Mathematics for Data Scientist

Mathematical for Data Scientist

To excel in the field of data science, especially as a data scientist, I would recommend you have good command over the topics mentioned below. There are many YouTube channels that you can use for this purpose. Because this is 10+2 level mathematics, and it is just a matter of revision. So I am not offering any course unless there is a specific need for some group, organization.
