Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review
Please do not hesitate to ask a question if you have dubious points. 
Requirements This is an introductory course for data science but not a course teaching Python language. Therefore, it will be easier if you have some experience in Python. However, students who have never used Python before are still encouraged to take this course if they are willing to spend more time and effort on the assignments!
We will use Google Colab so that you don't need to construct the Python environment in your local PC.
The lecture will mainly be held face-to-face and online based on special situations.
