3.DISCUSS ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF R DATA TYPES

In programming, data type is an important concept.

Variables can store data of different types, and different types can do different things.

In R, variables do not need to be declared with any particular type, and can even change type
after they have been set

Basic data types in R can be divided into the following types:

 numeric - (10.5, 55, 787)

 integer - (1L, 55L, 100L, where the letter "L" declares this as an integer)
 complex - (9 + 3i, where "i" is the imaginary part)
  character (a.k.a. string) - ("k", "R is exciting", "FALSE", "11.5")
 logical (a.k.a. boolean) - (TRUE or FALSE)

There are three number types in R:

 numeric- A numeric data type is the most common type in R, and contains any number with
or without a decimal, like: 10.5, 55, 787:
 integer- Integers are numeric data without decimals. This is used when you are certain that
you will never create a variable that should contain decimals. To create an integer variable,
you must use the le er L a er the integer value:
 complex- A complex number is wri en with an "i" as the imaginary part:

You can convert from one type to another with the following functions:

 as.numeric()
 as.integer()
 as.complex()

In R, you can use operators to perform common mathematical operations on numbers.

The + operator is used to add together two values. R also has many built-in math functions that
allows you to perform mathematical tasks on numbers.

For example, the min() and max() functions can be used to find the lowest or highest number in
a set. The sqrt() function returns the square root of a number:

4.write down different types of debugging tools R programming .

traceback()

If an error occurs, the easiest thing to do is to immediately call the traceback() function. This
function returns the function call stack just before the error occurred so that you can see what
level of function calls the error occurred. If you have many functions calling each other in
succession, the traceback() output can be useful for identifying where to go digging first.

Tracing Func ons

If you have easy access to the source code of a function (and can modify the code), then it’s
usually easiest to insert browser() calls directly into the code as you track down various bugs.
However, if you do not have easy access to a function’s code, or perhaps a function is inside a
package that would require rebuilding after each edit, it is sometimes easier to make use of the
trace() function to make temporary code modifications.

Using debug() and debugonce()

The debug() and debugonce() functions can be called on other functions to turn on the
“debugging state” of a function. Calling debug() on a function makes it such that when that
function is called, you immediately enter a browser and can step through the code one expression
at a time.

recover()

The recover() function is not often used but can be an essential tool when debugging complex
code. Typically, you do not call recover() directly, but rather set it as the function to invoke
anytime an error occurs in code. This can be done via the options() function.
 Browsing a Func on Environment

From the traceback output, it is often possible to determine in which function and on which line
of code an error occurs. If you are the author of the code in question, one easy thing to do is to
insert a call to the browser() function in the vicinity of the error (ideally, before the error
occurs). The browser() function takes no arguments and is just placed wherever you want in the
function. Once it is called, you will be in the browser environment, which is much like the
regular R workspace environment except that you are inside a function.

Final Thoughts on Debugging

The debugging tools in any programming language can be essential for tracking down problems
in code, especially when the code becomes complex and spans many lines. However, one should
not lean on them too heavily so that they become a regular part of the programming process. It is
easy to get into a situation where you “throw some code out there” and then let the debugger
catch it before something bad happens. If you find yourself coding up a function and then
immediately calling debug() on it, you are in this situation.

 Debugging in R is facilitated with the functions browser, debug, trace, recover, and
traceback.
 These debugging tools should not be used as a crutch when developing functions.

5.write down the different basics of data cleaning techniques.

1.Clear formatting

The first thing you do with your data is clear the formatting. The data you gather may be from
different sources, and each source would have different formatting. This can cause issues such as
spacing or incomplete sentences, etc. during data processing as these differences will affect how
the algorithms identify and analyze the data. To ensure that all the data has uniform formatting,
you must use clear all formatting in your .csv or google files.

2. Remove irrelevant data

It is important to remove all irrelevant data from your file, especially those that you know will
have zero effect on your customer feedback back analysis or any other business purpose.
Irrelevant data can be anything - from hyperlinks in the text, to tracking numbers, pin codes,
HTML tags, spaces between words, and such. Removing HTML tags from your data can also
save you precious credits when using a sentiment analysis or text analytics API because HTML
tags eat up a lot of space and at the same time are the easiest to get rid of.

3. Remove duplicates

Another important data cleaning method is removing any redundant data you can find.
Redundant data can be because of corrupted data in the source itself or due to mistakes made by
the person entering the data. Either way, all duplicate data needs to be removed so that the
algorithms do not process the same data twice or more times as this will skew the insights.

4. Filter missing values

A critical thing to check while prepping your data is checking for missing values. You can
rectify this issue in two ways, you can either delete the observations that have missing values or
you can fill in the missing values. This will depend ofcourse on whether you know what the
missing values are and how much you think reducing the data will affect the quality of your
insights.
 There are some of the opinion that large amounts of data are not necessarily important for
insights but if you are looking for market insights through consumer research, the size of the
sample data does matter.

