What’s the difference between data science and software engineering?
Here’s one definition: data-science code is made worse by being general/modular, software-eng is made better
Data sci is ad-hoc, often throwaway, so lends itself to tools like Jupyter notebooks really well. Trying to do data sci like software-eng is painful to watch 😂
