DATASET
At present, we have been given a dataset from a time period between July 2010 to August 2012. We are also currently in the midst of requesting more data from our client.
Currently, Natasha keeps track of its purchases by members (in the form of dance packages) and attendance through a basic Excel spreadsheet using a legacy system. Thus, such manual input has resulted in various issues such as redundancy of data as well as data errors. For example, Hip Hop can be written as Hip Hop or Hip Hop (Kids), both of which are related to the same type of sale. In addition, some fields are also left blank. Thus, we anticipate that data cleansing needs to be done to address these issues. In addition, on top of performing data cleansing for our analysis, we also aim help to design a simple system for data entry purposes and eliminate the issues mentioned above. This also helps us to achieve the objective of continuity which will be beneficial to our client.
