Hello Professor, thank you for this video. After talking with a few of my cousins who are majoring in computer science, I learned that understanding data analysis and python are helpful in obtaining jobs in both economic and research settings. When I first read in the syllabus that we were learning python, I became very excited since I have been wanting to learn it for a while now. I was not aware that python could create models for the data you input, so this must be very helpful for researchers in fields like economics and public health who want a modeled depiction of their work. I look forward to learning more about python in your course and through datacamp.

Learning Python has been very interesting so far! This is my first time I have ever heard about Python. It has been very interesting seeing how in depth Python goes when doing assignments on DataCamp. I am excited to learn more!

The more I earn about Python, the more I consider data science as a must for a finance researcher due to time savings

I have had some experience using both stata and phython. I have to say that phython is more user friendly and easier to work with. The fact that you can access it through google is also very convenient as well.
