A workshop-style collection of Jupyter notebooks teaching the math behind data science (statistics, linear algebra, calculus) through hands-on Python coding. It covers hypothesis testing, supervised learning, and unsupervised learning with a code-first 'hacker's way' approach.

Use cases

  • learn statistics for data science
  • brush up on linear algebra for machine learning
  • understand the math behind regression and PCA
  • learn hypothesis testing with Python code
  • prepare for a data science career as a programmer
  • teach a data science math workshop

When to choose

  • you learn best by writing code rather than reading proofs
  • you're a programmer transitioning into data science
  • you want a practical, application-driven intro to ML math
  • you want runnable notebooks you can explore in Binder

When to avoid

  • you need a rigorous, proof-based mathematics textbook
  • you want comprehensive coverage of modern deep learning
  • you need actively maintained course content - the material dates from 2017
  • you're an absolute beginner with no programming background
