Chapter 3. The Five Steps of Data Science

We have spent quite some time looking at the preliminaries of data science, including outlining the types of data and how to approach datasets depending on their type.

In this chapter, in addition to the introduction of data science, we will focus on the following topics:

Steps to perform data science
Data exploration
Data visualization

We will use the Python packages pandas and matplotlib to explore different datasets.

Tibaldeschi

Marco Tibaldeschi, born in 1983, Master's degree in informatic engineering, has actively worked on the web since 1994. Thanks to the fact that he is the fourth of four brothers, he has always had a foot in the future. In 1998 he registered his fist domain which was one of the fist virtual web communities in Italy. Because of this, he has been interviewed by different national newspapers and radio stations, and a research book has been written by University of Pisa in order to understand the social phenomenon. In 2003, he founded DBN Communication, a web consulting company that owns and develops eDock, a SaaS that helps sellers to manage their inventories and orders on the biggest marketplaces in the world (like Amazon and eBay).
