I Failed Calc But I Can Do Data Engineering Math And So Can You

<h1>&ldquo;What&rsquo;s With All The Letters?&rdquo;</h1> <p>One of my favorite stories my grandfather tells goes like this: Sometime in the mid 1950s as a high school freshman he steps into a classroom, sees an algebraic expression on the board and asks his teacher: &ldquo;I thought this is math. What&rsquo;s with all of those letters?&rdquo;</p> <p>Decades later I waged my own battles against math, its problems and the increasingly frustrated but saintly individuals who attempted to teach me.</p> <p>My struggle continued into data science grad school where my passion for shaping and presenting data far outweighed my willingness to apply mathematical proofs to ML models.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/pipeline-a-data-engineering-resource/i-failed-calc-but-i-can-do-data-engineering-math-and-so-can-you-7a850ba6cb5b"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
