Hello, just wanted to introduce myself. I suppose I will be posting here soon because I'm taking an online course in data science on Udemy. Just learning the basics of python at the moment. Thought I would introduce myself because I can see myself in the future having some serious computer questions.

Thanks!

i’m doing an online course in front end development I get to use a command line and also a thing called an “IDE” which is probably a bit behind where most people in this forum are at and I kinda can’t wait to hang out and share my knowledge

I guess that's one of the tough things about this "coding" business that you lads love so much. you are so far from making anything interesting when you start... Its a tough prospect I must admit

That's supposed to be a good one OP.

I'm doing "Complete machine learning and data science bootcamp 2022" on Udemy. I got it for $10

I'd quite like to hear your experience with Odin project. Made anything cool?
I started to do that many many moons ago and didn't have the time or dedication.... I now have some free time.

lol 100% true

also stats are occasionally used for the public good

data science is mostly used to string together all of your discrete (and discreet) internet personae
