This Linux training course, “Using and Administering Linux – Zero to SysAdmin,” is significantly different from other courses. It consists of three volumes. Each of these three volumes is closely connected, and they build upon each other. This Linux training course differs from others because it is a complete self-study course. You should start at the beginning of Volume 1 and read the text, perform all of the experiments, and do all of the chapter exercises through to the end of Volume 3. If you do this, even if you are starting from zero knowledge about Linux, you can learn the tasks necessary to becoming a Linux system administrator, a SysAdmin. These course materials can also be used as reference materials. I have used my previous course materials for reference for many years, and they have been very useful in that role. I have kept this as one of my goals in this set of materials. If you want to learn to be an advanced Linux user and even a SysAdmin, this course is for you. Most SysAdmins have an extremely high level of curiosity and a deep-seated need to learn Linux system administration.

Use popular data mining techniques in Microsoft Excel to better understand machine learning methods. Most software tools and programming language packages take data input and deliver data mining results directly, presenting no insight on working mechanics and creating a chasm between input and output. This is where Excel can help, and this book will show you exactly how. This updated edition demonstrates how to work with data in a transparent manner using Excel. When you open an Excel file, data is visible immediately and you can work with it directly. You’ll see how to examine intermediate results even as you are still conducting your mining task, offering a deeper understanding of how data is manipulated, and results are obtained. These are critical aspects of the model construction process that are often hidden in software tools and programming language packages. Anyone who is interested in learning data mining or Machine Learning, especially data science visual learners and people skilled in Excel who would like to explore Data Science topics and/or expand their Excel skills. A basic or beginner level understanding of Excel is recommended.
