Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we will look at various ways to get an overview of the data. When we are analyzing a new dataset, it is beneficial to get a sense of the layout of the data first. Exploratory data analysis (EDA) is a collection of analysis techniques that we can apply to the data for this purpose. Most of these techniques are often simple to implement as well as computationally inexpensive, which allow us to obtain the exploratory results quickly.
