Note : If you wanna get an in depth understanding of basics of Probability and statistics using Python language, I recommend below courses in Coursera :- 1) Statistics with Python Specialization (University of Michigan) 2) Probability and Statistics for Machine Learning and Data Science (Deep Learning.AI) Coming to the point, If you are a beginner and you want a gist of key concepts in understanding Probability and Statistics with python, I think this is the best place to start off as you put all your learning skills at the end of the course's data analytics project , which is a very thoughtful step by google to make their potentials learners equip their resumes with great critical thinking projects. Thanks to Google !!
