Intro to Python for Data Science

I have recently decided to expand my knowledge of data science.  To accomplish this goal, I have enlisted myself in the career track- Data Scientist with Python by DataCamp.  I have just finished the first course, Intro to python for data science.  Data Camp's method for teaching combines videos, light reading and interactive exercises to move through the course.  The course had and estimated time of 4 hours to complete.  The intro course was just that, an introduction that did not need a coding background.  We began with the very basics of coding, including types, variables and functions.  We covered how to import the numpy package, and worked through some examples on how to use numpy with given data sets. I really enjoyed the delivery method of the course and will continue taking other courses from DataCamp. Each course gives you a Statement of accomplishment  which can be downloaded or shared directly to LinkedIn.  Anyone can try the introduction course for free.
