Total Budget Preferably not over $200 but I'm not sure what I need so if it's over it's fine.

Are you open to refurbish Yes

How would you prioritize form factor build, quality, and battery life. I'm prioritizing usability for the field I'm going to then battery life

How important is weight and thinness Not important at all

Do you have a preferred screen size No

What are your desired programs/games it needs to run I need it to be able to run code like R and python along with dealing with large data sets on big query

Finishing Thoughts I'm taking classes for data analysis right now and I need a laptop that is going to support this career path. I'm not entirely sure what all I need. If you have any recommendations or know of what types of specs I'm suppose to look for it'd be appreciated.
