DATA SCIENCE

QUESTION BANK
UNIT-2
PART-1

1. Discuss the problems and its solutions for handling large volume of Data.

2. Define Data Wrangling and clearly explain its phases/ steps:


a. Clean
b. Transform
c. Merge
d. Shape

3. How the data in pandas are combined together? Discuss all the ways.
[Hint: Combining and Merging Datasets Merging on Index Concatenate Combining
with overlap]

4. Explain the following:


a. How can you merge two DataFrames on multiple indexes (hierarchical index
merging)?
[Hint: pd.merge(left1, right1, left_on='key', right_index=True, how='outer')]
b. How the dataframe are combined together having the same or similar indexes
but non-overlapping columns?
[Hint: left2.join(right2, how='outer') ]
c. Discuss various concatenate functions arguments.
i. Create two data frames: One dataframe contains index values [‘a’, ‘b’]
while another dataframe contains index values [‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’].
ii. Perform concatenate operations with ‘inner’ join operation along axis
=1.
[Hint: pd.concat([s1, s4], axis=1, join='inner') ]
d. Discuss different join types and apply on two dataframe.

5. Discuss the challenges encountered when merging and combining datasets, such as
handling missing values, duplicate entries, and performance issues. How can these
challenges be mitigated?
6. Load a dataset and identify duplicate records.
a) Remove them while keeping the first occurrence.
b) Replace missing values in a dataset using:
a. Mean for numerical columns
b. Mode for categorical columns
c) Group data by multiple columns and calculate the mean for each group.
d) Compute the percentage contribution of each category in a column.
e) Count unique values in each column of a dataset.
