Do ​​​​you want to learn ​​data science 44% faster?

​The new textbook Coffee Break NumPy leverages the scientifically proven way of puzzle-based learning to code!

"Students who were quizzed after studying a short text could recall significantly more information than students who were asked to reread it" (Karpicke, 2007b)

Fear of missing out on data science and machine learning?​ The trend of automation is not coming to a halt soon. Machines take over more and more traditional jobs from human workers.

But also highly-skilled knowledge workers such as doctors, traditional computer scientists, teachers, and financial analysts are under the danger to be replaced by machines.

This is the era of machine learning and data science.

And missing out on data science can be the #1 most costly mistake of your career.

​But you're in luck: this ​eBook package ​gives you a fun way to start learning data science with Python. ​It gives you a thorough introduction in one of Python's most important libraries for data science and machine learning: NumPy

​​I ​have written the book on the basis of the proven method of solving practical code puzzles and practice testing -- to make learning more fun, faster, and smarter.

And here's the best thing: practice testing is scientifically proven to generate ​up to 44% better learning retention and ​efficiency.​

So what's in it for you?

  • ​Understand ​NumPy code ​quickly.
  • Learn all the basic ​NumPy concepts and data structures.
  • Finally understand ​the most important NumPy functions and how to use them for practical problems.

As an additional bonus, you ​can track your individual ​NumPy coding skill level throughout the book. After reading the book, you'll know exactly how good you are in comparison to your ​friends and colleagues.

To get the most out of this book, you should ​know the basics of Python — e.g., you have already ​read ​my previous book "Coffee Break Python".

The book is packed with 211 pages of in-depth NumPy content:

  • ​4​6 educative code puzzles to test your skills and to make learning easy and fun!
  • ​10 tips for efficient learning​ to help you stop wasting time!
  • ​​1 NumPy cheat sheets to learn 80% of the language features in 20% of the space!
  • ​1 accurate way to measure your coding skills because clarity is the first step to success!
  • ​​[BONUS] 1 detailed NumPy ​tutorial for absolute beginners ​to get you started!

Have your "Coffee Break NumPy" now! ;)

Puzzle-based Learning Python

This book is the chess grandmaster way of learning Python. It offers you 127 unique and brand-new Python puzzles. Every puzzle points to gaps in your knowledge, challenges you to guess a solution, and then explains potential solutions, in an easy-to-understand manner:

~~~

# Here’s one example puzzle:

my_list = [1, 1, 1, 1]

my_list[1::2] = [2, 3]

print(my_list)

# What’s the output of this code snippet?

~~~

An easy, fun, and effective way of learning Python -- day after day -- in your COFFEE BREAK PYTHON!

Here's what research says about puzzle-based learning:

"Students who were quizzed after studying a short text could recall significantly more information than students who were asked to reread it"

-- Karpicke, 2007, Elsevier Journal of Memory and Language

Practice testing is scientifically proven to generate up to 44% better learning retention and efficiency.

Simply put: quizzes and puzzles work! More than 100,000 Finxters and thousands of "Coffee Break Python" book customers have already successfully improved their skills with code puzzles.

Learning does not happen in a linear and orderly manner. It's a probabilistic, chaotic, and iterative process of creating knowledge gaps in your brain -- and filling them with just the right information you need.

That's the premise of the "Coffee Break Python" textbook series.

What will you get out of the book?

  • Improve your level of deep Python code understanding.
  • Surprise your peers with your newly acquired code speed reading skills.

Data is the new oil -- whoever develops the skills to harvest this largely untapped asset class will increase their value in the 21st-century marketplace.

  • Computers and sensors create ever-growing data sets that become increasingly relevant in every part of our lives.
  • Smartphones collect billions of GPS traces that reveal valuable information towards new mobility solutions and truly smart cities.
  • Smartwatches track the heart rates of millions of people to detect health problems and prevent unnecessary deaths.
  • Intelligent cars collect myriads of sample data points that increase traffic efficiency, prevent millions of car accidents, and save humanity hundreds of millions of hours in traffic jams.

Due to Moore's Law -- the number of transistors on a microchip doubles roughly every two years -- it became financially viable to store, process, and analyze hundreds of terabytes of data.

By reading this book, you'll learn the powerful skill of analyzing and processing data with Python's Pandas framework.

This book is not a technical introduction to Blockchain technology; there's plenty of freely accessible material on that. Instead, this book makes the case that Blockchains will have at least as much economic impact in the 21st century as corporations in the 20th century.

The Blockchain Economy provides you different perspectives on the drastic potential of Blockchain technology to disrupt nearly every business or political system in existence today. 

Some of the ideas may appear evident to you; others may not yet. But in due time, many of them will be implemented in the real world by practitioners, programmers, and Blockchain architects. Myriads of new ideas and applications of Blockchain technology will see the light of the day. 

Due to the disruptive value proposition of providing permissionless, trusted, secure, and decentralized information management, these applications will create new blue oceans of opportunity, breaking out of the bloody red oceans of existing centralized financial infrastructures.

In particular, you'll learn about the economic impact of Bitcoin, decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), censorship-resistance, governance, and many more key Blockchain concepts--and their impact on today's economy.
