Second course in the CDS DS-110-210 sequence. The first half of DS 210 continues the Python programming experience begun in DS-110, with enhanced focus on machine learning applications. The second half of the course introduces students to compiled programming languages, such as Rust, Go and Java, suitable for building large projects. Basic data structures (stacks, queues, priority queues, binary search trees), techniques for representing graphs, and basic graph algorithms will be explored. Concepts are developed and reinforced through consideration of data-driven inquiries in real-world settings. Effective Spring 2022, this course fulfills a single unit in each of the following BU Hub areas: Quantitative Reasoning II, Digital/Multimedia Expression, Creativity/Innovation.
