Exploratory Data Analysis

using Python

Welcome to our presentation on exploratory data analysis using Python. In this

guide, we will provide an overview of the workflow, working principles, and the
technologies used in this process. Join us as we delve into the fascinating world
of data analysis!
Overview
What is Exploratory Data Analysis?

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is a crucial step in understanding and summarizing data
before diving into detailed analysis.

Why is EDA Important?

EDA helps in detecting patterns, outliers, and relationships in the data, which can guide further
analysis and decision-making.

Key Objectives

The main objectives of EDA are to gain insights, identify data quality issues, and determine the
most appropriate analytical techniques.

3 Visualizations

Informative visualizations, including histograms, scatter plots, and box plots, are created to
explore relationships and distributions in EDA.
