Description
Python for Data Science A Hands-On Introduction by Yuli Vasiliev is an ideal introduction to data analysis with Python. This practical guide takes you through real-world examples and hands-on activities, teaching you how to write Python code to obtain, transform, and analyze data. You'll learn about Python's built-in data structures and its robust ecosystem of open-source libraries for data science, including NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib. Examples show how to load data in various formats, streamline, group, and aggregate data sets, and create charts, maps, and other visualizations. Later chapters demonstrate real-world data applications, such as using location data to power a taxi service, market basket analysis to identify items commonly purchased together, and machine learning to predict stock prices.
