Are Your Data Tidy? Or, untidy?

Before data can be modeled, analyzed or interpreted…

…data must be accessible in meaning-laden forms.

Annually, many Analysts around the globe report expending up to 80% of the effort and duration of an investigation in “wrangling” and “tidying” data into a “shape” that enables thoughtful, economical analysis. Does this sound like one of your projects?

Data Science Initiative - Hands-on Workshop Series

As part of its Hands-on Workshop Series, the Chico Data Science Initiative is pleased to provide this practical and applied session. Preparing Data for Analysis is designed to assist everyone that analyzes data succeed and avoid (and/or resolve) frustrating problems unfortunately inherent in many datasets.

The Preparing Data for Analysis Workshop offers something for everyone…from the earliest of beginners to the most sophisticated Data Scientists.

Data Science Initiative: Learning, Doing and…Cookies!

In addition to a place in space and time where interesting people address and resolve challenging questions, the Data Science Initiative also has a reputation for three fabulous things:

  • Learning (about data, modeling, analysis, interpretation, visualization, etc.);
  • Doing (all the above plus mentoring and problem-resolution); and
  • Cookies (considered self-evident).
