Please answer the questions before in no less than 100 words.

(1) Explain what data is, with the help of two real -life examples.
Ans: The data is a term that is referred to the computers information. Such type of information is
generally stored or transferred by the user. Always data is present in an form which can be in
number, text, video, pictures, audio etc.

(2) How is the data categorized?

Ans: The data is categorized in two types those are:
(a) Qualitative Data: It is the data where the data is a descriptive piece of information. For ex:
“What a pleasant day it is.”
(b) (b) Quantitative Data: It is the data which contains the numerical form of information. For
ex: “2”, “5.55”, “420” etc. Quantitative Data is been divided into two forms of data i.e is
Discrete Data and Continuous Data.
(3) What is Discrete Data?
Ans: Discrete data is expressed in the term of the value which is specific. Such type of data can be
also counted.
The examples of such type of data are:
(a) Number of months in a year.
(b) Number of family members in a family.
(c) Number of days in a week.

(4) What is Continuous Data?

Ans: In this type of data, from an interval any value is taken. Hence such type of data is measurable.
The examples of continuous data are:
(a) What is the amount of oxygen found in the atmosphere.
(b) What are the ages of the members in the family.

(5) Give two examples of real-life applications of data.

Ans: Entertainment and Education are the two examples of real-life applications of data.

6) Give five examples of discreate data around you?

Ans: The examples of discrete data around me are as followed:
(a) Number of students in the class.
(b) Number of books in a library.
(c) Number of flowers in a garden.
(d) Number of cars in a showroom.
(e) Number of mangoes in a basket.

Please answer the questions below in no less than 100 words:

(1) What are the common career paths for data science?
Ans: Data Scientist, Business Intelligence Analyst, Data Mining Engineer, Data Architect, Senior
Data Scientist etc are some of the common career paths for data science.
(2) What does Data Architect do?
Ans: Data Architects are the person who works together with the users or with the designers or
developers of the system in order to make a blue print which is used by the data management
systems for centralizing, integrating and maintaining of the data sources.

(3) What are the difference between classification and regression?

Ans: The difference between classification and regression are as followed:
(a) Classification: Classification helps us in order to predict that any new item which falls or
belongs to any of the category/class A or B. If the person tries to make the prediction between more
than two options, then it is termed as multiclass algorithms.
(b) Regression: The method of predicting the value of a continuous variable is to be termed as the
Regression.

(4) Discuss a recent innovation that makes use of reinforcement learning.

Ans: Sometimes the problems related to the models of automatic robots or self driving cars occurs.
Such problems needs to be solved by making decisions which should be tally based on the external
factors. Hence reinforcement learning helps in solving such type of occurred problems of the
models by taking decision on the external factors.
(5) Write a short note on how data science is helping sports teams.
Ans: Data science helps the sports teams by making the future predictive analysis which will help
the teams in overcoming/fulfilling all the necessary things which is to be required to be fulfilled
during the game day. Nowadays some sports channels makes use of data science in order to predict
the overall performance of the team or players in the game or tournament. It also helps in making
accurate decisions.

(6) What is Data Science?

Ans . Data science is a field that deals with the extraction of insights and knowledge from data.
Simply put, it's a way to make sense of large amounts of data and use it to make decisions or
predictions.
Think of data science as detective work, where data scientists collect data, analyze it, and use it to
find answers to important questions. This could be anything from figuring out what products people
are buying, to finding patterns in medical data that could help prevent diseases.

(7) Write Benefits of using Data Science.

Ans. Following are the benefits of using Data Science in a business:

 Extracting insights and knowledge from data that can inform decision-making and
optimize business processes.

 Making predictions about future trends and patterns in data

 Identifying new opportunities and areas for growth
 Improving efficiency and automating repetitive tasks
 Enhancing personalization and customer experience
 Assessing and mitigating risks
 Identifying and solving complex problems
 Improving the accuracy of predictions and forecasting
