    I am currently studying to be a data analyst with no background in data at all. I was recommended this book and I am over halfway through so far. It is absolutely fantastic! It really helped me to organize and rethink the way I think about data which lowered my stress levels as I was overwhelmed with the learning process. I have also bought the companion book, which has excercies, and I will be reading it after I finish the current one.

    This video reminds me of a concept I learned on Dataquest called "data-ink ratio." Data-ink ratio is the idea of using the least amount of ink to communicate the most amount of data. So data : ink. Decades ago, when we used newspapers, it was a real art to craft a graph which used little ink and conveyed lots of data.
    An example of this would be placing the column titles at 9:10 in your video into the bars themselves, then coloring them to match the background. Also, making that very same text bigger. This would reduce the ink in a newspaper, but it has the effect of communicating each bar as an identity too. Your eyes won't need to dart left to right so much, making it easier to read.
    You could also experiment with making the text's size match the bar's size. So SQL would be spaced a little, but also huge, that way it uses more of the bar. Excel would do the same, but not quite as big. Doing this, you reduce the ink used for a newspaper. For our electronic, modern approach to consuming data, it just becomes another method of communicating the relative size of importance each skill has.
    Very, very timely video. I'm 99% finished with my data analyst course on Dataquest. Just one more %! Then I need to learn Excel and either Tableau or Power BI. I was leaning towards Tableau, but this video made me rethink Power BI. Choices! Thank you for another excellent video.

      I like this term of "data-ink ratio" such a very valid point and I think you made some great examples above. Sounds like you're on a great track! Don't worry about the selection of Tableau or Power BI, both of them are great options!

    Great video, as always! I especially loved your skit/ad.
    I suggest you consider a preliminary step like "does your data answer your question?" In your example, you asked a question about sequence: "what skill to learn FIRST as a Data Analyst?" Your data about relative probability does not address sequence. In other words, linear regression might be the top skill of a Statistician, but first, she needs to learn arithmetic.

    Part of the reason pie charts aren’t great has to do with how well humans perceive area. Humans are better at perceiving length than area, and better at area than volume.
    I don’t remember the name of the book, but it kinda of explains this my saying that visualizations are people using the physical space as a metaphor for numbers. The more complicated you make the metaphor, the more it become confusing rather than explanatory. The rawest form of data is just a table, and visualizations should only be as complicated as absolutely necessary.
    Personally, if I have 3 dimensions of data I’m trying to visualize, I prefer to have an x-axis, a y-axis, and some color scale (gray if the color is arbitrary, or whatever color I think would make the data more easily understandable)

    Five-step approach in communicating with data:
    1. understanding the Importance of context: (who you are communicating to what you want your audience to do and how can data help make that point)
    2. Choose an effective visual: (about 80% of the visuals used are either a bar chart or a line chart: you can more easily see their relative values compared to each other and also how they're trending over time and which one's on top and which one's on bottom)
    3. Remove Cluttering:
    4.Focus your audience's attention (size + color)
    5. Use words and titles:

    I'm going to need to print off a pie chart and cut it into little segments next time I'm exlaining to someone how difficult it is to present 4+ categories with them! If you want to keep the circle shape you could always organize your categories into race plots ( geom_bar in ggplot). Either way hope you don't mind me using this pie chart analogy in meetings (plagirism is the biggest form of complements).

    Hey Luke, there’s another (from the same author) book called “Storytelling with data: let’s practice” The author says that it works like a companion guide with the original book ( the one that you mentioned on the video). So I think it’s a great idea to read both books at the same time.

    Hello mister Barousse. I am a high school student who is soon to transition into college. I am very interested in data science and so I was doing some research on how to get started. Your videos have played a heavy impact on my first few steps. I have seen that you made videos in the past about certificates from Coursera which I found very interesting and helpful. However, I was hoping that you could make a video about courses to take from EdX that will prepare me to getting an internship/entry level part or full time job, as well as make my resume very inclining towards colleges and recruiters. In the video, please include which courses to take first and then which course to follow it up with and so on. :)

    Haha I thought the Morning Brew skit was golden, definitely not your last sponsored video! I've been binge watching your videos after looking into the data analyst career path. Currently 29 with a 3 yr old toddler, making $40k a year. Got a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies with a plan to teach math and science but with the way things are going in the education system at the moment I don't think it will end up happening. Currently managing an Electrical Contractor Service Company in Texas coordinating projects for Electricians and procuring materials from various sources for efficient project management. Luke, do you think that it would be possible to make a career change into data analytics with what I've done so far? I pretty much use Excel on a daily basis and am making an effort to master it a bit more but am really considering also picking up SQL and then maybe getting into the Google Data Analytics Cert course. I just want to make sure my family has a comfortable life and would like to put my brain to good use for that same reason. I feel like my skills and potential are being wasted here especially since the owner of the company is planning on retiring in the next 6 years. Thanks for you videos, giving me hope for the future.

    • @LukeBarousse
      @LukeBarousse  2 года назад +1

      I feel that it’s more than possible to change careers based on this! What would make it more likely is if you can find a data analyst roles that is within the industry that you have experience in, such as like the service industry. I’ve see a lot of people have success when they can use their past industry experience and transition into a role that requires more data analytical skills. It will just take some searching on your part. Hope this helps!
