Why Are We Doing This?
Our goal is to foster a vibrant community where individuals can demonstrate their abilities, learn from each other, and receive feedback on their work. It's not just about winning; it's about growing, sharing, and celebrating the world of data science.

How Do Participants Get Involved?
Participants will choose a dataset aligned with their skill level, either beginner or advanced, and submit a Jupyter notebook showcasing their analysis.
