Database: Ecdl - The European Pc Standard (European Computer Driving Licence Ser. #5)
by Bill McTaggartPreface This book is intended to help you successfully complete the test for Module 5 of the European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL). However before we start working through the actual content of the guide you may find it useful to know a little bit more about the ECDL in general and where this particular Module fits into the overall framework. What Is The ECDL? The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) is a European-wide qualification that enables people to demonstrate their competence in computer skills. It certifies the candidate's knowledge and competence in personal computer usage at a basic level and is based upon a single agreed syllabus. This syllabus covers a range of specific knowledge areas and skill sets, which are broken down into seven modules. Each of the modules must be passed before the ECDL certificate can be awarded, though they may be taken in any order but must be completed within a three year period. Testing of candidates is at audited testing centres, and successful completion of the test will demonstrate the holder's basic knowledge and competence in using a personal computer and common computer applications. The implementation of the ECDL in the UK is being managed by the British Computer Society. It is growing at a tremendous rate and is set to become the most widely recognised qualification in the field of work-related computer use.
The Data Wrangling Workshop: Create your own actionable insights using data from multiple raw sources, 2nd Edition
by Shubhadeep Roychowdhury Brian Lipp Dr. Tirthajyoti SarkarA beginner's guide to simplifying Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) processes with the help of hands-on tips, tricks, and best practices, in a fun and interactive way Key Features Explore data wrangling with the help of real-world examples and business use cases Study various ways to extract the most value from your data in minimal time Boost your knowledge with bonus topics, such as random data generation and data integrity checks Book Description While a huge amount of data is readily available to us, it is not useful in its raw form. For data to be meaningful, it must be curated and refined. If you're a beginner, then The Data Wrangling Workshop will help to break down the process for you. You'll start with the basics and build your knowledge, progressing from the core aspects behind data wrangling, to using the most popular tools and techniques. This book starts by showing you how to work with data structures using Python. Through examples and activities, you'll understand why you should stay away from traditional methods of data cleaning used in other languages and take advantage of the specialized pre-built routines in Python. Later, you'll learn how to use the same Python backend to extract and transform data from an array of sources, including the internet, large database vaults, and Excel financial tables. To help you prepare for more challenging scenarios, the book teaches you how to handle missing or incorrect data, and reformat it based on the requirements from your downstream analytics tool. By the end of this book, you will have developed a solid understanding of how to perform data wrangling with Python, and learned several techniques and best practices to extract, clean, transform, and format your data efficiently, from a diverse array of sources. What you will learn Get to grips with the fundamentals of data wrangling Understand how to model data with random data generation and data integrity checks Discover how to examine data with descriptive statistics and plotting techniques Explore how to search and retrieve information with regular expressions Delve into commonly-used Python data science libraries Become well-versed with how to handle and compensate for missing data Who this book is for The Data Wrangling Workshop is designed for developers, data analysts, and business analysts who are looking to pursue a career as a full-fledged data scientist or analytics expert. Although this book is for beginners who want to start data wrangling, prior working knowledge of the Python programming language is necessary to easily grasp the concepts covered here. It will also help to have a rudimentary knowledge of relational databases and SQL.
Data Wrangling with R
by Bradley C. BoehmkeThis guide for practicing statisticians, data scientists, and R users and programmers will teach the essentials of preprocessing: data leveraging the R programming language to easily and quickly turn noisy data into usable pieces of information. Data wrangling, which is also commonly referred to as data munging, transformation, manipulation, janitor work, etc., can be a painstakingly laborious process. Roughly 80% of data analysis is spent on cleaning and preparing data; however, being a prerequisite to the rest of the data analysis workflow (visualization, analysis, reporting), it is essential that one become fluent and efficient in data wrangling techniques.This book will guide the user through the data wrangling process via a step-by-step tutorial approach and provide a solid foundation for working with data in R. The author's goal is to teach the user how to easily wrangle data in order to spend more time on understanding the content of the data. By the end of the book, the user will have learned: How to work with different types of data such as numerics, characters, regular expressions, factors, and datesThe difference between different data structures and how to create, add additional components to, and subset each data structureHow to acquire and parse data from locations previously inaccessibleHow to develop functions and use loop control structures to reduce code redundancyHow to use pipe operators to simplify code and make it more readableHow to reshape the layout of data and manipulate, summarize, and join data sets

This is where skillful data analysts and data scientists come into play, wrangling and exploring data to generate valuable business insights. In order to do that, you'll need plenty of tools that enable you to extract the most useful knowledge from data.Data Wrangling with R will help you to gain a deep understanding of ways to wrangle and prepare datasets for exploration, analysis, and modeling. This data book enables you to get your data ready for more optimized analyses, develop your first data model, and perform effective data visualization.The book begins by teaching you how to load and explore datasets. Then, you'll get to grips with the modern concepts and tools of data wrangling. As data wrangling and visualization are intrinsically connected, you'll go over best practices to plot data and extract insights from it. The chapters are designed in a way to help you learn all about modeling, as you will go through the construction of a data science project from end to end, and become familiar with the built-in RStudio, including an application built with Shiny dashboards.By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to create your first data model and build an application with Shiny in R.What you will learnDiscover how to load datasets and explore data in RWork with different types of variables in datasetsCreate basic and advanced visualizationsFind out how to build your first data modelCreate graphics using ggplot2 in a step-by-step way in Microsoft Power BIGet familiarized with building an application in R with ShinyWho this book is forIf you are a professional data analyst, data scientist, or beginner who wants to learn more about data wrangling, this book is for you.
