✅ Python Project Load & Clean CSV Data ๐Ÿงน๐Ÿ“‚

๐Ÿ“Œ Problem Statement:
Write a Python script that loads a raw CSV file, cleans it, and makes it ready for analysis. This is one of the most important steps in data science and business reporting.


๐Ÿง  What You’ll Learn

  • How to read CSV files with pandas

  • Removing duplicates & handling missing values

  • Fixing column types (e.g., converting text to dates/numbers)

  • Saving cleaned data for future use


✅ Python Code

import pandas as pd # 1. Load raw CSV file df = pd.read_csv("raw_data.csv") # 2. Remove duplicate rows df = df.drop_duplicates() # 3. Handle missing values (example: fill empty 'Sales' with 0) df["Sales"] = df["Sales"].fillna(0) # 4. Convert 'Date' column into proper datetime format df["Date"] = pd.to_datetime(df["Date"]) # 5. Drop rows missing essential fields df = df.dropna(subset=["Region", "Product"]) # 6. Save cleaned data to a new CSV df.to_csv("cleaned_data.csv", index=False)

๐Ÿ“ค What This Script Does

  1. Loads messy CSV data

  2. Fixes common issues (nulls, duplicates, wrong data types)

  3. Exports a clean dataset ready for analysis


๐Ÿ› ️ Requirements

pip install pandas

๐Ÿ”ง Try Improving It

  • Make all column names lowercase and snake_case

  • Add logging to track cleaning steps

  • Save output to Excel with multiple sheets


๐Ÿ’ก Real-World Use Cases

✅ Preprocessing data before analysis
✅ Cleaning exported system reports
