This course will dig deeper into some of the core functionality of Google Sheets. There's a whole bunch of predefined functions we'll cover, like `SUM()` and `AVERAGE()`, and `VLOOKUP()`. We'll apply these techniques to do some analysis on your grades in school, look at performance statistics within a company, track monthly sales, and look at some real geographical information about the countries of the world.

Learn how to analyze data with spreadsheets using functions such as SUM(), AVERAGE(), and VLOOKUP().

Data Analysis in Spreadsheets

Spreadsheet software is one of the most popular and powerful tools in data analysis. Millions of people use tools like Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel on a daily basis. Even the most experienced data scientists often started their careers with spreadsheets and still use it to test assumptions or to look at data for the first time. In this course, you will learn the basics of spreadsheets by working with rows, columns, addresses, and ranges. You will create your own formulas and learn how to use references.

Intermediate Spreadsheets

Working with large quantities of data in spreadsheets can be difficult and time-consuming. Have you ever wished there was a quick and efficient way to organize and evaluate your data within seconds? Pivot Tables are your answer! In this course we will explore the world of Pivot Tables within Google Sheets, and learn how to quickly organize thousands of datapoints with just a few clicks of the mouse. We will analyze the Average rainfall across multiple US cities, the Top 10 of the Fortune Global 500, and a selection of Films released between 2010 and 2016. You will learn techniques such as sorting, subtotaling, and filtering your data using these real world examples. By the end of the course, you will be able to create your own custom pivot tables with datasets of any size!

The role of a data scientist is to turn raw data into actionable insights. Much of the world's raw data—from electronic medical records to customer transaction histories—lives in organized collections of tables called relational databases. To be an effective data scientist, you must know how to wrangle and extract data from these databases using a language called SQL . This course teaches syntax in SQL shared by many types of databases, such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, and Oracle. This course teaches you everything you need to know to begin working with databases today!

Master the basics of querying tables in relational databases such as MySQL, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL.

Learn the basics of syntax in SQL, how to extract and wrangle data, and use querying tables in relational databases like MySQL, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL.

The Unix command line has survived and thrived for almost 50 years because it lets people do complex things with just a few keystrokes. Sometimes called "the universal glue of programming," it helps users combine existing programs in new ways, automate repetitive tasks, and run programs on clusters and clouds that may be halfway around the world. This course will introduce its key elements and show you how to use them efficiently.

Version control is one of the power tools of programming. It allows you to keep track of what you did when, undo any changes you decide you don't want, and collaborate at scale with other people. This course will introduce you to Git, a modern version control tool that is very popular with data scientists and software developers, and show you how to use it to get more done in less time and with less pain.

This course is an introduction to version control with Git for data scientists. 

Discover Git, a popular and modern version control tool for data scientists, and how you can use it work more efficiently, quickly, and with fewer errors.

You have access to a database. Now what do you do? Building on your existing skills joining tables,  using basic functions, grouping data, and using subqueries, the next step in your SQL journey is  learning how to explore a database and the data in it.  Using data from Stack Overflow, Fortune 500 companies, and 311 help requests  from Evanston, IL, you'll get familiar with numeric, character, and date/time data types. You'll use  functions to aggregate, summarize, and analyze data without leaving  the database. Errors and inconsistencies in the data won't stop you!  You'll learn common problems to look for  and strategies to clean up messy data. By the end of this course, you'll be ready to start exploring your  own PostgreSQL databases and analyzing the data in them.

Learn how to explore what's available in a database: the tables, relationships between them, and data stored in them.

Learn what's available in a database in SQL, including the tables, relationships, and data stored in them so you can explore your own PostgreSQL databases.
