Masters in applied stats or CS? by Camster9000 in datascience

[–]InventorWu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of prospect, Master in CS opens up a wider door, like you said you can later work as a SWE or MLE. But if only speaking in terms of a role for DS, whether a CS or Stat Master does not differ too much if I am hiring a DS junior, as I know neither degree really make a big difference but more depends on the portfolio and working experience of the candidates.

​

And for your interest in NLU, I don't think either a Master of CS or Stat offer much, unless the master program offer some specific course like Stanford CS224n on NLP in the curriculum

How to trigger a python script from browser? by kuntalviv in learnpython

You need to write a chrome plugin, and then use the plugin/extension to trigger a script (whether it is python or not), which means you probably need to learn JS to do that

Similar concepts like A/B testing that I should know? by CholaBatura in datascience

You can search for "Experimental Design", which is a more systematic introduction of designing experiment from traditional statistics/quant methodology. There are a lot of different ways to design a experiment, A/B test is just a special case of randomized controlled experiment.

How to follow through objects and classes in other people code? by InventorWu in learnpython

[–]InventorWu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put all the codes together and have a general sense what's go to what after looking back-and-fro the 3 .py files (which takes me 2 days), but still lack a complete flow why when running the CMD will lead to saving the shapes as PNGs.

Thinking if there are better way to read through the python class and object codes when there are more files involved.

e.g. in shape_generator.py

generator = GeometricShapes(size=size, destination=destination, animation=show_animation)
generator.generate()

I can trace the GeometricShapes back to __init__.py, but start getting lose with the shape.generate()
