Importing Datasets

Objectives
 Analyze Python data using a dataset
 Identify three Python libraries and describe their
uses

Chapter1- Importing Datasets 2


The Problem
 Why Data Analysis:
 Data is collected everywhere around us:
 Collected manually by scientists or collected digitally,

 Every time you click on a website, or your mobile device.

 Data does NOT mean information.


 Data analysis (data science) help us unlock the information
and insights from raw data to answer our questions.
 Data analysis plays an important role:
 Discover useful information from the data.

 Answer questions.

 Predict the future or the unknown.

The Problem
 Analysis the scenario- How can we help Mr. Hoa
determine the best price for his car?

Hoa

 Give your opinions: estimate used car prices

Chapter1- Importing Datasets 4


The Problem
 Let's say we have a friend named Hoa. And Hoa
wants to sell his car. But the problem is he doesn't
know how much he should sell his car for.
 Hoa wants to sell his car for as much as he can.
 But he also wants to set the price reasonably, so
someone would want to purchase it.
 So the price he sets should represent the value of
the car.

Chapter1- Importing Datasets 5


The Problem
 Let's think like data scientists and clearly define some
of his problems:
 Is there data on the prices of other cars and their characteristics?
 What features of cars affect their prices?
 Color, Brand?
 Does horsepower also effect the selling price, or perhaps
something else?

 As a data analyst or data scientist, these are some of


the questions we can start thinking about. To answer
these questions, we're going to need some data.

Understanding the Data
 We'll be looking at the dataset on used car prices.
 The dataset used in this course is an open dataset by Jeffrey
C. Schlemmer.

Python Packages for Data
Science
 A Python library is a collection of functions and methods:
perform lots of actions without writing any code.
 The libraries usually contain built in modules providing
different functionalities which you can use directly.

 The Python data analysis libraries is divided three groups.


 Scientific computing libraries
 Visualization libraries
 Algorithmic libraries
