Performing Univariate Analysis in Python
When performing univariate analysis, we are usually interested in analyzing one or more variables in our dataset individually. Some insights we can glean during univariate analysis include the median, mode, maximum, range, and outliers. Univariate analysis can be performed on both categorical and numerical variables. Several chart options can be explored for both types of variables. These chart options can help us understand the underlying distribution of our data and identify any hidden patterns within the dataset. It is important to understand when to use each chart as this will ensure the accuracy of our analysis and the insights we derive from it.
In this chapter, we will cover the following:
