 In the world of data science, automation, and general programming, working with files is unavoidable. Whether you’re dealing with CSV reports, JSON APIs, Excel sheets, or text logs, Python provides rich and easy-to-use libraries for reading different file formats. In this guide, we’ll explore how to read different files in Python , with code examples and best practices. 1. Reading Text Files ( .txt ) Text files are the simplest form of files. Python’s built-in open() function handles them effortlessly. Example: # Open and read a text file with open ( "sample.txt" , "r" ) as file: content = file.read() print (content) Explanation: "r" mode means read . with open() automatically closes the file when done. Best Practice: Always use with to handle files to avoid memory leaks. 2. Reading CSV Files ( .csv ) CSV files are widely used for storing tabular data. Python has a built-in csv module and a powerful pandas library. Using cs...

Data Analytics Engineers - Salaries
#Data Analytics Engineers - Salaries and career options:
Some key skills which are very crucial for an employee these days are the ability to communicate disruptive ideas, multi-disciplinary skills with appropriate depth of specialisation, learnability and resilience," said Prithvi Shergill, chief human resources officer, HCL Technologies, the country's fifth-largest technology company.

So, an engineer with 2-3 years' experience working in data analytics can expect a salary of Rs 4-6 lakh in India and $70-80,000 in the US or Europe. 
But without big data skills, the same engineer can earn only Rs 3-5 lakh, according to Anurag Gupta, chief operating officer at Magna Infotech, an IT staffing firm.

  • Experience of 5-6 years in data analytics can help an engineer command a salary of up to Rs 10-12 lakh in the domestic market, according to Kamal Karanth, India MD of staffing firm Kelly Services.
  • Firms like IPsoft, Happiest Minds and Mu Sigma, operating in automation, mobility and analytics solutions as well as cloud-based deployment, are competing in areas that are seeing the fastest growth for the country's IT players. Digital technologies contribute 5-10% of the industry's revenue, according to the National Association for Software and Services Companies.

New York-based IPsoft, which has a facility at Bangalore, pays employees with proficiency in data analytics up to 20% more than what it pays for engineers with proficiency in just coding. The privately-held company has 1,700 employees across 10 offices globally.

"There are fewer than 50,000 machine-learning scientists in the world today who can make sense of big data science," said Arnab Gupta, founder CEO of Opera Solutions, the New Jersey-based predictive analytics firm. Read more.

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...

 Here are five popular SQL queries frequently used in data analysis. 1. SELECT with Aggregations Summarize data by calculating aggregates like counts, sums, averages, etc. SELECT department, COUNT(*) as employee_count, AVG(salary) as average_salary FROM employees GROUP BY department; 2. JOIN Operations  Combine data from multiple tables based on a related column. SELECT e.employee_id, e.name, d.department_name FROM employees e JOIN departments d ON e.department_id = d.department_id; 3. WHERE Clause for Filtering Filter records based on specified conditions. SELECT * FROM sales WHERE sale_date BETWEEN '2024-01-01' AND '2024-12-31'   AND amount > 1000; 4. ORDER BY Clause for Sorting Sort results in ascending or descending order based on one or more columns. SELECT product_name, price FROM products ORDER BY price DESC; 5. GROUP BY with HAVING Clause Group records and apply conditions to the aggregated results. SELECT department, SUM(salary) as total_salaries FROM employ...
