Good evening guys..how do you get to stay motivated while learning when it gets too difficult. I paid for a course on udemy by 365datascience group which has a one month access and I am just 50 percent into the course not because of laziness but it seems too hard or could it be those 365 guys made it too hard? grin
I was really enjoying it but yesterday and today I started doubting if I can go further learning and I have just 9 days to the end of the one month subscription on udemy. I was just wondering now that I am less busy I still find it hard how will next year when I start my pharmacy internship be like. embarassed
So I ask again how do you guys stay motivated to learn...ejiod

Its normal as tutorials will not teach you all you need to learn. A lot of information coming up at a fast space especially when you are coming from non mathematical/engineering background.

Your resilience and being inquisitive will bail you out when this happen.

Google
Stackoverflow,
Github
Even TechTwitter
Kaggle
Data camp
Analytiv vidhya

Are resources I uses whenever I am stuck.

Try to explore these options.

It will be difficult to learn such a skill at a timed pace, get materials ed to ur local device and learn at ur own pace... it's better this way.

Lately, I have been looking to mining relationships that may be existent in the network of relationships possible on a thread on Nairaland. If we collected data from any one thread, say this thread for example, we can define relationships between posters who quote each other in reply to other posts. If many more posters quote each other frequently than they do others, it is possible they could form a cluster of relationship independent from other relationships on a thread. I tried to look at this problem as a spectral partitioning problem and used linear algebra to examine possible solutions.

So, I scraped the data from this programming post on Nairaland and tried to look for clusters of relationships visualized as a directed graph. The direction of the edges indicate who quotes who. We can define this as a relationship between source and target. A in the source column has made a post and quotes the target. Multiple quotes have been separated into separate observations. The first picture shows the kind of graph we expect. The second picture shows a sparse matrix defining the relationship between any two node. This is after symmetrizing the resultant matrix we obtain from the directed graph. The last picture shows the cluster we form using the second smallest eigenvector of the Laplacian of the matrix. This is also known as the Fielder vector.

That last graph reveals the two groups inherent in the data based on interaction between posters. In this particular dataset, the main center of interaction is the original poster (OP) who is Paapii3d. The groups appear to be divided based on those who have or did not have interactions with the OP. When the individual groups are examined, we find that s clustered in the top left are less likely to have interacted with Paapii3d, while bulk of the other s are more likely to have interacted with the OP, or interacted with those who interacted with the OP. The average number of interactions in Group 0 is about 1.1, while the average number of interactions in Group 1 is much higher at 2.12.

This kind of solution can be used to identify communities in a graph, especially, as in this case, where there is a main center of attraction. I'm working on putting the notebook which goes into details about the solution approach on github. If anyone is interested, you can let me know and I'll send you the link.

Out of the 3,
One from from lekki asked me to analyze data as assessment of which I pythonize grin it,running pandas and Power BI on it.Had to utilize all my skills to solve the problem.This was a big edge I had over others.Some excel s will be calling theirselves data analyst but they are just far from it... before you knew it,in just a week I got a notification that "Can I resume the following week" with a net pay of 180k. Damn!... I was so so happy... first data analyst job and the best thing about it was that it was remote..No transport, just me in my house and I report to boss every Friday what I've been doing.
Had to share my story too to freetutorials.us because they were helpful with tons of tutorials I ed from them.
Fast forward..4 month into the job damn, I started expanding and experimenting my skills. I became more of a Business intelligence developer. Before a year, I've toured round 15 states in Nigeria all by flight....
I loved what I was doing then,but one thing about remote job is that sometimes it may make you lazy and extravagant sometimes. Its then you will be thinking of going to cinema to watch film or event centers......





This is exactly who i was looking forward to meet. Am also in the thought process of transitioning in Data Analytics or at best arm my self with that extra skill. Am a lawyer but j want to also be a player in the tech and business field and i think Data/Business Analytics will be a great add-on skill for me.

i just have some questions and i will appreciate if you don't mind me reaching out to you offline to seek some guidance.

thanks

I suppose you've read this book since you have it. I'm currently on the second module and I'm having issues installing TensorFlow. I've installed Microsoft C++ distribution, and have added the installation to path but it's still not working. I've had this issue since yesterday.

Do you know any work around this? Thanks.
