how can i learn data science ? - Page 3

To learn data science, start with online courses on platforms like Coursera or edX,

Hey! 😊 I’m Ruhi.
When I started looking into data science, I found it easiest to break it down into steps. I first learned some Python basics, then got comfortable with Pandas and Matplotlib to play with datasets. After that, I brushed up on stats (mean, median, probability, correlation) and slowly moved into simple machine learning models like regression and decision trees.

The biggest help was working on small projects from Kaggle — like predicting house prices or analysing tweets — and sharing them on GitHub. It’s a great way to learn while building a portfolio.

If you’re just starting, I’d suggest: start with Python → practice with data → learn some stats → try basic ML → keep building projects.

Honestly, data science is quite tough it was one of the hardest subjects for me back in university. I usually learned most of the concepts from YouTube; there are some really great channels that explain things in a simple, practical way.

Hi Ruhi,
Data science is something you can learn step by step. A good place to start is building a strong foundation in statistics and probability, because these are used a lot when working with data and making predictions. After that, learning Python and practicing with small datasets really helps. I personally found starting with a beginner statistics and probability course (available on GattPrep and also on Udemy) very useful before moving into Python and data analysis.
