie lada wyzwaniem. Wtedy, gdy poczciwy arkusz Excela staje się niewystarczający, doskonale sprawdzają się relacyjne bazy danych, które najczęściej można obsłużyć za pomocą instrukcji pisanych w języku SQL.Wielu osobom nauka języka SQL może przysparzać problemów. Trzymasz w ręku świetnie napisany podręcznik, który ułatwi Ci to zadanie! Przewodnik przedstawia praktyczne sposoby wykorzystania języka SQL bez zagłębiania się w techniczne szczegóły jego działania. Najwięcej miejsca poświęcono na ćwiczenia z rzeczywistymi bazami danych. Książka ta pomaga nie tylko w uzyskaniu praktycznej wiedzy o pracy z bazami danych, ale także o ich wykorzystywaniu do rozwiązywania problemów biznesowych.Thomas Nield — programista i analityk o wieloletnim doświadczeniu.
