cd shopping-trend-data-analysis
-
Install the required libraries: Make sure you have Python 3.x installed. Then, install the necessary libraries using pip: pip install numpy pandas seaborn matplotlib
-
Open Jupyter Notebook: Launch Jupyter Notebook to interact with the analysis scripts:
After setting up the environment, you can start analyzing shopping data by running the Jupyter notebooks provided in this repository. The notebooks include sections for data acquisition, preparation, analysis, and visualization.
The project follows a structured methodology consisting of five key steps:
- Data Acquisition: Collecting data from various sources such as point-of-sale systems and e-commerce platforms.
- Data Preparation and Transformation: Cleaning and transforming data to ensure accuracy.
- Descriptive Analytics: Summarizing historical data to identify trends and patterns.
- Visual Analytics: Creating interactive visualizations for better understanding.
- Strategic Insights and Recommendations: Formulating actionable strategies based on analysis findings.
The analysis reveals significant insights into shopping behaviors and trends, enabling businesses to optimize inventory, tailor marketing campaigns, and enhance customer engagement strategies. Key visualizations include bar graphs, pie charts, and line graphs that illustrate sales volume and seasonal variations.
