Leveraging Excel® for Data Analysis

 

What Is It?

Data input needs to be done well. As the saying goes, garbage in … garbage out. So it’s important that there is a process to organizing your data (spreadsheet, or stat software). This includes determining if your data needs cleaning, such as removing duplicates or other errors. In order to make a good analysis you will need to determine the type of analysis you need to do based on whether or not it’s statistical, are you identifying relationships, etc. This video reviews what data analysis is, why do people want to know about it and offers examples of data analysis tools.
