Getting Started with Python Data Analysis
Learn to use powerful Python libraries for effective data processing and analysisAbout This Book• Learn the basic processing steps in data analysis and how to use Python in this area through supported packages, especially Numpy, Pandas, and Matplotlib• Create, manipulate, and analyze your data to extract useful information to optimize your system• A hands-on guide to help you learn data analysis using PythonWho This Book Is ForIf you are a Python developer who wants to get started with data analysis and you need a quick introductory guide to the python data analysis libraries, then this book is for you.What You Will Learn• Understand the importance of data analysis and get familiar with its processing steps• Get acquainted with Numpy to use with arrays and array-oriented computing in data analysis• Create effective visualizations to present your data using Matplotlib• Process and analyze data using the time series capabilities of Pandas• Interact with different kind of database systems, such as file, disk format, Mongo, and Redis• Apply the supported Python package to data analysis applications through examples• Explore predictive analytics and machine learning algorithms using Scikit-learn, a Python libraryIn DetailData analysis is the process of applying logical and analytical reasoning to study each component of data. Python is a multi-domain, high-level, programming language. It's often used as a scripting language because of its forgiving syntax and operability with a wide variety of different eco-systems. Python has powerful standard libraries or toolkits such as Pylearn2 and Hebel, which offers a fast, reliable, cross-platform environment for data analysis.With this book, we will get you started with Python data analysis and show you what its advantages are.The book starts by introducing the principles of data analysis and supported libraries, along with NumPy basics for statistic and data processing. Next it provides an overview of the Pandas package and uses its powerful features to solve data processing problems.Moving on, the book takes you through a brief overview of the Matplotlib API and some common plotting functions for DataFrame such as plot. Next, it will teach you to manipulate the time and data structure, and load and store data in a file or database using Python packages. The book will also teach you how to apply powerful packages in Python to process raw data into pure and helpful data using examples.Finally, the book gives you a brief overview of machine learning algorithms, that is, applying data analysis results to make decisions or build helpful products, such as recommendations and predictions using scikit-learn. Style and approachThis is an easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide to get you familiar with data analysis and the libraries supported by Python. Topics are explained with real-world examples wherever required.

Python Business Intelligence Cookbook
Leverage the computational power of Python with more than 60 recipes that arm you with the required skills to make informed business decisionsAbout This Book• Want to minimize risk and optimize profits of your business? Learn to create efficient analytical reports with ease using this highly practical, easy-to-follow guide• Learn to apply Python for business intelligence tasks—preparing, exploring, analyzing, visualizing and reporting—in order to make more informed business decisions using data at hand• Learn to explore and analyze business data, and build business intelligence dashboards with the help of various insightful recipesWho This Book Is ForThis book is intended for data analysts, managers, and executives with a basic knowledge of Python, who now want to use Python for their BI tasks. If you have a good knowledge and understanding of BI applications and have a “working” system in place, this book will enhance your toolbox.What You Will Learn• Install Anaconda, MongoDB, and everything you need to get started with your data analysis• Prepare data for analysis by querying cleaning and standardizing data• Explore your data by creating a Pandas data frame from MongoDB• Gain powerful insights, both statistical and predictive, to make informed business decisions• Visualize your data by building dashboards and generating reports• Create a complete data processing and business intelligence systemIn DetailThe amount of data produced by businesses and devices is going nowhere but up. In this scenario, the major advantage of Python is that it's a general-purpose language and gives you a lot of flexibility in data structures. Python is an excellent tool for more specialized analysis tasks, and is powered with related libraries to process data streams, to visualize datasets, and to carry out scientific calculations. Using Python for business intelligence (BI) can help you solve tricky problems in one go.Rather than spending day after day scouring Internet forums for “how-to” information, here you'll find more than 60 recipes that take you through the entire process of creating actionable intelligence from your raw data, no matter what shape or form it's in. Within the first 30 minutes of opening this book, you'll learn how to use the latest in Python and NoSQL databases to glean insights from data just waiting to be exploited.We'll begin with a quick-fire introduction to Python for BI and show you what problems Python solves. From there, we move on to working with a predefined data set to extract data as per business requirements, using the Pandas library and MongoDB as our storage engine.Next, we will analyze data and perform transformations for BI with Python. Through this, you will gather insightful data that will help you make informed decisions for your business. The final part of the book will show you the most important task of BI—visualizing data by building stunning dashboards using Matplotlib, PyTables, and iPython Notebook.Style and approa
