Steps to start with Data Science

  1. Learn programming (Python, R etc)
  2. Learn basic statistics for data science
  3. Start projects as soon as you can
  4. Take notes on what algorithms and packages others use
  5. Learn the source code for the algorithms and try to implement them from scratch
  6. Work on more advanced projects where you collect your own data or use advanced concepts like deep learning, NLP, or computer vision.
