I`m keen to update my knowledge on data analytics and big data, starting with python and R. My background is in geographic data and database management in ORACLE and Microsoft Access. I`m thrilled to see that Python pandas are based on APL - the first programming language I used in anger back-in-the-day coding risks, pricing and profit-testing in life insurance. Away from the computer I run the office for an association of photo and imaging magazines and do mum-stuff. ©
