Overview:

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is used to perform initial analysis of your data in order to 'get a feel' for the variables involved and whether your data entails certain patterns.

At the end of this workshop, you will be able to
     > use different visualization tools to analyze distributions and correlations
     > know and apply different ways to treat missing data
     > apply classification and standardization methods

 

Prerequisites:
