11. Statistics
• Traditionally concerned with
analyzing primary (e.g.
Experimental) data collected
for checking specific
hypotheses(ideas)
• Primary data analysis or top-
down(confirmatory) analysis
• Hypothesis evaluation or
testing
Data Science
• Typically concerned with
analyzing secondary (e.g.,
observational) data collected
for other reasons
• Secondary data analysis or
bottom-up(exploratory)
analysis
• Hypothesis generation
• Knowledge discovery

12. Data science is an interdisciplinary field
Encompasses the usage of computing tools in order to extract
knowledge from data by deploying statistical methods
Multiple definitions exist, reason being the nature of
cross-disciplinary skills needed to create value
Holy-grail of data science can be ascertained
through Venn diagrams, e.g., Drew Conway’s
