Pandas Library for EDA (6M)


Pandas is a Python library widely used for data analysis and manipulation. It provides
data structures like Series (1D) and DataFrame (2D) for organizing and analyzing data.
​
Features of Pandas for EDA:
​
Data Loading:
​
pd.read_csv('filename.csv'): Load CSV data into a DataFrame.
pd.read_excel('filename.xlsx'): Load Excel files.
Inspecting Data:
​
df.head(): View the first few rows.
df.tail(): View the last few rows.
df.info(): Display data types, non-null values, and memory usage.
df.describe(): Generate summary statistics for numeric columns.
​

# 2. Seaborn for Data Visualization (6M)


Seaborn is a Python data visualization library based on Matplotlib. It provides an
interface for drawing attractive and informative statistical graphics.
Barplot
sns.barplot()
Creates a bar chart to show mean (or other aggregation) of a numerical variable across
categories.
Scatterplot
sns.scatterplot()
Creates a scatterplot to show the relationship between two numerical variables.
Lineplot
sns.lineplot()
Visualizes trends over time or another continuous variable.
Barplot
sns.barplot()
Creates a bar chart to show mean (or other aggregation) of a numerical variable across
categories.

# Bar Chart & Line Plot with Examples (4M)


Bar Chart
A bar chart is a graphical representation that uses rectangular bars to compare
categories of data. The length or height of each bar is proportional to the value it
represents.
Useful for comparing quantities across different groups or categories.

Lineplot:-A line plot connects data points using a continuous line, often to visualize
trends over time or any other continuous variable.
Ideal for showing patterns, trends, or changes in data over intervals.

# EDA Demonstration (6M)


Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is the process of analyzing data sets to summarize their
main characteristics, often using statistical graphics and data visualization techniques.
It helps to:
1. Loading the Data
Purpose: Import data from various formats (e.g., CSV, Excel, SQL).
Functions:
pandas.read_csv(filepath): Reads CSV files.
pandas.read_excel(filepath): Reads Excel files.
pandas.DataFrame(): Creates a DataFrame.
Explanation: This step initializes the data analysis process by loading the dataset into
the environment.
2. Inspecting the Data
Purpose: Understand the structure and properties of the dataset.
Functions:
df.head(n): Displays the first n rows of the dataset (default is 5).
df.tail(n): Displays the last n rows of the dataset.
df.info(): Provides an overview of data types, non-null values, and memory usage.
df.describe(): Returns summary statistics for numerical columns.
Explanation: Ensures a preliminary understanding of data size, column types, and missing
values.
3. Data Cleaning
Purpose: Handle missing, duplicate, or incorrect data.
Functions:
df.dropna(): Removes rows with missing values.
df.fillna(value): Fills missing values with a specified value.
df.drop_duplicates(): Removes duplicate rows.
df['column'].astype(type): Converts data types of a column.
Explanation: Ensures the dataset is clean and ready for analysis by fixing
inconsistencies.
4. Univariate Analysis
Purpose: Analyze a single variable.
Functions:
sns.histplot(data, kde=True): Creates a histogram with a kernel density estimation curve.
sns.boxplot(data): Creates a box plot for outlier detection.
df['column'].value_counts(): Counts occurrences of unique values in a column.
Explanation: Provides insights into the distribution and patterns of a single variable.
5. Bivariate Analysis
Purpose: Explore relationships between two variables.
Functions:
sns.scatterplot(x='col1', y='col2', data=df): Plots a scatterplot for numerical
variables.
sns.boxplot(x='col1', y='col2', data=df): Displays a box plot for categorical vs
numerical relationships.
df.corr(): Calculates the correlation between numerical columns.
Explanation: Examines whether variables are correlated or how one variable impacts
another.
6. Multivariate Analysis
Purpose: Study relationships involving more than two variables.
Functions:
sns.heatmap(df.corr(), annot=True): Displays a correlation matrix as a heatmap.
sns.pairplot(data=df, hue='column'): Plots pairwise relationships for all variables.
Explanation: Helps to visualize interactions and dependencies among multiple variables.
7. Outlier Detection
Purpose: Identify extreme data points that might affect analysis.
Functions:
sns.boxplot(data): Highlights outliers in a single numerical variable.
sns.violinplot(data): Combines a box plot with a KDE plot.
zscore(data): Calculates the Z-scores for identifying outliers numerically.
Explanation: Identifies and addresses outliers to avoid skewed results.
8. Visualization of Results
Purpose: Summarize findings through visuals.
Functions:
matplotlib.pyplot.plot(): Creates a variety of plots (line plots, bar charts, etc.).
sns.barplot(x='col1', y='col2', data=df): Plots a bar chart for categorical vs numerical
data.
sns.lineplot(x='col1', y='col2', data=df): Creates a line plot for time-series or
continuous data.
Explanation: Enhances communication of insights through intuitive graphical
representations.
