What is a data scientist?
If I am going to create a blog about becoming a data scientist, I must at least provide some type of definition. One of the best definitions I have read is by Hilary Mason, Chief Scientist at Bit.ly, A data scientist is someone who can obtain, scrub, explore, model and interpret data, blending hacking, statistics,…
