    Learned a lot about Pandas and data manipulation! But some small points are not very clearly explained in the assignments. Going over the forum is necessary.

    The course is great for senior data analyst. However, you need to learn by yourself probability and statistics because they do not cover them in this course.

    It was a bit hard to use skill right after I learned, but it worth it!
