This repository is a list of educational resources and tools I have gathered over time from various courses, books, and training programs related to data analytics and predictive methodologies. Despite the abundance of content in this field, I found that a comprehensive, well-structured resource was missingβso I decided to create one! π
I aim to gradually enrich this repository by adding real-world examples and Python code for each method, making it a go-to reference for anyone who wants to enter the world of data analytics. This collection covers everything from anomaly detection, trend forecasting, and segmentation to causal inference, risk assessment, and ethical AIβdesigned to help aspiring data professionals build a solid foundation.
- π Comprehensive Coverage: A single source that spans multiple domains of data analytics.
- π‘ Practical Focus: Real-life examples and reproducible code to aid learning.
- π For All Levels: Useful for beginners entering the field and professionals looking to deepen their expertise.
Stay tuned as I continue to expand and refine this resourceβyour contributions, feedback, and suggestions are always welcome! π
