Differentiate between univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis.

Univariate analysis are descriptive statistical analysis techniques which can be differentiated based on one variable involved at a given point of time. For example, the pie charts of sales based on territory involve only one variable and can the analysis can be referred to as univariate analysis.

The bivariate analysis attempts to understand the difference between two variables at a time as in a scatterplot. For example, analyzing the volume of sale and spending can be considered as an example of bivariate analysis.

Multivariate analysis deals with the study of more than two variables to understand the effect of variables on the responses.

Why Central Limit Theorem is Important for evey Data Scientist?

The Central Limit Theorem is at the core of what every data scientist does daily: make statistical inferences about data. The theorem gives us the ability to quantify the likelihood that our sample will deviate from the population without having to take any new sample to compare it with. We don’t need the characteristics about the whole population to understand the likelihood of our sample being representative of it. The concepts of confidence interval and hypothesis testing are based on the CLT. By knowing that our sample mean will fit somewhere in a normal distribution, we know that 68 percent of the observations lie within one standard deviation from the population mean, 95 percent will lie within two standard deviations and so on. In other words we can say " It all has to do with the distribution of our population. This theorem allows you to simplify problems in statistics by allowing you to work with a distribution that is approximately normal."  The CLT is...

Data Science Skills

Below are some of the data science skills that every data scientist must know: 1. Change is the only constant It’s not about “Learning Data Science”, it’s about “improving your Data Science skills! The subjects you are learning currently in Grad School are important because no learning go waste but, the real world practicality is totally different from the theory of the books which is taught for decades. Don’t cramp the information, rather understand the big picture. A report states that 50% of things that you learn today regarding IT will be outdated in 4 years. Technology can become obsolete but, learning can’t be. You should have the attitude of learning, updating your knowledge and focusing on your skills(Get your Basics clear) and not on the information you learn! This will help you to survive in this tough and competitive world (I am not scaring you, I am just asking you to prepare your best! You should start focusing on the below skills for becoming a data scientist –...