5. Delete outliers

An outlier is a data item that appears to be random in comparison to other items in the data.
Outliers can affect the results of data analysis and therefore, are better eliminated in some cases.
However, even though most outliers reflect the variability of the measurement, they may not be a
mistake and are sometimes important for insights. That’s why it is important to first check what
kind of outlier it is before deleting it.

6. Convert data type

Converting data types is another data cleaning technique that needs to be used to prep data for
analysis. All text data needs to be categorized as such, as all numerical values must be
categorized with numbers. If this is not done, data mining algorithms will be unable to calculate
numerical values for statistical analysis or analyze text through natural language processing
(NLP) correctly.

7. Standardize capitalization

Another important thing to remember is that one must have standardized capitalization for all the
text. Although this may seem contradictory, especially in certain cases such as social media
sentiment analysis, where comments reflect personal style and may contain names of celebrities,
businesses, and such.

6.discuss about how obtaining data from the web?

Human copy-and-paste

The simplest form of web scraping is manually copying and pasting data from a web page into a
text file or spreadsheet. Sometimes even the best web-scraping technology cannot replace a
human's manual examination and copy-and-paste, and sometimes this may be the only workable
solution when the websites for scraping explicitly set up barriers to prevent machine automation.

Text pa ern matching

A simple yet powerful approach to extract information from web pages can be based on the
UNIX grep command or regular expression-matching facilities of programming languages (for
instance Perl or Python).

HTTP programming

Static and dynamic web pages can be retrieved by posting HTTP requests to the remote web
server using socket programming.

HTML parsing

Many websites have large collections of pages generated dynamically from an underlying
structured source like a database. Data of the same category are typically encoded into similar
pages by a common script or template. In data mining, a program that detects such templates in a
particular information source, extracts its content, and translates it into a relational form, is called
a wrapper. Wrapper generation algorithms assume that input pages of a wrapper induction
system conform to a common template and that they can be easily identified in terms of a URL
common scheme.[3] Moreover, some semi-structured data query languages, such as XQuery and
the HTQL, can be used to parse HTML pages and to retrieve and transform page content.
 DOM parsing
Further informa on: Document Object Model

By embedding a full-fledged web browser, such as the Internet Explorer or the Mozilla browser
control, programs can retrieve the dynamic content generated by client-side scripts. These
browser controls also parse web pages into a DOM tree, based on which programs can retrieve
parts of the pages. Languages such as Xpath can be used to parse the resulting DOM tree.

7.write down common multivariate statistical techniques used to visualize high dimensional
data

Pairwise plots

Pairwise plots are a great way to look at multi-dimensional data, and at the same time maintain
the simplicity of a two-dimensional plot. As shown in the figure below, it allows the analysts to
view all combinations of the variables, each in a two-dimensional plot. In this way, they can
visualize all the relations and interactions among the variables on one single screen.

Spider Plots

While there are various ways of visualizing multi-dimensional data, spider plots are one of the
easiest ways to decipher the meaning of data. From the figure below, we can see how easily we
can compare three mobile phones based on attributes such as their speed, screen, camera,
memory and apps.

Correlation Analysis

Often, data sets contain variables that are either related to each other or derived from each other.
It is important to understand these relations that exist in the data. In statistical terms, correlation
can be defined as the degree to which a pair of variables are linearly related. In some cases, it is
easy for the analyst to understand that the variables are related, but in most cases, it isn’t.

Cluster Analysis

In many business scenarios, the data belongs to different types of entities; and fitting all of them
into a single model might not be the best thing to do. For example, in a bank dataset, the
customers might belong to multiple income groups which leads to different spending behaviors.

MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance)

This technique is best suited for use when we have multiple categorical independent variables;
and two or more metric dependent variables. While the simple ANOVA (Analysis of Variance)
examines the difference between groups by using t-tests for two means and F-test otherwise,
MANOVA assesses the relationship between the set of dependent features across a set of groups.

8.write down essential exploratory techniques for summarizing data.

TYPES OF EXPLORATORY DATA ANALYSIS:

1. Univariate Non-graphical
2. Multivariate Non-graphical
3. Univariate graphical
4. Multivariate graphical

1. Univariate Non-graphical: this is the simplest form of data analysis as during this we
use just one variable to research the info. The standard goal of univariate non-graphical
 EDA is to know the underlying sample distribution/ data and make observations about
the population. Outlier detection is additionally part of the analysis.
Spread: Spread is an indicator of what propor on distant from the middle we are to seek out
the find the info values. the quality devia on and variance are two useful measures of spread.
The variance is that the mean of the square of the individual devia ons and therefore the
variance is the root of the variance
2. Mul variate Non-graphical: Mul variate non-graphical EDA technique is usually wont to show
the connec on between two or more variables within the sort of either cross-tabula on or
sta s cs.

