Learn to display your data using Python's visualization toolsStatistics and visualization in Python can be applied to a wide variety of areas; having these skills is crucial for data scientists. In this course, we explore several core statistical concepts to utilize data; construct confidence intervals in Python and assess the results; discover correlations; and update your beliefs using Bayesian Inference.In this tutorial, you will discover how to use the Statsmodels, Matplotlib, pandas, and Seaborn Python libraries for statistical data visualization. Follow along with author—Dr. Karen Yang, a seasoned data scientist and data engineer—to explore, learn, and strengthen your skills in fundamental statistics and visualization. This course utilizes the Jupyter Notebook environment to execute tasks.By the end of this learning journey, you'll have developed a solid understanding of fundamental statistics and visualization concepts and will be confident enough to apply them to your data analysis projects.Please note that prior knowledge of Python programming and some familiarity with pandas and NumPy are needed in order to get the best out of this course.The code bundle for this course is available at About the AuthorKaren Yang has been a data engineer, an author, and a passionate self-learner of computer science for 7 years. She has 6-years' experience in Python programming and big data processing. Recently, she also has gained experience in cloud computing. Karen holds a PhD in Political Science from Ohio State University and loves working with data and performing analysis and research to gather meaningful information. This interest led her to publish data analysis research papers on Inferential Data Analysis on Tooth Growth and Predicting Activity for Samsung SensorData. She is also the author of the Apache Spark in 7-Days and Time Series Analysis with Python courses.
