Who this book is for
This book is for people who are looking to understand and utilize the basic practices of data science for any domain. The reader should be fairly well acquainted with basic mathematics (algebra, and perhaps probability) and should feel comfortable reading snippets in R/Python as well as pseudo code. The reader is not expected to have worked in a data field; however, they should have the urge to learn and apply the techniques put forth in this book to either their own datasets or those provided to them.
