Do share if you find one. CourseDrive and Freetutorials weren’t really helpful

You probably know this already but this is a really helpful book you should read if you haven’t

Thanks for this book...

For those interested...

And I was thinking the journey was almost over grin

Based on your above, are you’re performing the role of a core DBA at work? Knowing and using the knowledge is one thing but is it safe to assume that you’re also a DBA for your company?

I understand the message you’re trying to but tbh, I would like to avoid anything to do with a DBA but I can’t overlook it based on sentiments

I'm not , I'm a data analyst embarassed

In my opinion, employers asking for too much is a Nigerian thing. They want to use a stone to kill many birds. You employ a driver, he is also supposed to wash the car, the gateman also sweeps the environment and do some gardening. The domestic help is expected to clean, cook, do the nanny job and sometimes even sleep with the man of the house.
Anyway I digress. For a data analyst job, proficiency in Excel, SQL and MS power BI or tableau should get someone a job in a lot of organizations. Anyone with those skills should at least start applying for jobs and see where it goes

The truth is, software engineering is important in Data science and it depends on the employer

This is a life time thing...

The upskilling never ends ... Just when I thought I was solid in MySQL, they required MSSQL (which I did), now they're asking for data warehouse skills(which I am on as I speak)...

Met a guy on LinkedIn told him what I could do, but he succeeded in listing all the skills that I do not have (Google analytics, Databox, digital marketing tools, bigquery), I shook my head --- see my life!

We just have to take it one step at a time.

One could even merge software engineering with DA/DS...

I hardly see anyone talk about SPSS on this thread. Why is that so??

SPSS is majorly used in academia and I don't think most folks here are into project/dissertation/thesis analysis which mostly deals with inferential statistics.

Personally, I have not seen a reason to use SPSS. Excel, with it's various add-ins can give me what I want.

Please is there a clear distinction between thesis analysis(inference statistics) and data analysis??
I believe there is a form of correlation between the two.
Techniques like ( correlational , regression, ANOVA) I believe are synonymous to the two.

Which Telegram channel(s) can I get the ed files?

Search for @bot on telegram.


You can use it to get direct links for torrent files(you have to copy the torrent magnet link tho)

There's really no clear distinction between the two. Thesis analysis involves the use of both descriptive and inferential statistics, and in some cases, predictive analysis (which are types of data analysis). Therefore, thesis analysis is realized by using different data analysis types/forms.

I did an analysis on the nairaland data you scrapped... it's on my blog

thanks for sharing the dataset
That was really good. I immediately figured you used tidymodels while scrolling through. Nice job!

We should throw some challenges here from time to time. Get everyone spiced up on some topics in data science, R, machine learning concepts, bayesian statistics, etc.

Boss, abeg, aw were you able to convert the file to zip format. I actually dropped d torrent file on that page on telegram, only for it to me I only have access to 500MB (abi ). The utorrent is not making d any easier. I tried using seedr but it has a limit of 2GB. Make una gurus help me out
