Data analysis has become a necessary skill in a variety of domains where knowing how to work with data and extract insights can generate significant value. Geared for data team members with incoming Python scripting experience, Hands-On Data Analysis with Pandas will show you how to analyze your data, get started with machine learning, and work effectively with Python libraries often used for data science, such as pandas, NumPy, matplotlib, seaborn, and scikit-learn.
Using real-world datasets, you will learn how to use the powerful pandas library to perform data wrangling to reshape, clean, and aggregate your data. Then, you will be able to conduct exploratory data analysis by calculating summary statistics and visualizing the data to find patterns. In the concluding lessons, you will explore some applications of anomaly detection, regression, clustering, and classification using scikit-learn to make predictions based on past data. Students will leave the course armed with the skills required to use pandas to ensure the veracity of their data, visualize it for effective decision-making, and reliably reproduce analyses across multiple datasets.
