This is the code repository for Python Data Analysis - Third Edition, published by Packt.
Perform data collection, data processing, wrangling, visualization, and model building using Python
Data analysis enables you to generate value from small and big data by discovering new patterns and trends, and Python is one of the most popular tools for analyzing a wide variety of data. With this book, you’ll get up and running using Python for data analysis by exploring the different phases and methodologies used in data analysis and learning how to use modern libraries from the Python ecosystem to create efficient data pipelines.
This book covers the following exciting features:
- Explore data science and its various process models
- Perform data manipulation using NumPy and pandas for aggregating, cleaning, and handling missing values
- Create interactive visualizations using Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Bokeh
- Retrieve, process, and store data in a wide range of formats
- Understand data preprocessing and feature engineering using pandas and scikit-learn

All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter02.
The code will look like the following:
# Creating an array
import numpy as np
a = np.array([2,4,6,8,10])
print(a)
Following is what you need for this book: This book is for data analysts, business analysts, statisticians, and data scientists looking to learn how to use Python for data analysis. Students and academic faculties will also find this book useful for learning and teaching Python data analysis using a hands-on approach.
