Data Science using Python

What is data science using Python?

Data Science using PythonData science is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods and systems to extract knowledge and insights from data in various forms. Since its inception, the Python programming language has been very popular and widely used for all kinds of applications and research. Python has also become one of the most preferred languages for data scientists in the world today. According to SlashData, 69% of machine learning developers and data scientists are applying Data Science using Python (compared to 24% of them using R).  The reason being, Python provides a large number of libraries to make your Data Science processes easier and more effective.
