Here is the corrected and properly aligned Python for Data Analytics roadmap based on the
content and logical structure for learning:
Python for Data Analytics Roadmap
1. Python Basics (Foundation)
Syntax & Indentation
Comments: # (single line), """ """ (multi-line)
Variables & Data Types: int, float, str, bool
Type Conversion & Casting: int(), float(), str(), type()
Input & Output: input(), print()
Operators:
Arithmetic: +, -, *, /, %, **, //
Comparison: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=
Logical: and, or, not
Assignment: =, +=, -=, *=
Bitwise: &, |, ^, ~, <<, >>
Strings:
Operations: concatenation +, repetition *, slicing [:]
Methods: .upper(), .lower(), .strip(), .replace(), .split(), .join()
Formatting: f-strings, .format()
2. Data Structures
Lists: creation, indexing, slicing, append(), extend(), pop()
Tuples: immutable sequences
Sets: unique elements, operations (union, intersection, difference)
Dictionaries: key-value pairs, keys(), values(), items(), get()
Nested Structures: lists of lists, dict of dicts
Collections module: Counter, defaultdict
3. Control Structures
Conditional Statements: if, elif, else
Loops:
for loops
while loops
Loop controls: break, continue, pass
Comprehensions: list, dictionary, set comprehensions
4. Functions & Modules
Defining & Calling Functions with def
Function Arguments: positional, keyword, default, *args, **kwargs
Return Values
Lambda Functions
Modules & Imports: import, from ... import ...
Common Built-in Modules: math, random, datetime, os, sys, glob, re
5. File Handling
Reading files: open(), .read(), .readlines()
Writing files: .write(), .writelines()
CSV Files: csv module
JSON Files: json module
Excel Files: openpyxl, pandas.read_excel()
6. Error Handling
Exception Handling: try, except, else, finally
Common Exceptions: ValueError, TypeError, FileNotFoundError
Custom Exceptions
7. NumPy (Numerical Python)
Purpose: Efficient numerical computations and array operations
Key Concepts:
Arrays vs Lists: faster and memory-efficient
Vectorized operations
Array Creation:
np.array(), np.arange(), np.linspace(), np.zeros(), np.ones()
Array Operations:
Indexing & slicing, reshaping, broadcasting
Arithmetic operations: +, -, *, /, **
Aggregate functions: np.sum(), np.mean(), np.std(), np.min(), np.max()
Mathematical Functions: np.sin(), np.cos(), np.exp(), np.log()
Random Numbers: np.random.rand(), np.random.randint()
8. Pandas (Data Handling)
Purpose: High-level data manipulation for tabular data
Core Data Structures:
Series (1D labeled)
DataFrame (2D labeled)
Data Import & Export:
pd.read_csv(), pd.read_excel(), pd.read_json(), SQL connectors
.to_csv(), .to_excel()
Data Exploration:
.head(), .tail(), .info(), .describe()
Indexing, Selecting & Filtering:
Column: df['column']
Row: .iloc[], .loc[]
Conditional filtering
Data Cleaning:
Handling missing values: .fillna(), .dropna()
Removing duplicates: .drop_duplicates()
Renaming columns: .rename()
Grouping & Aggregation: .groupby(), .agg()
Pivot & Crosstab: .pivot_table(), pd.crosstab()
Merging & Joining: pd.merge(), pd.concat()
9. Matplotlib & Seaborn (Data Visualization)
Matplotlib (low-level control):
Basic plots: line, bar, histogram, scatter, pie
Customization: titles, labels, legends, colors, figure size
Saving plots: .savefig()
Seaborn (high-level statistical plots):
Distribution: sns.histplot(), sns.kdeplot()
Categorical: sns.boxplot(), sns.violinplot(), sns.barplot()
Relationships: sns.heatmap(), sns.pairplot()
Integration with Pandas DataFrames
Styling: themes and color palettes
10. Data Cleaning & Preprocessing
Handling missing values and duplicates
Standardizing strings
Feature scaling: min-max scaling, standardization
Encoding categorical variables: Label Encoding, One-Hot Encoding
Outlier detection: z-scores, IQR
Feature engineering techniques
11. Statistics for Data Analytics
Descriptive statistics: mean, median, mode
Dispersion: variance, standard deviation
Probability basics
Correlation and covariance
Hypothesis testing: t-test, chi-square, ANOVA
12. Data Analytics Concepts
Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
Preprocessing steps: missing values, scaling, encoding
Working with real-world datasets
Time Series Analysis:
Parsing dates, resampling, rolling statistics
13. Advanced Data Analytics with Python
SQL Integration:
sqlite3, SQLAlchemy, connecting to MySQL, PostgreSQL
Probability & Statistics:
Distributions: Normal, Binomial, Poisson
Statistical Inference
Regression basics: Linear, Logistic
Machine Learning (Scikit-Learn):
Preprocessing: train-test split, feature scaling
Algorithms: Regression, Classification, Clustering
Model evaluation: accuracy, confusion matrix, ROC curve
Time Series Analysis:
Handling datetime in pandas, resampling, trend, seasonality
Forecasting basics: moving averages, ARIMA
Big Data & APIs (Optional Advanced):
Handling large datasets with Dask, PySpark
APIs & web scraping: requests, BeautifulSoup
Cloud & BI Integration: Power BI, Tableau connectors
This layout maintains a logical sequence for learning Python for data analytics from basics to
advanced topics, with correct indentation and alignment for readability and pedagogical clarity.
Each topic is grouped and hierarchized with consistent bulleting and phrasing for ease of follow-
up study or curriculum building.
