Building a simple data ingestion API using FastAPI. The idea is simple: • Upload a dataset (CSV) • Parse it using pandas • Automatically inspect columns • Return metadata like data types and missing values It’s interesting how quickly useful APIs can be built with FastAPI. Next step: adding querying and simple data exploration endpoints. Learning by building. #Python #FastAPI #BackendDevelopment #DataEngineering #BuildInPublic

In this video, I’ve explained how to create and use APIs using FastAPI in a simple way. I covered: What FastAPI is and how it works How to create an API endpoint How to convert data into an API response How to fetch data from the API using Python How to convert that data into a pandas DataFrame This is a basic concept used in real-world data pipelines and machine learning workflows. #Python #FastAPI #APIs #DataScience

Data analysis often goes wrong before the analysis even begins. The ingestion step: where data is pulled from databases, web sources, and APIs: is where silent errors go undetected. Duplicates, nulls, schema mismatches. Episode 3 of the Practical Learning Series covers the patterns, the validation checklist, and the mistakes to avoid. Because reliable analysis starts with trustworthy data. Swipe through → #DataScience #Python #PracticalLearning #Analytics #DataManagement #DataScienceInstitute

𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐈 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬: 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐬 While exploring a dataset in Python recently, I noticed how often real datasets contain missing values. At first it seems like a small issue, but it can actually affect the entire analysis. Using pandas functions like isnull() and fillna() made it easier to detect and handle those gaps before doing any calculations or visualizations. It made me realize that a big part of data analysis isn’t just analyzing the data — it’s preparing the data properly so the results actually make sense. Still learning, but these small steps are starting to make the workflow clearer. #Python #Pandas #DataAnalytics #DataCleaning

My first ML project is live on GitHub. Built a Random Forest model trained on 1,460 real house sales that predicts sale prices with a Mean Absolute Error of ~$17,000. Used SHAP values to explain which features drive predictions — turns out overall quality and living area matter most. Tech used: Python, pandas, scikit-learn, SHAP https://lnkd.in/gC4DhQbg #DataScience #MachineLearning #Python #Portfolio

Day 1 — Revising Data Science fundamentals Today I revisited Python fundamentals from the very beginning: * Variables & data types * Input/Output * Type casting * Operators (arithmetic, logical, comparison) Applied these concepts by building a basic calculator program Revisiting the basics gave me more clarity than rushing ahead ever could. GitHub: https://lnkd.in/gqJkKJ36 Looking forward to staying consistent and improving every day. #DataScience #Python #LearningInPublic #Consistency

Most people default to Pandas. Works fine… until your data scales. That’s where Polars wins: > Similar syntax for most operations > Faster execution > Lazy evaluation (big performance boost) Don’t ditch Pandas. But ignoring Polars now? That’s a mistake. Learn both. Use what fits. Found Insightful? ♻️ Repost in your network and follow Sahil Alam for more. #DataEngineering #Python #Pandas #Polars #BigData #DataAnalyticsSahil Alam for more.

𝐀 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 While working with a dataset in Python today, I came across something simple but very useful — value_counts() in pandas. Instead of writing multiple filters or loops just to see how frequently different values appear in a column, value_counts() gives a quick frequency breakdown instantly. For example, if you want to see how many records belong to each category, city, or product type, one line can show the entire distribution. It’s a small function, but it makes exploring a new dataset much faster. Slowly realizing that data analysis is really about knowing these small but powerful tools. #Python #Pandas #DataAnalytics #LearningJourney

quick breakdown of what the api is doing behind the scenes: 1. when a csv is uploaded, fastapi receives the file through an /upload endpoint. 2. the file is passed to pandas, which reads it into a dataframe. 3. the api then inspects every column in the dataset and extracts: column name data type number of missing values 4. this metadata is returned as a json response so the frontend or another service can understand the dataset structure instantly.
