 Preface

Today, Data Science has become an indispensable part of every

organization, for which employers are willing to pay top dollars to
hire skilled professionals. Due to the rapidly changing needs of
industry, data continues to grow and evolve, thereby increasing the
demand for data scientists. However, the questions that
continuously haunt every company – are there enough highly-
skilled individuals who can analyze how much data will be
available, where it will come from, and what the advancement are
in analytical techniques to serve them more significant insights? If
you have picked up this book, you must have already come
across these topics through talks or blogs from several experts
and leaders in the industry.

To become an expert in any field, everyone must start from a

point to learn. This book is designed with keeping such
perspective in mind, to serve as your starting point in the field of
data science. When I started my career in this field, I had little
luck finding a compact guide that I could use to learn concepts
of data science, practice examples, and revise them when faced
with similar problems at hand. I soon realized Data Science is a
very vast domain, and having all the knowledge in a small version
of a book is highly impossible. Therefore, I decided I accumulate
my experience in the form of this book, where you’ll gain
essential knowledge and skill set required to become a data
scientist, without wasting your valuable time finding material
scattered across the internet.
I planned the chapters of this book in a chained form. In the first
chapter, you will be made familiar with the data and the new data
science skills set. The second chapter is all about setting up tools
for the trade with the help of which you can practice the
examples discussed in the book. In chapters three to six, you will
learn all types of data structures in Python, which you will use in
your day-to-day data science projects. In 7th chapter you will lean
how to interact with different databases with Python. The eighth-
chapter of this book will teach you the most used statistical
concepts in data analysis. By the ninth chapter, you will be all set
to start your journey of becoming a data scientist by learning how
to read, load, and understand different types of data in Jupyter
notebook for analysis. The tenth and eleventh chapters will guide
you through different data cleaning and visualizing techniques.

From the twelfth chapter onwards, you will have to combine

knowledge acquired from previous chapters to do data pre-
processing of real-world use-cases. In chapters thirteen and
fourteen, you will learn supervised and unsupervised machine
learning problems and how to solve them. Chapters fifteen and
sixteen will cover time series data and will teach you how to
handle them. After covering the key concepts, I have included four
different case studies, where you will apply all the knowledge
acquired and practice solving real-world problems. The last three
chapters of this book will make you industry-ready data scientists.
Using best practices while structuring your project and use of
GitHub repository along with your Data Science concepts will not
make you feel naive, while working with other software engineering
team.
The book you are holding is my humble effort to not only cover
fundamentals of Data Science using Python, but also save your
time by focusing on minimum theory + more practical examples.
These practical examples include real-world datasets and real
problems, which will make you confident in tackling similar or
related data problems. I hope you find this book valuable, and
that it enables you to extend your data science knowledge as a
practitioner in a short time.

Data Science Fundamentals

“Learning from data is virtually universally useful. Master it and

you will be welcomed anywhere.”

– John Elder, founder of the Elder Research

Elder Research is America’s largest and most experienced analytics

consultancy. With his vision about data, John started his company
in 1995, yet the importance of finding information from the data
is a niche and the most demanding skill of the 21st century.
Today data science is everywhere.

The explosive growth of the digital world requires professionals

with not just strong skills, but also adaptability and a passion for
staying on the forefront of technology. A recent study shows that
demand for data scientists and analysts is projected to grow by
28 percent by 2021. This is on top of the current market need.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, growth for data
science jobs skills will grow about 28% through 2026. Unless
something changes, these skill-gaps will continue to widen. In this
first chapter, you will learn how to be familiar with data, your role
as an aspiring data scientist, and the importance of Python
programming language in data science.

Why Python for data science?

Objective

After studying this chapter, you should be able to understand the

data types, the amount of the data generated daily, and the need
for data scientists with currently available real-world use cases.
What is data?

The best way to describe data is to understand the types of data.

Data is divided into the following three categories.
Structured data

A well-organized data in the form of tables that can be easily be

operated is known as structured data. Searching and accessing
information from such type of data is very easy. For example, data
stored in the relational database, i.e., SQL in the form of tables
having multiple rows and columns. The spreadsheet is another
good example of structured data. Structured data represent only
5% to 10% of all data present in the world. The following figure
1.1 is an example of SQL data, where an SQL table is holding the
merchant related data:

Figure 1.1: Sample SQL Data

Unstructured data

Unstructured data requires advanced tools and software’s to access

information. For example, images and graphics, PDF files, word
document, audio, video, emails, PowerPoint presentations,
webpages and web contents, wikis, streaming data, location
coordinates, etc., fall under the unstructured data category.
Unstructured data represent around 80% of the data. The
following figure 1.2 shows various unstructured data types:

Figure 1.2: Unstructured data types

Semi-structured data

Semi-structured data is structured data that is unorganized. Web

data such as JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) files, BibTex files,
CSV files, tab-delimited text files, XML, and other markup
languages are examples of semi-structured data found on the web.
Semi-structured data represent only 5% to 10% of all data present
in the world. The following figure 1.3 shows an example of JSON
data:

Figure 1.3: JSON data

What is data science?

