Data science is to use new and old data combined with mathematics, statistics, database and other tools to discover hidden problems or insights to help us solve problems or make correct predictions

I learned a lot but that might not be a good indicator as I didn't know much about Data Science in the first place. It just fueled my need to know more about the subject so on my side, it's a winner.
