Advancing Into Data Analytics From Excel To Python

Description:

Excel users will review the foundations of data analytics using Excel and then transfer and advance that knowledge to perform a complete data analysis using the Python programming language. You will learn how to conduct exploratory data analysis, data visualization and hypothesis testing, and you’ll learn how to use Python to access and manipulate Excel files. At the end of the course, you will be able to perform a complete data analysis using Python.
