Today data preparation takes maximum time and is one of the biggest challenges faced by many of us. A recent survey by Harvard Business Review claims that people spend 80% of their time shaping and cleaning data while only 20% of their time is spent in data analysis. Converting data to a useful form is time consuming, hectic and requires specialized skills.
