Python for Finance Analyze Big Financial Data
by Yves Hilpisch
Our Review/Thoughts
This is a great book if you have a basic knowledge of Python and financial applications
Helpful explanations of realistic python programming in industry
a few weeks later I took another course in Finance Engineering
I only wish some of the textbooks that I used in grad school had been so well laid out
In addition, this book shows how the latest trends and fads are being followed using Python (PCA, Bayesian MC, Web-based apps)
Quite a bit of code interspersed with explanations that will appeal to diverse audiences
