    Loving ur channel so far. Sports analytics (basketball) is the reason im getting into data science. I participated in the NBA hackathon last year, making it to second phase. I plan on continuing my studies and go to the hackathon every year. Keep up the great work, loving these type of videos

    Ken, love the content brother! Any chance you know a resource for analyzing running(e.g. marathoning) data? Also, is that an Oura ring you're wearing? Thanks!

    • @KenJee_ds
      @KenJee_ds  4 роки тому +1

      I haven't experimented with that type of data before, but I would be interested to! It will probably take me quite some time ( I have quite a few projects in the queue), but I would definitely like to look into a project related to that type of data. I was actually planning on running a marathon this year until I tore my MCL & PCL. Yes it is an Oura ring! I really like it!

    #53: This is so valuable, thank you. I'm now reading Mathletics but I was wondering if you have found out books or information related to Endurance/Power Sports Disciplines (Track & Field, Swimming, Marathon, Weightlifting, etc.)
    Thank you for sharing all that info, how much take for you to read all that books?

    @HawkingRegime13 4 роки тому

    Are there basic skills, interests or talents you possessed that kind of lead you to say, yeah, I want to make a leap into programming, analytics, data science? I ask because there are so many people out there including myself that are interested in sports analytics and fascinated by it, but I'm not certain I could actually contribute to the field or am a good fit for it if that makes sense. I'm currently Junior and Advertising major in college and would appreciate any advice you could pass along! Thank you!

    • @KenJee_ds
      @KenJee_ds  4 роки тому

      Great question. Honestly, the best way to figure out if it is a fit or makes sense is to experiment a little bit. In college I never took any programming. I tried some code academy afterwards and found that I enjoyed it. This lead me to try more things related to the field.
      I think that as long as you are interested in problem solving and are willing to stick to something, even if it is frustrating, this field could be for you.
      I hope this helps!
