• Data Scientist
  • Data science combines math and statistics, specialized programming, advanced analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning with specific subject matter expertise to uncover actionable insights hidden in an organization’s data.A data scientist is an analytics professional who is responsible for collecting, analyzing and interpreting data to help drive decision-making in an organization.

    Various skills required for becoming a succesful Data Scientist are as follows:

    1.Programming:
    i. Python,C++,C

    Programming languages, such as Python or R, are necessary for data scientists to sort, analyze, and manage large amounts of data (commonly referred to as “big data”). As a data scientist just starting out, you should know the basic concepts of data science and begin familiarizing yourself with how to use Python,C++,C,etc.

  • ii. R

    R is one of the most pervasive and well-used languages in data analytics. One poll conducted by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’s (IEEE) professional journal, Spectrum, found that R ranked fifth in a list of the top ten programming languages used in 2019.R’s syntax and structure were created to support analytical work; it encompasses several built-in, easy-to-use data organization commands by default. The programming language also appeals to businesses because it can handle complex or large quantities of data.

  • 2.Statistics and probability :

    In order to write high-quality machine learning models and algorithms, data scientists need to learn statistics and probability. For machine learning, it is essential to use statistical analysis concepts like linear regression. Data scientists need to be able to collect, interpret, organize, and present data, and to fully comprehend concepts like mean, median, mode, variance, and standard deviation. Here are different types of statistical techniques you should know: Probability distributions, Over and under sampling , Bayesian (or frequency) statistics.
