Data Science Projects Using Python By Dr. Pratiyush Guleria (9789365894547)

This book provides a strong foundation in Python programming while gradually introducing core concepts of data science and machine learning. Beginning with Python fundamentals, the book covers data handling using NumPy and Pandas, data preprocessing techniques, and data visualization using Matplotlib. It further introduces supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning concepts using simple and illustrative examples. Each chapter includes exercises to support academic learning, competitive examinations, and interview preparation. The book also features beginner-level, illustrative projects to reinforce practical understanding.

By the end of this book, readers will be well-equipped with essential programming skills in Python and a clear understanding of data science workflows. They will be able to analyze data, visualize insights, apply basic machine learning techniques, and solve real-world problems with confidence.
