Data Analyst starter kit for 2025 🚀

Most popular Python libraries for data visualization:

Matplotlib – The most fundamental library for static charts. Best for basic visualizations like line, bar, and scatter plots. Highly customizable but requires more coding.

Seaborn – Built on Matplotlib, it simplifies statistical data visualization with beautiful defaults. Ideal for correlation heatmaps, categorical plots, and distribution analysis.

Plotly – Best for interactive visualizations with zooming, hovering, and real-time updates. Great for dashboards, web applications, and 3D plotting.

Bokeh – Designed for interactive and web-based visualizations. Excellent for handling large datasets, streaming data, and integrating with Flask/Django.

Altair – A declarative library that makes complex statistical plots easy with minimal code. Best for quick and clean data exploration.

For static charts, start with Matplotlib or Seaborn. If you need interactivity, use Plotly or Bokeh. For quick EDA, Altair is a great choice.

Essential Data Analysis Techniques Every Analyst Should Know

1. Descriptive Statistics: Understanding measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of spread (variance, standard deviation) to summarize data.

2. Data Cleaning: Techniques to handle missing values, outliers, and inconsistencies in data, ensuring that the data is accurate and reliable for analysis.

3. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): Using visualization tools like histograms, scatter plots, and box plots to uncover patterns, trends, and relationships in the data.

4. Hypothesis Testing: The process of making inferences about a population based on sample data, including understanding p-values, confidence intervals, and statistical significance.

5. Correlation and Regression Analysis: Techniques to measure the strength of relationships between variables and predict future outcomes based on existing data.

6. Time Series Analysis: Analyzing data collected over time to identify trends, seasonality, and cyclical patterns for forecasting purposes.

7. Clustering: Grouping similar data points together based on characteristics, useful in customer segmentation and market analysis.

8. Dimensionality Reduction: Techniques like PCA (Principal Component Analysis) to reduce the number of variables in a dataset while preserving as much information as possible.

9. ANOVA (Analysis of Variance): A statistical method used to compare the means of three or more samples, determining if at least one mean is different.

10. Machine Learning Integration: Applying machine learning algorithms to enhance data analysis, enabling predictions, and automation of tasks.
