About Mathematics for Data Science 2

Maths 2 is mostly linear algebra, and it is the single most reused subject in the programme — every machine learning course assumes you can handle vectors, matrices and their geometry fluently. It is worth over-learning rather than just passing.

Topics covered

  • Vectors and vector spaces
  • Matrices and matrix operations
  • Systems of linear equations
  • Determinants, eigenvalues and eigenvectors
  • Linear transformations and geometry
  • Applications to data

Where marks go: People treat matrix work as arithmetic and get lost; the questions reward knowing what a transformation does geometrically before you compute anything.

How to use these Maths 2 DS notes

  1. 1Read with the official Maths 2 DS course material open beside you. These notes are a second explanation, not a replacement — where they skip something, the course content is the authority.
  2. 2Work the examples yourself rather than reading the solutions. Notes you have only read feel familiar in the exam without being usable.
  3. 3Keep one condensed set for the final days before a quiz, and do not try to re-read everything.
