DataHour: Exploring Heart Disease Data using Python

Data analytics is the science of analyzing raw data to make conclusions about that information.

It helps a business optimize its performance, perform more efficiently, maximize profit, or make more strategically guided decisions. The techniques and processes of data analytics have been automated into mechanical processes and algorithms that work over raw data for human consumption. Various approaches to data analytics include looking at what happened (descriptive analytics), why something happened (diagnostic analytics), what is going to happen (predictive analytics), or what should be done next (prescriptive analytics). Data analytics relies on a variety of software tools ranging from spreadsheets, data visualization, reporting tools, data mining programs, or open-source languages for the greatest data manipulation.

In this DataHour, Sagar will walk us through the process of performing Data Analysis on Heart Disease Dataset using the most efficient programming language “ Python”.
