The most important takeaway from this class was being exposed to Tableau. Also getting exposed to different things in excels like macros or pivot tables. Learning of different technologies is always a great to increase value to a prospective employer.

A mistake that I have made a few times is a converting error in excel. In looking at large data sets from various online sources the columns can be configured as anything. A common thing with excel files easily is to convert each column into text(string) values even if there are numbers in the rows to make for easy file transfer. So recently I was…[Read more]

My biggest takeaway from last week’s class on bias and signal problem is being aware of the data. The data that you have or you obtain should be questioned to check for its integrity.

The first conventional wisdom that comes to mind is “the more time you spend studying, the better you will do in class”. They conventional wisdom flat out states the greater the amount of time you spend studying the better you grades will be.
