bookData Consistency Techniques

Data consistency is a key aspect of data cleaning, directly affecting the reliability and accuracy of your analysis. Common consistency issues include inconsistent categories, such as variations in spelling or capitalization within a column that should contain uniform values; mixed data types, where a single column contains both strings and numbers, making calculations or grouping unreliable; and formatting errors, such as inconsistent date formats or misplaced whitespace. These problems can lead to misleading results or errors in downstream analysis if not properly addressed.
