Frequently asked questions

It's well-reviewed and recommended for project-oriented learners — Fox and Guestrin's lectures are often called some of the best online. Just note some topics (like SVMs and random forests) get limited coverage across the series.
Some Python and basic maths (linear algebra, statistics) make it much smoother. It's hands-on, so you'll be coding the methods.
You can audit the full course free on Coursera. A certificate and graded assignments require a subscription.
It's the regression-focused course, following the foundations course and preceding the classification and clustering courses.
You code — the case studies have you implement and apply regression methods in Python, which is what makes the material stick.
