Data Science Quiz

What is data collection in the context of data science?

• Analyzing and interpreting data

• Storing and organizing data

• Manipulating and transforming data

• Gathering and acquiring data from various sources.

Why is data cleaning important in data science?

• Data cleaning is important in data science because it ensures the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of the data.

• Data cleaning only focuses on the accuracy of the data.

• Data cleaning is not important in data science.

• Data cleaning is time-consuming and unnecessary in data science.

What is data analysis and why is it crucial in data science?

• Data analysis is the process of collecting and storing data for future use.

• Data analysis is not important in data science as it can be done manually.

• Data analysis is only used for academic research and has no practical applications in the real world.

• Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data to discover useful information, draw conclusions, and support decision-making. It is crucial in data science because it helps in understanding the data, identifying patterns and trends, making predictions, and deriving insights that can drive business decisions.

How can box and whisker plots be interpreted?

• By analyzing the five key summary statistics and visualizing the distribution, skewness, and outliers in the data.

• By examining the mode and median of the data.

• By looking at the range of the data.

• By analyzing the mean and standard deviation of the data.

What is the purpose of data visualization in data science?

• To make data more confusing and difficult to understand.

• To hide patterns, trends, and relationships within the data.

• To present data in a written format instead of visual format.

• To present data in a visual format and help understand patterns, trends, and relationships within the data.
