What I've Been Up To...
This week on Medium I discussed the surprising difference between business analysts and data analysts. Full story here
ICYMI (in case you missed it) - last week I shared a tutorial for beginner data analysts on how to create a bar graph in Plotly, Seaborn, and Matplotlib. You can still find it here.
I posted two new datasets on Kaggle this week, both of which earned medals. Check out the Video Games Sales by Genre dataset for a simplified dataset to practice visualizations and the Lottery Winning Numbers dataset for an interesting opportunity for exploratory data analysis.
