A Textbook of Data Science for Class 9


Book Description

Data sCIenCe is the field of study that combines domain expertise, programming skills, and knowledge of mathematics and statistics to extract meaningful insights from data. Data science or data-driven science enables better decision-making, predictive analysis, and pattern discovery. It lets you find the leading cause of a problem by asking the right questions and performing an exploratory study on the data. It models the data using various algorithms and communicates and visualizes the results via graphs, dashboards, etc. This book is based on the latest CBSE syllabus. The book is divided into two sections: Part A and Part B. Part A includes the “Employability Skills” and Part B covers the “Subject-specific Skills”. This book presents the concepts in a very simple language with easy-to-understand examples adapted from day-to-day utilization of Data science technology. The chapters are supplemented with figures and additional information in the form of “DID yoU knoW”. In between the chapters, the students are given a chance to revise and challenge their understanding with the help of “CheCk yoUr knoWleDGe” and fun activities. At the end of every chapter, Multiple Choice Questions, Short and Long answer questions are given. It includes HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) questions and Applied Projects for advanced and practical kinds of questions.




R for Data Science


Book Description

Learn how to use R to turn raw data into insight, knowledge, and understanding.

You'll get a complete, big-picture understanding of the data science cycle, along with basic tools you need to manage the details. Each section of the book is paired with exercises to help you practice what you've learned along the way. You'll learn how to: Wrangle—transform your datasets into a form convenient for analysis Program—learn powerful R tools for solving data problems with greater clarity and ease Explore—examine your data, generate hypotheses, and quickly test them Model—provide a low-dimensional summary that captures true "signals" in your dataset Communicate—learn R Markdown for integrating prose, code, and results




Introduction to Data Science


Book Description

Introduction to Data Science: Data Analysis and Prediction Algorithms with R introduces concepts and skills that can help you tackle real-world data analysis challenges. It covers concepts from probability, statistical inference, linear regression, and machine learning. It also helps you develop skills such as R programming, data wrangling, data visualization, predictive algorithm building, file organization with UNIX/Linux shell, version control with Git and GitHub, and reproducible document preparation. This book is a textbook for a first course in data science. No previous knowledge of R is necessary, although some experience with programming may be helpful. The book is divided into six parts: R, data visualization, statistics with R, data wrangling, machine learning, and productivity tools. Each part has several chapters meant to be presented as one lecture. The author uses motivating case studies that realistically mimic a data scientist’s experience. He starts by asking specific questions and answers these through data analysis so concepts are learned as a means to answering the questions. Examples of the case studies included are: US murder rates by state, self-reported student heights, trends in world health and economics, the impact of vaccines on infectious disease rates, the financial crisis of 2007-2008, election forecasting, building a baseball team, image processing of hand-written digits, and movie recommendation systems. The statistical concepts used to answer the case study questions are only briefly introduced, so complementing with a probability and statistics textbook is highly recommended for in-depth understanding of these concepts. If you read and understand the chapters and complete the exercises, you will be prepared to learn the more advanced concepts and skills needed to become an expert.