For each categorical variable and one quan ta ve variable, we create sta s cs for quan ta ve
variables separately for every level of the specific variable then compare the sta s cs across the
amount of categorical variable.

3. Univariate graphical: Non-graphical methods are quan ta ve and objec ve, they are not able to
give the complete picture of the data; therefore, graphical methods are used more as they
involve a degree of subjec ve analysis, also are required

Histograms are one of the simplest ways to quickly learn a lot about your data, including central
tendency, spread, modality, shape and outliers.

4. Mul variate graphical: Mul variate graphical data uses graphics to display rela onships between two
or more sets of knowledge. The sole one used commonly may be a grouped barplot with each group
represen ng one level of 1 of the variables and every bar within a gaggle represen ng the amount of the
opposite variable

 Run chart: It’s a line graph of data plotted over time.

 Heat map: It’s a graphical representation of data where values are depicted by color.
 Multivariate chart: It’s a graphical representation of the relationships between factors and
response.

 Bubble chart: It’s a data visualization that displays multiple circles (bubbles) in two-
dimensional plot.

statements or a set of statements multiple times. For R loop is commonly used to iterate over items
of a sequence. It is an entry-controlled loop, in this loop, the test condition is tested first, then the
body of the loop is executed, the loop body would not be executed if the test condition is false.

test condition is false.

Repeat Loop in R

It is a simple loop that will run the same statement or a group of statements repeatedly until the
stop condition has been encountered. Repeat loop does not have any condition to terminate the
loop, a programmer must specifically place a condition within the loop’s body and use the
declaration of a break statement to terminate this loop. If no condition is present in the body of
the repeat loop then it will iterate infinitely.

Jump Statements in Loop

We use a jump statement in loops to terminate the loop at a particular iteration or to skip a particular
iteration in the loop. The two most commonly used jump statements in loops are:

 Break Statement: The break keyword is a jump statement that is used to terminate the loop at a
par cular itera on.

4.explain different control structure used in R programming.

Control statements are expressions used to control the execu on and flow of the program based on the
condi ons provided in the statements. These structures are used to make a decision a er assessing the variable.

if condi on

This control structure checks the expression provided in parenthesis is true or not. If true, the
execution of the statements in braces {} continues.

if-else condi on

It is similar to if condition but when the test expression in if condition fails, then statements in
else condition are executed.

for loop

It is a type of loop or sequence of statements executed repeatedly until exit condition is reached.

Nested loops

Nested loops are similar to simple loops. Nested means loops inside loop. Moreover, nested
loops are used to manipulate the matrix.

while loop

while loop is another kind of loop iterated until a condition is satisfied. The testing expression is
checked first before executing the body of loop.

repeat loop and break statement

repeat is a loop which can be iterated many number of times but there is no exit condition to
come out from the loop. So, break statement is used to exit from the loop. break statement can
be used in any type of loop to exit from the loop.
 return statement

return statement is used to return the result of an executed function and returns control to the
calling function.

next statement

next statement is used to skip the current iteration without executing the further statements and
continues the next iteration cycle without terminating the loop.

6. What is data cleaning. Differentiate between data cleaning and data transformation. How to
clean data.
Data cleaning is the process of identifying and correcting errors, inconsistencies, and inaccuracies in
a dataset to ensure it is accurate, complete, and usable for analysis. This involves tasks like
removing duplicates, handling missing values, correcting typos, and standardizing formats.

Data transformation, on the other hand, involves altering the original data to make it suitable for
specific analysis or modeling tasks. This can include converting data types, scaling values, creating
new variables, or aggregating data.

To clean data, follow these steps:

1. *Identify issues*: Review the dataset to identify errors, missing values, inconsistencies, and
outliers.
2. *Handle missing data*: Decide how to handle missing values, whether to remove them, impute
them with mean/median values, or use more sophisticated techniques.
3. *Remove duplicates*: Identify and remove duplicate records from the dataset.
4. *Standardize formats*: Standardize data formats, such as dates, currencies, and units of
measurement.
5. *Correct errors*: Correct any errors in the data, such as typos or inaccuracies.
6. *Normalize data*: Normalize data by scaling numerical variables to a common scale, if needed.

By utilizing these methods and tools, you can effectively clean and prepare your dataset for analysis or
modeling, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of your results.

7.what is exploratory data analysis and explain its tools.

