Practical Statistics for Data Scientists
This content of this book is extremely useful resource for learning and understand statistical concepts and techniques. It is great to see how Python and R codes are implemented for each concept, but only the snippet of codes are provided on many examples in the book. Fortunately, the publisher provides the whole codes by chapter. The widely used Python packages (pandas, numpy, scipy, statsmodels, sklearn, matplotlib, seaborn, and more) and R libraries can be easily located in each chapter and index.
