Intermediate Python for Data Science
This course builds upon CoRise's Intro to Python for Data Science course, and dives deeper into data visualization and foundations of machine learning. You'll learn how to use core data science libraries - Scikit-learn, and Plotly. At the end of the course you'll have a portfolio of data science applications in Streamlit that you can use to showcase your learning!
