Course Objectives: Purpose of this course is to introduce data science techniques to enhance the
decision-making strategies through analysis, interpretation, and management of data. It also aims to
provide overview of different data visualization techniques for efficient and effective data
representation.

Perform descriptive analysis and identify the data type and implement a method to find out
variation in data. For example, the difference between the highest and lowest marks in each
subject semester-wise. Plot the graph showing the results of students in each semester.
