Data Science Bootcamp

Working materials for the Data Science Bootcamp developed by the Institute of Data Science at Maastricht University

Binder python

The following examples and implementations are not general Data Science rather financial use cases.


Bootcamp Goals

  • Introduce the basics of the python programming environment such as functions, reading and manipulating CSV files, and the NumPy library.
  • Introduce data manipulation techniques using pandas data science library.
  • Introduce the abstraction of the Series and DataFrame as the central data structures for data analysis.
  • Develop a general understanding of data formats and representations.
  • Get an overview of some python visualization packages.
  • Learn how to perform a data science pipeline and their best use cases.

Quick Access to the Notebooks

1. Data Science with Python
2. Intro to Internet Parsing
3. Data Wrangling with Pandas
4. Exploratory Analysis and Visualization in Python
5. Plotly Express: a Walkthrough

Some Other Cool Data Science Repositories

Python for Data Science

  • Python is an open-source high-level, interpreted, programming language.

  • A data science/text analytics project may include everything from scraping data from the web, analyzing a mixture of text and numerical data, computing features, training a model, creating high-quality graphs, and then hosting a web app with results.

  • 70,000 libraries in the Python Package Index

  • It has a massive user community, who contribute to a large number of high-quality, well maintained open-source tools.

  • Widely used in industry and academia.
