The love of experimenting is vital. Most individuals new to data science still crave planning typical for other activities.

The concept of data as a wilderness is one of the most compelling reasons for using the term ‘data science’ instead of outdated terms like ‘data mining’. We focus on the scientific method in this part of the course. This is not a new topic, as scientists have conducted scientific research for centuries. The difference, however, is that today we live in a data jungle with significantly more data. This tremendous amount of data allows us to gain powerful knowledge without leaving our office or home. We must use the scientific method to get to data’s truth and valuable answers—there’s no way around that.
