Cs3353 Foundations of Data Science L T P C 3 0 0 3

This document outlines the course objectives and content for a Foundations of Data Science course. The course contains 5 units that cover topics such as data science processes, describing and analyzing relationships in data, Python libraries for data wrangling, and data visualization. Students will learn basic statistical and probability concepts, perform descriptive analytics on benchmark datasets, and apply correlation and regression analyses. The accompanying laboratory course involves hands-on experiments with Python packages like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib to work with datasets and visualize data.
