Data Science: is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from data in various forms, similar to data mining. Data science is a concept to unify statistics, data analysis, machine learning and their related methods in order to understand and analyze actual phenomena with data. It uses various techniques and theories drawn from many fields within the context of mathematics, statistics, information science, and computer science.
