In this course, you will learn to think like a data scientist and ask questions of your data. You will use interactive features in MATLAB to extract subsets of data and to compute statistics on groups of related data. You will learn to use MATLAB to automatically generate code so you can learn syntax as you explore. You will also use interactive documents, called live scripts, to capture the steps of your analysis, communicate the results, and provide interactive controls allowing others to experiment by selecting groups of data.

Performing Calculations
In this module you’ll write small pieces of code to extend your analysis. You’ll calculate summary statistics on groups of data and determine if variables are correlated. You’ll extend your ability to filter data to defining conditions across multiple variables. You’ll also modify categorical data to remove, combine, or create new categories to use for defining groups.

TOP REVIEWS FROM EXPLORATORY DATA ANALYSIS WITH MATLAB
by RMJul 27, 2020
Impressed with the usefulness of the methods covered. It was a survey course that had just enough depth to spark some interest. Will continue with the rest of the series.
by VSJul 14, 2020
The content of this course is just enough for proper understanding of the concepts and teaching methodology followed by the instructors is amazing and perfect.
by DAAug 24, 2020
Awesome course, they really take their time to explain simple concepts before going to more advanced ones. Besides, the Matlab community is there to help you with any problems you may have.
by SPSep 4, 2020
Great introductory course for Data Science in Matlab! easy to follow content and you really can learn how to analyze data with Matlab if you don't have any experience on this field. Recommend!
