Data analysis is the process of analyzing and discovering useful information from data.
The process has a handful of steps:
- Decide which questions you want to answer
- Figure out which data you need
- Decide how you want to measure and gather your data
- After collecting the data, you can use different tools to spot patterns
- Analyze/conclude your findings
- Communicate/share the findings
💡 The analysis process is iterative. You will sometimes repeat the same steps to get different or more accurate results based on newly acquired data.
