EDA is where messy data starts making sense.
Before building a model, you need to know what your dataset is actually telling you.
A solid EDA workflow moves from understanding the data → finding missing values → summarizing distributions → analyzing relationships → detecting outliers.
And each step answers a different question.
Are the columns correct?
What’s missing?
How is the data distributed?
Which variables move together?
Are there unusual values that could distort the analysis?
For Python developers and data professionals, knowing `pandas`, `seaborn`, and the right visualization techniques can turn EDA from guesswork into a repeatable process.
This cheat sheet brings the core EDA workflow into one place. Save it for your next data project. 📊
