Welcome back

Welcome to the second week in Data Science.

Last week, we looked at the sorts of skills a data scientist uses, considered the importance of asking questions in data science, learned some of the first steps in programming with Python, and saw how data is physically stored in a computer system.

This week

This week, we will explore:

• How to load your data into Python
• Using mathematics in Python
• Building basic graphical plots in Python
• Statistical thinking (including the idea of experimental design)
• Issues of bias and ethics in data science
• Data science in the real world

Your task

What are you most looking forward to exploring this week?
