If you are an aspiring #DataAnalyst trying to get to grips with the mathematical foundations in #BusinessAnalytics, then let me recommend the Business Analytics course by Wharton Online, of which I am a freshly-baked graduate 😊 The course instructors do a phenomenal job bridging the gap between common business scenarios and the mathematical methods used to tackle them - an example of which is the math-grad-turned-marketing-wizard Peter Fader's 'flipping the death coin'💀 used to explain the behaviour of repeat customers in cohort analysis.
