What is Descriptive Analysis?
Descriptive analysis summarizes the main features of a dataset using statistics and visualizations. It answers basic questions about the data: what are the typical values, how spread out are they, and what does the distribution look like. Descriptive analysis is always the first step before any more advanced analytical work.
