Doing Math with Python: Two more chapters in Early Access

by Amit

I am excited to share that the third and fourth chapters are available as part of the early access of my book Doing Math with Python.

Chapter 3: Describing Data with Statistics

As the title suggests, this chapter is all about the statistical measures one would first learn in high school – mean, median, mode, frequency table, range, variance, standard deviation and linear correlation are discussed.

Chapter 4: Algebra and Symbolic Math with SymPy

The first three chapters are all about number crunching. The fourth chapter introduces the reader to the basics of manipulating symbolic expressions using SymPy. Factorizing algebraic expressions, solving equations, plotting from symbolic expressions are some of the topics discussed in this chapter.

Trying out the programs

Using the Anaconda distribution (Python 3) should be the easiest way to try out all the programs in the book.
