Learn the basics of data science with Python, with this short course designed for students to follow along, and built around a concrete, real-world dataset
Listening to theoretical examples is never fun, and I've always liked actually applying what I learn to concrete examples, so this course is built around us analyzing a real-life dataset together. The dataset we'll be using is the "Parkinson's Disease Telemedicine dataset", and our goal will be to see if we can predict the severity of Parkinson's Disease in patients from just a dozen simple measurements, which would be a vast improvement over the current time consuming process that doctors and patients have to go through.
