System prompts, few-shot examples, chain-of-thought, and prompt chaining are not interchangeable - knowing which technique matches which problem type is what separates production-ready prompts from ones that just work sometimes.
Pull together everything from the Data Science cluster in this capstone project. Build a production-ready data pipeline that ingests, validates, cleans, transforms, and exports data from multiple sources.
You've probably been there: a feature ships, users love it, and then—boom—your dashboard lights up red. Response times are creeping into the danger zone. Database queries are piling up.
Follow a complete, real-world EDA workflow from loading data to documenting findings. Learn the five-phase approach that professional data scientists use to understand any dataset before building models.
Claude 4.x interprets instructions with ruthless precision - learn the 4-block pattern, system prompt contracts, few-shot examples, extended thinking, and XML output formatting to get reliable results.
