Data Preparation

1. Data Selection From all the 48 variables, I choose 11 of them. Accident Day Accident Weekday Accident Month Major Industry Sub Industry Body Pars Injured Nature of Injury Accident Type level 2 Category Cause Occupation Months worked 2. Check the distribution of the fields To check the categorized data and numerical data and see whether they are valid. For categorized data, I need to know whether the categorizations are typed correct. For numerical data, I need to see whether the distribution make sense. 3. Lowercase Formatting (Occupation) I noticed that the format of Occupation is not consistent which will make it troublesome when using this field. So I used JMP Pro to lowercase the data.
