“I can’t believe how easily and clearly complex material is presented on Dataquest. Dataquest explains them more clearly than all other resources.”
In this course, you’ll build on “Introduction to Programming with Python.” You’ll learn to repeat a process using “for loops”; how to use conditional statements such as if, else, and elif; how to employ logical operators and comparison operators; and how to use Jupyter Notebook.
Best of all, you’ll learn by doing — you’ll practice and get feedback directly in the browser. You’ll apply your skills to several guided projects involving realistic business scenarios to build your portfolio and prepare for your next interview.