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is an approach to analyzing data sets to summarize their main
characteristics, often using visual methods. The primary goal of EDA is to understand the data's
structure, uncover patterns, detect anomalies, and generate hypotheses for further investigation. Here's
an explanation of some tools commonly used in EDA:

1. *Summary Statistics*: Summary statistics provide a concise overview of the dataset's main
characteristics, such as mean, median, mode, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and quartiles.
Tools like Python's Pandas library or R's summary function can compute summary statistics.

2. *Histograms*: Histograms are graphical representations of the distribution of numerical data. They
help visualize the frequency or density of values within different intervals or bins. Python libraries like
Matplotlib or Seaborn, and R's ggplot2, can create histograms.

3. *Boxplots*: Boxplots, also known as box-and-whisker plots, provide a visual summary of the
distribution of numerical data and help identify outliers. They display the median, quartiles, and the
range of the data. Matplotlib, Seaborn, and ggplot2 are commonly used to create boxplots.

4. *Scatter plots*: Scatter plots are useful for visualizing the relationship between two numerical
variables. They can reveal patterns, trends, correlations, and outliers in the data. Matplotlib, Seaborn,
and ggplot2 are popular tools for creating scatter plots.

5. *Correlation Analysis*: Correlation analysis measures the strength and direction of the linear
relationship between two numerical variables. It helps identify associations between variables. Python
libraries like Pandas, NumPy, and Seaborn offer functions to compute correlation coefficients and create
correlation matrices.
6. *Heatmaps*: Heatmaps visualize the correlation matrix using colors to represent the strength of
correlation between pairs of variables. They provide a more intuitive way to identify relationships
between multiple variables. Seaborn and Matplotlib can create heatmaps in Python.

7. *Pair plots*: Pair plots, also known as scatterplot matrices, display scatter plots for each pair of
numerical variables and histograms for each variable along the diagonal. They help visualize
relationships between multiple variables simultaneously. Seaborn's pairplot function is commonly used
to create pair plots in Python.

8. *Data Profiling Tools*: Data profiling tools automatically generate descriptive statistics and
visualizations to summarize the main characteristics of a dataset. Examples include pandas-profiling in
Python and DataExplorer in R.

By using these tools effectively, analysts can gain insights into their data, identify patterns, relationships,
and potential issues, and make informed decisions for further analysis or modeling.

8.why is exploratory data analysis important in data science? Explain types of exploratory data
analysis?

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is crucial in data science for several reasons:

*Understanding the Data*: EDA helps analysts gain a deep understanding of the dataset they are
working with, including its structure, distribution, and patterns. This understanding is essential for
making informed decisions about data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model selection.

*Identifying Patterns and Trends*: EDA enables analysts to uncover patterns, trends, and relationships
within the data that may not be immediately apparent. These insights can guide further analysis and
help in generating hypotheses for predictive modeling or hypothesis testing.

. *Detecting Anomalies and Outliers*: EDA helps identify anomalies and outliers in the data, which may
represent errors, unusual events, or valuable insights. Detecting and understanding these anomalies is
crucial for data cleaning and ensuring the quality and integrity of the data.

*Feature Selection and Engineering*: EDA provides insights into which features (variables) are most
relevant and informative for the analysis or modeling task at hand. It helps analysts identify redundant
or irrelevant features and explore potential transformations or combinations of features to improve
model performance.

*Model Interpretation*: EDA helps in interpreting the results of predictive models by providing context
and explaining the relationships between input variables and the target variable. It helps analysts
understand why a model makes certain predictions and assess its reliability and generalizability.

Types of Exploratory Data Analysis:

1. *Univariate Analysis*: Univariate analysis examines the distribution and summary statistics of
individual variables in isolation. It includes techniques like histograms, boxplots, and summary statistics
to understand the characteristics of each variable.

2. *Bivariate Analysis*: Bivariate analysis explores the relationship between pairs of variables. It includes
techniques like scatter plots, correlation analysis, and contingency tables to uncover associations,
correlations, and dependencies between variables.

3. *Multivariate Analysis*: Multivariate analysis examines relationships between multiple variables

simultaneously. It includes techniques like principal component analysis (PCA), factor analysis, and
cluster analysis to identify patterns and structures within high-dimensional datasets.
4. *Temporal Analysis*: Temporal analysis focuses on understanding patterns and trends over time. It
includes techniques like time series analysis, seasonal decomposition, and autocorrelation analysis to
analyze time-stamped data and identify temporal patterns and dependencies.

5. *Spatial Analysis*: Spatial analysis explores geographic patterns and relationships within spatially
referenced data. It includes techniques like spatial autocorrelation, spatial interpolation, and geospatial
visualization to analyze and interpret spatial data.

By conducting various types of EDA, data scientists can gain comprehensive insights into their data,
which is essential for building accurate, reliable, and interpretable models and making data-driven
decisions.
