Python Data Analysis

By: Avinash Navlani, Cornellius Yudha Wijaya

Overview of this book

Modern data analysis goes beyond cleaning and visualizing data. Today's practitioners need to build scalable data pipelines, apply machine learning, work with text and image data, and understand emerging AI techniques such as Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). This guide shows you how to tackle these challenges using Python's modern data ecosystem. Unlike books focused on a single library or technique, this book provides an end-to-end approach to Python data analysis. You'll learn how to move from data preparation and exploratory analysis to machine learning, NLP, image analytics, scalable processing, and AI-powered workflows. Starting with statistical foundations, you'll learn how to clean, transform, wrangle, and visualize data. You'll then explore time series analysis, signal processing, forecasting, and predictive analytics before applying machine learning techniques such as regression, classification, clustering, PCA, probabilistic methods, and Bayesian approaches. The book also covers graph analytics, sentiment analysis, NLP, image analytics, Generative AI, and LLMs. Finally, you'll learn to scale analytics workflows using Dask, Modin, Ray, and PySpark. By the end of the book, you'll be able to build end-to-end data analysis pipelines and apply modern data science and AI techniques to solve real-world challenges.

Grasping the essence of NumPy arrays

NumPy arrays are the most widely used single or multidimensional array object for scientific and engineering applications. Before starting to work on arrays, we need to install NumPy on a personal computer using the pip or brew command.

# using pip command
pip install numpy

# using brew on mac operating system
brew install numpy

If you are using the Jupyter Notebook, then there is no need to install it because it is already installed in the Jupyter Notebook. My recommendation is to use the Jupyter Notebook IDE because it is easy to execute and experiment with data.

In Chapter 1, we have already discussed the installation of Anaconda, which is a complete software suite for data analysis and machine learning operations. NumPy arrays are a sequence of homogenous elements. Homogeneous means the array should have all the elements of the same data types such as int, float, double, etc. There are multiple ways to create an array using NumPy . Let’...
