PyDataMCR - Data FAQs with the UK Data Service

In this webinar, frequently asked questions in relation to data industries will be discussed.

Some questions come up again and again in relation to data industries. Questions like:

 

Should I learn R or Python?

How reproducible should my work be? What steps should I take to make it so?

Does SQL have a place in Data Science?

How much of your work involves "Big Data"?

 

As these questions come up so frequently, the UK Data Service is maintaining a Data FAQs resource where interested people can ask such questions or peruse previously asked questions to find carefully curated answers.

To kick-start this resource, PyDataMCR is collaborating with the UK Data Service to host a panel of experts. They will discuss these prompts, and others submitted prior to the panel event, in order to crowd-source some detailed answers.

The panel:

Eslene Bikoumou

Tom Liptrot
