In this course, you will learn how to perform predictive data analysis using Python. The ideal audience is those who want to start their careers as data analysts. The main goal of this course is to show you how to use statistics to draw useful insights from data which can help in predicting future behavior or patterns.

Beyond that, you’ll learn all the tools of the trade that data scientists use everyday including: NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, and Seaborn. You’ll learn not only how to extract meaningful insights from data, but you’ll also learn how to create stunning visualizations that you can use for reports.

Various datasets of real-world scenarios are used in each lesson to get you accustomed to handling any type of data. At the end of the course, you will work on two real-world projects that demonstrate how data analysis techniques are being used in the financial and advertisement sector to generate revenue.

Predictive Data Analysis with Python

# Sort
Sort, as the name suggests, simply sorts a `Series` object in ascending order. The `pandas` package provides functions to sort both the indexes and their values. The following functions are used for this:

* `sort_index()`__:__ This function sorts the *indexes* in ascending order. It works on the alphabetic, numeric, and alphanumeric *indexes*. The non-numeric index values are treated as corresponding [ASCII](http://www.asciitable.com/) codes and sorted accordingly.


In this lesson, the rank and sort functions of pandas objects are explained.
