Box Office Revenue Analysis and Visualization

Day 4 and 5 of 100 Days of Data Science.Welcome back to my 100 Days of Data Science Challenge Journey. On day 4 and 5, I work on TMDB Box Office Prediction Dataset available on Kaggle. I’ll start by importing some useful libraries that we need in this task.

Welcome back to my 100 Days of Data Science Challenge Journey. On day 4 and 5, I work on TMDB Box Office Prediction Dataset available on Kaggle.

I’ll start by importing some useful libraries that we need in this task.

import pandas as pd

## for visualizations
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
%matplotlib inline
plt.style.use('dark_background')

Data Loading and Exploration

Once you downloaded data from the Kaggle, you will have 3 files. As this is a prediction competition, you have train, test, and sample_submission file. For this project, my motive is only to perform data analysis and visuals. I am going to ignore test.csv and sample_submission.csv files.

%time train = pd.read_csv('./data/tmdb-box-office-prediction/train.csv')

## output
CPU times: user 258 ms, sys: 132 ms, total: 389 ms
Wall time: 403 ms

Many a time, I have seen beginners in data science skip exploratory data analysis (EDA) and jump straight into building a hypothesis function or model. In my opinion, this should not be the case.
