Summary

Happiness, like many other subjective measures, is difficult to define. But with careful assumptions, many governments and businesses can analyse subjective data and use it to improve future growth or the lives of their citizens. In this course, you will learn how the assumptions are made and how data scientists analyse reliable sources of data, ultimately finding a measure of how happy people are in your country.

You'll Learn To

Solve a real problem using the computational thinking process

Make assumptions and define the problem precisely

Choose and apply real tools to find answers

Interpret the results of the analysis and present an opinion based upon evidence

Assess the reliability of primary and secondary sources of data

Convert subjective data into quantifiable measures
