Sports Analytics Management - Exam Answers

Q.1 Attempt Any 4 out of 6 Questions (5 Marks Each)


a) Purpose of the following functions:

 • del() – Deletes objects or elements from lists, dictionaries, or entire variables.


 • pop() – Removes and returns an element from a list or dictionary.
 • type() – Returns the data type of the variable.
 • std() – Calculates the standard deviation in a DataFrame or Series.
 • head() – Returns the first 5 rows of a DataFrame by default.

b) Code for given steps:

import pandas as pd

# Step (i) - Create dataset


df = pd.DataFrame({
'Player': ['Player1', 'Player2', 'Player3'],
'Playing position': ['Batsman', 'Bowler', 'All-rounder'],
'Score': [45, 30, 60]
})

# Step (ii) - Add 3 more rows


new_data = pd.DataFrame({
'Player': ['Player4', 'Player5', 'Player6'],
'Playing position': ['Batsman', 'Bowler', 'Wicketkeeper'],
'Score': [70, 55, 35]
})
df = pd.concat([df, new_data], ignore_index=True)

# Step (iii) - Display in ascending order of Score


print(df.sort_values(by='Score'))

c) Interpretation of Graph:

• There is a negative correlation between miles per gallon and displacement.

• As fuel efficiency increases, engine displacement decreases.

• Cars with high displacement tend to have lower miles per gallon.
d) Dataset Analysis:

• Number of rows: 1355

• Number of columns: 8

• Missing values: 0

• Data types:

 - Player: object
 - Overs: float64
 - Others: int64

Code: print(df.info())

e) Difference between Bar Plot and Histogram:

 • Bar Plot: For categorical data with gaps between bars.


 • Histogram: For numerical data, showing distribution with no gaps.

f) Outliers and Detection Methods:

 • Outliers are values that deviate significantly from other data points.
 • Detection Methods:
 - IQR method
 - Z-score method
 - Box plot

Q.2 Attempt Any 5 out of 7 Questions (8 Marks Each)


a) 4 Variables Positively Correlated with Player Performance:

 • Number of Innings Played


 • Total Runs Scored
 • Number of Wickets Taken
 • Batting Average or Strike Rate

b) 4 Functions of Sets with Example:

 • union(): Combines two sets – A.union(B)


 • intersection(): Common elements – A.intersection(B)
 • difference(): Elements in A not in B – A.difference(B)
 • issubset(): Checks if A is subset of B – A.issubset(B)

c) Pie Plot Analysis on Captaincy Duration:

 • Mohammad Azharuddin has the longest captaincy duration.


 • Sourav Ganguly and MS Dhoni follow.
 • Other players like Virat Kohli and Rahul Dravid had shorter stints.

d) Code Explanation:

 • df.groupby("team")['score'].mean() – Returns mean score per team.


 • df[df["score"] > 100] – Filters rows with score greater than 100.
 • df.team.value_counts() – Returns frequency of each team.

e) Data Validity in Data Cleaning:

 • Ensures data is accurate and falls within acceptable ranges.


 • Involves type checks, range checks, duplicates removal, and consistency.

f) Types of Skewness:

 • Positive Skew: Long tail on right, e.g., income distribution.


 • Negative Skew: Long tail on left, e.g., age at retirement.

g) Formula 1 Correlation Matrix Interpretation:

 • Driver and constructor are highly correlated (0.83).


 • Constructor has moderate correlation with position (0.51).
 • Car number has low correlation with performance.
 • Suggests team and driver impact performance more than car number.
