Process for Making Sense of Data
1. Problem definition and planning: The problem to be solved and the
projected deliverables should be clearly defined and planned, and an
appropriate team should be assembled to perform the analysis.
2. Data preparation: Prior to starting a data analysis or data mining
project, the data should be collected, characterized, cleaned,
transformed, and partitioned into an appropriate form for further
processing.
3. Analysis: Based on the information from steps 1 and 2, appropriate data
analysis and data mining techniques should be selected. These methods
often need to be optimized to obtain the best results.
4. Deployment: The results from step 3 should be communicated and/or
deployed to obtain the projected benefits identified at the start of the
project.

Describing Data
Descriptive statistics aims to summarize a sample,
rather than use the data to learn about the population
that the sample of data is thought to represent.
Descriptive statistics help us to simplify large amounts
of data in a sensible way.
The data /variables can be both quantitative and
qualitative in nature.
Some measures that are commonly used to describe a
data set are measures of
Central tendency and
Measures of variability
