Book6_First-Course-in-Data-Science is an open-source educational project that serves as part of the “Iris Book” series focused on teaching data science and machine learning concepts through a combination of mathematics, programming, and visualization. The repository contains draft chapters, supporting Python code, and visual materials designed to guide readers from basic mathematical operations toward practical machine learning understanding. The goal of the project is to make complex topics such as statistics, algorithms, and data analysis more accessible to learners by breaking concepts into clear explanations supported by code examples and diagrams. The material emphasizes a learning approach that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on experimentation, often recommending interactive tools such as Jupyter notebooks to explore the ideas presented in the book.
