Julia for Data Science

High-performance scientific computing. Solve the 'two-language problem' by writing code as fast as C with the syntax of Python.

Julia is designed for speed. It solves the issue where developers prototype in Python but rewrite in C++ for performance. This course teaches you the Julia language features: Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation, Multiple Dispatch, and its powerful type system. You will learn to write high-performance code for scientific simulations, differential equations, and machine learning. Perfect for data scientists hitting the performance limits of Python.
