WHAT IS DATA SCIENCE?
(Worth the read)

Data science is the study of information ( both numeric and non-numeric) gotten from somewhere, and how it can be translated into a possible solution or used to predict the future.

The demand for DATA SCIENCE EXPERTS, is on high demand, facebook depends on data to know how best to serve their users. Without data they can't be able to know the number of

- ACTIVE USERS on their platform .
- The NETWORK STRENGTH of their user's phone.
- The OPERATING SYSTEM of their user's device.
- The GEO-LOCATION of their users.
- The IDENTITY of their users, and so on.......

These data helps them to know how to serve you well, and the kind of advertisement that can be tailored to you based on your preference or activities on facebook ( I refer to this kind of data as the OIL WELL of facebook, that can never run dry), advertisement is one of their major source of generating revenue and they generate it through data.

Every business need DATA in order to thrive, without it you can't be able to track the progress of your business . Without data you can' be able to predict the future of every business.

The knowledge of data Science can be applied in the field of PROGRAMMING to model solutions to every sector of the economy.

The knowledge of data Science in ALGEBRA, can help you know when a country is about to enter into recession and how best to plan for it...

More and more revelations about DATA SCIENCE is coming.
Stay tuned!

THE WAY FORWARD

The demand for DATA DRIVEN TECHNOLOGY has soared high, especially during this pandemic. Facebook launched a survey asking users, their health status, whether they had symptoms of corona virus like cough and fever. Data gotten from this survey, was used to analyze the spread of coronavirus, help researchers in the development of corona virus vaccines and the impact it had on the economy.

It has also helped in developing contact tracing app, where a user would be alerted on any person he has come in contact with that has Corona virus.

NASA invited a group of coders and scientists to use data gotten from its earth observation, to develop solutions to corona virus issues.

The study of data Science and its application in programming is very vital in developing softwares that will bring solutions in the health sector, business circle, aviation sector, meteorologists, e.t.c.

The study of data Science and its positive impact on the economy cannot be quantified.

The knowledge of Algebra can be used to predict the net revenue of a company, the knowledge of ALGEBRA is one of the pre-requisite to be a good DATA SCIENTIST.

APPLICATIONS
(Predicting Net Revenue)

The net revenue of Harley-Davidson, Inc. was $5.02 billion in 2004 and $5.34
billion in 2005. Using only this information, write a linear equation that models
the net revenue in terms of the year. Then predict the net revenue for 2006.
(Source: Harley-Davidson, Inc.)

SOLUTION

let t = 4 represent 2004
Then the two given values are represented by the data
points (4, 5.02) and (5, 5.34) The slope of the line through these points is

m = 5.34 - 5 02 / 5 - 4

m = 0.32
Using the point-slope form, you can find the equation that relates the net revenue y and the year t to be


y - y1 = m(t - t1)

y - 5.34 = 0.32(t - 5)

y - 5.34 = 0.32t - 1.6

y = 0.32t + 3.74

Using this equation, a prediction of the net revenue in 2006 (t = 6) is

y = 0.32(6) + 3.74 = $5.66 billion.

As a good data scientist you have to be know and define with examples, the following.

1) Irrational numbers
2) rational numbers
3) Non-integer fractions
4) Integers
5) Negative Integers
6) Whole numbers
7) Natural numbers


Lots to learn for any individual aspiring to be a data scientist

The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) says he hopes the coronavirus pandemic will be over in under two years.

People who have knowledge on data science and it's application in programming will be highly sought for all over the world without visa restrictions, we need to start exporting tech skills.

No matter your knowledge on programming, you can't be highly sought for without knowledge on data structure.
Re: What Is Data Science And Its Application by chrisUmendeche: 11:34am On Aug 23, 2020
The term POSITIVE INTEGER are natural numbers. Example {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6............}

Examples of NEGATIVE INTEGERS
......... -3, -2, -1

The term REAL NUMBERS are set of numbers used in arithmetic

Example: 1, 2, -1, 1/2.... are all real numbers.

The term real numbers, distinguishes it from IMAGINARY NUMBER

The inflation rate in Nigeria is about 12.8%. This time for research and innovation. I see Nigeria oil becoming forever useless in the next two years.
Elon Musk of Tesla is producing electric solar powered cars at an increasing rate, he's even licensing his software to car manufacturing company, his cars is circulating all over Europe. Tesla is among the most valuable company in the world, investors are really funding him. The chinese government are really throwing their weight behind him. His cars are cheaper than TOYOTA.

Chinese govt are funding startups venturing into electric car production. My prayers from day one is for Nigeria oil to become more useless day by day, so that creative people should be the only people to survive in this country. My prayers are already working . Things have to be worst, for things to become better.

The only thing that will save Nigeria is research and innovation.


Everyone should be serious minded and creative this time around.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS makes use of users data . Google analytics is a software owned by google, it helps to monitor the activities that goes on in a website. It keeps record of ACTIVE USERS, SESSION, BOUNCE RATE, TRAFFIC CHANNEL and so on.........

This datas help website owners actually know what is going in their website and how to improve it.

Let's say for example you have a BOUNCE RATE of 60% from the data gotten from your google analytics about your website. Bounce rate is what happens when a user visit your website. When a user visit your website without visiting any other pages, this shows that your website may have a poor loading speed: What you have to do in this scenario is to check for the sizes of the images in your website, if they are too large, you can compress it with free online tools without affecting the quality of the image.

- You can also compress the size of your HTML files, CSS files and JavaScript files if they are large.

- Do not upload video directly in your website, it will increase the amount of data users have to download to access your website. Consider using a video sharing platform like youtube to upload your video, then embed it or link it to your website.



Another factors that can lead to BOUNCE RATE is lots of animations. Animations are distracting for some users, if you want animated content in your website, use it moderately.

I currently work with diib Nigeria an affiliate with diib U.S.A, a data analytics company . I work as a GROWTH EXPERT . When it comes to data, am pretty good at it.


I Will be teaching about data Science in our group and how to analyze data. You can also hook up with me on WhatsApp. stay tuned.

You don't look down on a man fully prepared and waiting for a Quantum Leap. He's not after the Money Making Syndrome of this world. He's not motivated by the demonic spirit of Greed that Plague and destroy this world.

People judge by the physical appearance of men, judge by the status of men, judge by the financial capability of men, but wait the Quantum Leap does not require a "hasty spirit".

The Quantum leap is a leap that requires the Alter of Preparation, Patient heart, Focus mind and the Place of suffering.

Few people run with the vision God has for their lives, they have been subjected to that demonic influence and pierced theirselves with many sorrows, oh what a World!
