make
informed decisions.

5: - Personalized Recommendations: Recommender systems analyze


purchase history
and suggest products tailored to
individual
preferences.

- Optimized Inventory Management: Demand forecasting prevents stock


outs and
overstocking, ensuring better product
availability.

6: - Define the problem: Understand sales fluctuations and define key


metrics.

- Collect relevant data: Gather sales data, customer demographics,


seasonality, and
economic factors.

trends and
anomalies.
- Build predictive models: Apply statistical and machine learning
techniques to identify
patterns.
- Interpret results and take action: Use findings to adjust pricing,
marketing, or
inventory strategies.

compiled C
code.

10: - Prevents biased analysis: Duplicate records can skew statistical results.

- Reduces redundancy: Eliminates unnecessary data storage and


processing
overhead.
- Improves model accuracy: Machine learning models perform better with
clean,
unique data.

11: - Inconsistent data formats

- Access restrictions
- Data reliability issues
- Legal and ethical concerns

12: - Identify missing data by using Pandas to check for null values.
- Handle missing values by filling with mean/median for numerical data, use
mode for
categorical data and drop rows with excessive missing values if necessary.

- Detect incorrect entries by identifying outliers and validate data formats


- Standardize data by ensure uniform formatting

13: - Scatter plots: Detect outliers, such as unusually large transactions.

- Histograms: Reveal anomalies in spending frequency.

15: - Visualize transaction distributions: Use histograms to identify extreme


values.

- Analyze time-based patterns: Check if high-value transactions occur at


odd hours.
- Use box plots: Detect transactions that deviate from the normal range.
- Cluster transactions: Identify unusual behavior through clustering
techniques

16: - Handling missing values

- Removing duplicates to prevent biased analysis.

17: - Prevents biased insights that could distort analysis.
