Overview of this book

Jumping into data analysis without proper data cleaning will certainly lead to incorrect results. The Python Data Cleaning Cookbook - Second Edition will show you tools and techniques for cleaning and handling data with Python for better outcomes. Fully updated to the latest version of Python and all relevant tools, this book will teach you how to manipulate and clean data to get it into a useful form. he current edition focuses on advanced techniques like machine learning and AI-specific approaches and tools for data cleaning along with the conventional ones. The book also delves into tips and techniques to process and clean data for ML, AI, and NLP models. You will learn how to filter and summarize data to gain insights and better understand what makes sense and what does not, along with discovering how to operate on data to address the issues you've identified. Next, you’ll cover recipes for using supervised learning and Naive Bayes analysis to identify unexpected values and classification errors and generate visualizations for exploratory data analysis (EDA) to identify unexpected values. Finally, you’ll build functions and classes that you can reuse without modification when you have new data. By the end of this Data Cleaning book, you'll know how to clean data and diagnose problems within it.

Technical requirements

The code and notebooks for this chapter are available on GitHub at https://github.com/michaelbwalker/Python-Data-Cleaning-Cookbook-Second-Edition. You can use any IDE (Integrated Development Environment) of your choice – IDLE, Visual Studio, Sublime, Spyder, and so on – or Jupyter Notebook to work with any of the code in this chapter, or any chapter in this book. A good guide to get started with Jupyter Notebook can be found here: https://www.dataquest.io/blog/jupyter-notebook-tutorial/. I used the Spyder IDE to write the code in this chapter.

I used pandas 2.2.1 and NumPy version 1.24.3 for all of the code in this chapter and subsequent chapters. I have also tested all code with pandas 1.5.3.
