2. Control Structures

- Conditional statements (if, elif, else)

- Loops (for, while)

- List comprehensions

3. Functions and Modules

- Defining functions

- Function arguments and return values

- Importing modules

- Built-in functions vs. user-defined functions

4. Data Structures

- Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries

- Manipulating data structures (add, remove, update elements)

Step 2: Advanced Python


1. File Handling

- Reading from and writing to files

- Working with different file formats (txt, csv, json)

2. Error Handling

- Try, except blocks

- Handling exceptions and errors gracefully

3. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

- Classes and objects

- Inheritance and polymorphism

- Encapsulation

Step 3: Libraries for Data Analysis

1. NumPy

- Understanding arrays and array operations

- Indexing, slicing, and iterating

- Mathematical functions and statistical operations

2. Pandas

- Series and DataFrames

- Reading and writing data (csv, excel, sql, json)

- Data cleaning and preparation

- Merging, joining, and concatenating data

- Grouping and aggregating data


3. Matplotlib and Seaborn

- Data visualization with Matplotlib

- Plotting different types of graphs (line, bar, scatter, histogram)

- Customizing plots

- Advanced visualizations with Seaborn

Step 4: Data Manipulation and Analysis

1. Data Wrangling

- Handling missing values

- Data transformation

- Feature engineering

2. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)

- Data visualization techniques

- Identifying patterns and outliers

3. Statistical Analysis

- Hypothesis testing

- Correlation and regression analysis

- Probability distributions

Step 5: Advanced Topics

1. Time Series Analysis

- Working with datetime objects

- Time series decomposition


- Forecasting models

2. Machine Learning Basics

- Introduction to machine learning

- Supervised vs. unsupervised learning

- Using Scikit-Learn for machine learning

- Building and evaluating models

3. Big Data and Cloud Computing

- Introduction to big data frameworks (e.g., Hadoop, Spark)

- Using cloud services for data analysis (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud)

Step 6: Practical Projects

1. Hands-on Projects

- Analyzing datasets from Kaggle

- Building interactive dashboards with Plotly or Dash

- Developing end-to-end data analysis projects

2. Collaborative Projects

- Participating in data science competitions
