Lifecycle of A Data Science Project

The document outlines the typical lifecycle of a data science project, which includes 10 stages: 1) Identifying the problem, 2) Preparing the data, 3) Analyzing the data, 4) Visualizing insights, 5) Presenting findings, and 6) additional stages of presenting findings to stakeholders, gaining buy-in, and taking action on insights. It notes that preparing the data is the most important but least favorite stage, while analyzing the data can be fun if the previous stages are done correctly. The stages cover identifying goals, cleaning data, analyzing to derive insights, visualizing patterns, and communicating results.
