Data Exploration

It is the first stage in data analysis that entails the use of data visualization tools and statistical approaches. It helps to identify data set features and initial patterns. It involves pruning data to remove useless bits and uncover possible correlations between different data types. Exploration allows for a deeper understanding of a dataset, making it easier to navigate and use the data later. In any situation where you have a massive set of information, data exploration can help cut it down to a manageable size and focus efforts on optimizing your analysis. Python and R programming are the two most widely used languages for data exploration. Two key advantages of data exploration are to enable unexpected discoveries in the data and to foster a deep understanding of the data as an essential fundament for successful and efficient data science projects.
