bookChallenge: Analyze Weekly Sales Data

As an operations manager, you have learned how to use pandas to organize and analyze your operational data, and matplotlib to visualize key metrics for better decision making. In this challenge, you will apply these skills to a typical scenario: analyzing a week's worth of sales data to extract actionable insights. By leveraging pandas for data aggregation and matplotlib for visualization, you can quickly summarize performance, identify top-selling products, and communicate findings clearly to your team.

import pandas as pd # Example DataFrame for a week's sales data = { 'day': ['Mon', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sat', 'Sun', 'Sun'], 'item': ['Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget', 'Widget', 'Gadget'], 'units_sold': [10, 5, 12, 8, 7, 6, 15, 9, 14, 7, 13, 8, 11, 6], 'revenue': [100, 75, 120, 120, 70, 90, 150, 135, 140, 105, 130, 120, 110, 90] } df = pd.DataFrame(data) # Example summary calculations total_revenue = df['revenue'].sum() best_selling_item = df.groupby('item')['units_sold'].sum().idxmax() print(f"Weekly Sales Summary") print(f"---------------------") print(f"Total Revenue: ${total_revenue}") print(f"Best-Selling Item: {best_selling_item}")

When working with sales data for operational decisions, it is important to aggregate key metrics such as total revenue and units sold by item. Using pandas, you can easily group and sum data to pinpoint top performers. Visualizations like bar charts created with matplotlib make it easier to spot trends and communicate results to stakeholders. Always ensure your summary reports are clear, concise, and tailored to the needs of your audience.

Завдання
