Who this book is for

This book is for people with basic knowledge of Python and Mathematics who want to learn how to use Python software to analyze data. We try to keep things simple, but it's not possible to cover all the topics in great detail. It may be useful for you to refresh your knowledge of Mathematics via Khan Academy, Coursera, or Wikipedia.
