Frequestly Asked Questions
Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming and modelling data to uncover patterns, trends and insights that support better decision-making in business and research. It helps organisations understand customer behaviour, improve performance and make evidence-based decisions.
There are several types of data analysis, including:
– Descriptive analysis — summarises what has happened.
– Diagnostic analysis — explores why something happened.
– Predictive analysis — forecasts future trends.
– Prescriptive analysis — suggests actions based on data.
These methods help businesses and analysts uncover meaning and apply insights.
Popular data analysis tools include spreadsheet software (e.g., Excel), statistical tools (like R and SAS), visualisation platforms (like Tableau and Power BI), and programming languages such as Python. Many businesses also use analytics built into Google tools to track and interpret data.
Beginners should start by learning fundamental skills such as data collection, basic statistics, Excel functions, and data visualisation basics. Online courses, hands-on projects and tutorials on tools like Python or SQL can build confidence and practical skills over time.
Data analysis helps organisations identify trends in sales, customer behaviour, and operational performance, enabling them to forecast demand, optimise marketing strategies, improve products and reduce costs. It’s essential for turning raw data into actionable decisions.
