This is false. We also call data analysis as analysis of
data or data analytics. Data analysis is a process of inspecting, cleansing,
transforming, and modeling data. The goal of this process is to discover useful
information, suggest conclusions, and support decision-making. The first step
in data analysis is to define the questions. The right questions should be
determined and these questions should be measurable, clear and concise. The
second one is that the measurement priorities should be clear. The sub-steps
under this are: A) decide what to measure, and B) decide how to measure it.
With the questions and the measurement priorities all set-up, it is now time to
collect the data. Providing that the correct data are collected, deeper data
analysis is to be done. Next is the manipulation of the data collected in a
number of different ways which could help in finding the answers to the
questions set-up in the beginning of the process such as plotting them out and
finding correlations.
