Daily Data Science Tip — #5

Data Scientists can’t escape Algorithms.

There’s this notion that algorithms have a high level of complexity. Well, that’s far from the truth. Algorithms are just like any other Data Science areas; you have to dedicate some time and effort to become proficient.

Here are some benefits of learning algorithms:

• Be prepared for job interviews. Most job interview process involves coding tasks, typically an algorithm related task.
• Gain the intuition on how to implement memory-efficient programs.
• Gian the knowledge on how to traverse and modify data structures in an efficient manner.
• Practising the implementation of algorithms is one of the recommended ways to sharpen your programming skills.
