Working with Data - Join Us as a Contributor!
The AI Learning Hub Open Source platform is expanding, and we need your expertise to help build comprehensive, beginner-friendly tutorials on Working with Data. This section aims to empower learners with essential skills for data manipulation, analysis, and visualization—foundational knowledge for any aspiring data scientist or machine learning practitioner.
We’re calling on contributors to create or enhance tutorials on a range of topics. Your contributions can help shape how learners across the globe understand and work with data!
Example Topics We’d Like to Cover
We’re building tutorials in three core areas: Pandas, Data Visualization, and NumPy. Below are some example topics to give you a general idea of what we’d like to include. These are not exhaustive—any suggestions or additions are greatly appreciated!
Pandas
- Series & DataFrames: Understand the building blocks of Pandas.
- Editing & Retrieving Data: Learn data selection and modification techniques.
- Importing Data: Import data from CSV, Excel, and databases.
- Grouping Data: Use
groupby
for aggregate operations. - Merging & Joining Data: Combine datasets efficiently.
- Sorting & Filtering: Organize and retrieve data.
- Applying Functions to Data: Use functions to manipulate and clean data.
