Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) involves analyzing and visualizing data to gain insights and identify relationships between variables. Key steps include calculating summary statistics, identifying missing values, visualizing data using plots and graphs, transforming variables if needed, and examining correlations between variables.

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is a crucial step in any
data analysis project. It involves analyzing and visualizing data to gain insights, understand patterns, and identify potential relationships between variables.
Tools used: Python, R, Excel, Apache Spark
Summary Statistics: Calculate basic statistics such as mean, median, mode, standard deviation, range, etc., to summarize the dataset's main characteristics. • Information about the data • Checking Data types only
• Summary Statistics of numerical data
• Summary Statistics of categorical data
Missing Values: Identify missing values in the dataset and decide on appropriate strategies for handling them, such as imputation or deletion. Data Visualization: Use various graphs and plots to visualize the data, including histograms, box plots, scatter plots, bar plots, etc. Visualization helps in understanding the distribution of variables, identifying outliers, and spotting trends or patterns. Data Transformation: Perform transformations on variables if needed, such as log transformations, normalization, or standardization, to make the data more suitable for analysis or modeling. Correlation Analysis: Examine the relationships between variables using correlation coefficients or correlation matrices. This helps in understanding the strength and direction of relationships between variables.
