Where Can I Find Helpful Resources for Data Science and Machine Learning?

[inducer27]

How did you find PF?

Just did a search for best math help sites on Google

I've worked in digital media and finance. The former was at CNET and CBS Interactive and the latter was at a tech oriented hedge fund. I've always been an analyst, even when I managed teams of them. I recently went back to school to study data science part time. One reason I went back to school is my professional work has given me a much greater appreciation for the importance of understanding uncertainty. And that understanding needs to be built on a really large stack of mathematical knowledge. I don't mind putting in hard work on problems sets or proofs but sometimes I get stuck and grind my gears unproductively. Being able to come to a site like this and get 'unstuck' would be really appreciated.

Welcome to PF!

With respect to math, there's two good websites to checkout:
- Khan Academy math upto first year college (Calculus, Linear Algebra, Diff Equations and Stat)
- www.mathispower4u.com with similar catalogs of courses

These are the courses useful for Data Science and ML

There's a website:

https://towardsdatascience.com/

with a lot of good articles on Python and Data Science techniques.

Lastly, there's the 100 page ML book and the Hands-on ML Book with Python... that get right to the point of ML and Data Science techniques and algorithms.