It’s become a universal truth that modern businesses are awash

with data. Last year, McKinsey estimated that Big Data initiatives
in the US healthcare system could account for $300 billion to $450
billion in reduced healthcare spending or 12-17 percent of the $2.6
trillion baselines in US healthcare costs. On the other hand though,
bad or unstructured data is estimated to be costing the US
roughly $3.1 trillion a year.

Data-driven decision making is increasing in popularity. Accessing

and finding information from the unstructured data is complex
and cannot be done easily with some BI tools; here data science
comes into the picture.

Data science is a field that extracts the knowledge and insights

from the raw data. To do so, it uses mathematics, statistics,
computer science, and programming language knowledge. A
person who has all these skills is known as a data scientist. A
data scientist is all about being curious, self-driven, and
passionate about finding answers. The following figure 1.4 shows
the skills that a modern data scientist should have:
Figure 1.4: Skills of a modern data scientist
What does a data scientist do?

Most data scientists in the industry have advanced training in

statistics, math, and computer science. Their experience is a vast
horizon that also extends to data visualization, data mining, and
information management. The primary job of a data scientist is to
ask the right question. It’s about surfacing hidden insight that can
help enable companies to make smarter business decisions.

The job of a data scientist is not bound to a particular domain.

Apart from scientific research, they are working in various domains
including shipping, healthcare, e-commerce, aviation, finance,
education, etc. They start their work by understanding the
business problem and then they proceed with data collection,
reading the data, transforming the data in the required format,
visualizing, modeling, and evaluating the model and then
deployment. You can imagine their work cycle as mentioned in the
following figure

Figure 1.5: Work cycle of a data scientist

Eighty percent of a data scientist’s time is spent in simply finding,
cleansing, and organizing data, leaving only 20 percent to perform
analysis. These processes can be time-consuming and tedious. But
it’s crucial to get them right since a model is only as good as
the data that is used to build it. And because models generally
improve as they are exposed to increasing amounts of data, it’s in
the data scientists’ interests to include as much data as they can
in their analysis.

In the later chapters of this book, you will learn all the above-
required skills to be a data scientist.
Real-world use cases of data science

Information is the oil of the 21st century, and analytics is the

combustion engine. Whether you are uploading a picture on
Facebook, posting a tweet, emailing anybody, or shopping in an e-
commerce site, the role of data science is everywhere. In the
modern workplace, data science is applied to many problems to
predict and calculate outcomes that would have taken several
times more human hours to process. Following are some list of
real-world examples where data scientists are playing a key role:

Google’s AI research arm is taking the help of data scientists to

build the best performing algorithm for automatically detecting
objects.

Amazon has built a product recommendation system to

personalize their product.

Santander Group of Bank has built a model with the help of data
scientists to identify the value of transactions for each potential
customer.

Airbus in the maritime industry is taking the help of data

scientists to build a model that detects all ships in satellite
images as quickly as possible to increase knowledge, anticipate
threats, trigger alerts, and improve efficiency at sea.
YouTube is using an automated video classification model in
limited memory.

Data scientists at the Chinese internet giant Baidu released details

of a new deep learning algorithm that they claim can help
pathologists identify tumors more accurately.

The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA®) is using an

algorithm to detect a visual signal for pneumonia in medical
images which automatically locate lung opacities on chest
radiographs.

The Inter-American Development Bank is using an algorithm that

considers a family’s observable household attributes like the
material of their walls and ceiling, or the assets found in the
home to classify them and predict their level of need.

Netflix data uses data science skills on the movie viewing patterns
to understand what drives user interest and uses that to make
decisions on which Netflix original series to produce.
Why Python for data science?

Python is very beginner friendly. The syntax (words and structure)

is extremely simple to read and follow, most of which can be
understood even if you do not know any programming. Python is
a multi-paradigm programming language – a sort of Swiss Army
knife for the coding world. It supports object-oriented
programming, structured programming, and functional
programming patterns, among others. There’s a joke in the Python
community that Python is generally the second-best language for
everything.

Python is a free, open-source software, and consequently, anyone

can write a library package to extend its functionality. Data science
has been an early beneficiary of these extensions, particularly
Pandas, the big daddy of them all.

Python’s inherent readability and simplicity makes it relatively easy

to pick up, and the number of dedicated analytical libraries
available today means that data scientists in almost every sector
will find packages already tailored to their needs, freely available
for download.

The following survey was done by KDnuggets – a leading site on

business analytics, Big Data, data mining, data science, and
machine learning – clearly shows that Python is a preferable
choice for data science/machine learning:
Figure 1.6: Survey by KDnuggets
Conclusion

Most of the people think that it is very difficult to become a data

scientist. But, let me be clear, it is not tough!

If you love making discoveries about the world, and if you are
fascinated by machine learning, then you can break into the data
science industry no matter what your situation is. This book will
push you to learn, improve, and master the data science skill on
your own. There is only one thing you need to keep on, that is,
LEARN-APPLY-REPEAT. In the next chapter, we will set up our
machine, and be ready for our data science journey.
 CHAPTER 2

Installing Software and System Setup

In the last chapter, we covered the data science fundamentals,

and now we are ready to move ahead and prepare our system for
data science. In this chapter, we will learn about the most popular
Python data science platform – Anaconda. With this platform, you
don't need to install Python explicitly – just one installation in
your system (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and you are ready to
use the industry-standard platform for developing, testing, and
training.
