Prerequisites

Introduction to DAX in Power BI
1

Initial Exploratory Data Analysis in Power BI

You’ll begin this Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) course by learning how to use descriptive statistics and identify missing data, and apply imputation techniques to fill the gaps in your data.
Start Chapter
2

Distributions and Outliers

In the second chapter of this course you'll learn how to identify and address outliers within the dataset. You will build histograms to analyze distributions and use winsorizing to remove outliers.
Start Chapter
3

EDA with Categorical Variables

Now it’s time to explore the relationships between categorical variables using proportions. You’ll then use box plots and descriptive statistics to determine how a continuous variable is influenced by a categorical one.

What is Exploratory Data Analysis?

Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) involves using statistical techniques and visualization methods to understand the structure and main characteristics of a dataset. The goals of EDA include answering questions, testing business assumptions, generating hypotheses for further analysis, and preparing the data for modeling. This process helps analysts develop a good intuition about the data, identify patterns, and spot any challenges such as missing values or outliers​.
