Exploratory Data Analysis

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is a statistical approach that involves visualizing and understanding the patterns, trends, and relationships within data prior to formal modeling or hypothesis testing. Coursera's EDA catalogue helps you develop a comprehensive understanding of how to summarize, visualize, and interpret various types of data. You'll learn how to use graphical and quantitative methods to gain insights into data, uncover underlying structure, extract important variables, identify outliers and anomalies, and test underlying assumptions. You'll refine your analytical thinking skills and learn to effectively communicate results through informative visualizations, preparing you for roles in data science, statistics, and analytics.
