A very structured course to give basic and useful insight to the world of data analysis. From zero, one absorbs the possible levels of details and requirements to get into the world of data analysis.

It was a straight forward course.

Got a bit knotty mid-way, but majorly due to distraction with my schedule.

Peer grading part was fun also.
