What is Data Science ?
Data Science is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms, and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data. It combines elements of statistics, mathematics, computer science, and domain expertise to uncover hidden patterns, derive meaningful insights, and create predictive models that can guide strategic decisions across various industries.
It encompasses the entire lifespan of data, from generation to actionable inferences, including intermediate stages like processing, reporting, prediction and visualization. It utilizes the principles of Data Analytics in conjunction with emerging technologies such as Big Data, Machine Learning, and Cloud Computing. At its core, Data Science is about solving complex problems and answering critical questions using data.
