Introduction Working with variables in data analysis always drives the question: How are the variables dependent, linked, and varying against each other? Covariance and Correlation measures aid in establishing this. Covariance brings about the variation across variables. We use covariance to measure how much two variables change with each other. Correlation reveals the relation between the variables. We use correlation to determine how strongly linked two variables are to each other. In this article, we’ll learn how to calculate the […]

Introduction When we’re trying to describe and summarize a sample of data, we probably start by finding the mean (or average), the median, and the mode of the data. These are central tendency measures and are often our first look at a dataset. In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to find or compute the mean, the median, and the mode in Python. We’ll first code a Python function for each measure followed by using Python’s statistics module to accomplish the […]
