Description:

Typically it takes 60 to 80% of the time to collect required data, cleanse it and analyse in any data science project. It is very essential for one to be familiar with various tools/libraries available in python for doing data analysis and understanding the data. This hands on workshop's objective is to provide overview of the libraries and how to use them for various activities performed during the data analysis

Following will be covered as part of this session

• How does data analysis fit in the life cycle of data science project
• Dealing with numpy arrays
• Reading data using various formats, dealing with missing values
• Using pandas plot features to visualize and understand the data
• Analyzing one of the open source data set

By the end of the session, audience will have very good understanding of how to apply numpy, pandas to analyze, understand and prepare data set required for starting machine learning

Prerequisites:

Hands on exposure with basic python programming language

Software requirements:

Please install Anaconda ( https://www.anaconda.com/download/) with Python 3.6

Download the git hub repo - https://github.com/sdonapar/data_analysis_python, we would be using jupyter notebooks for this workshop
