Vital terms of Statistics
In the previous article we’ve touched up on what data , however we haven’t understood how we get the data.
Lets look in to that for a bit .
DATA SOURCES
There are basically 2 Types of data Sources
1. Primary Data
2. Secondary Data
Primary Data: Data that is being collected regularly (Data collected on daily basis).
Secondary Data: Data which is already been collected and stored, which might be for a set of days.
Let’s touch a bit on the types of Data sets.
What are Data sets?
A data set is a collection of numbers or values that relate to a particular subject.
Example: The test scores of each student in a particular class is a data set.
Types of Data Sets:
Data sets are broadly classified in to 3 groups namely:
· *Record Data: *Most basic form of which has no relation between records or data fields and every data object has same set of attributes.
Examples*: *Transaction data, data matrix.
Data Science and Analytics market evolves to adapt to the constantly changing economic and business environments. Our latest survey report suggests that as the overall Data Science and Analytics market evolves to adapt to the constantly changing economic and business environments, data scientists and AI practitioners should be aware of the skills and tools that the broader community is working on. A good grip in these skills will further help data science enthusiasts to get the best jobs that various industries in their data science functions are offering.
