Process of Data Science

A recent article in the Harvard Business Review regarded ‘Data Scientist’ as the most appealing job of the 21st century. There are several reasons for this claim, but the main one comes from the diverse set of skills needed and the shortage of professionals with such background or experience. So, what’s data science about after all? It’s about asking the right questions to transform data into business value using statistics and algorithms. While other fields concentrate on finding previously unknown knowledge or searching for a specific pattern, data science focuses on answering deep questions and making conclusions understandable to the rest of the organization.
