Do data analysts need to be good at math?

Question

Can anyone tell me how much math data analysts need to know?

Answer 1

The short answer is yes. Data Analysts need to be good at math for:

• Choosing the right preparation of data for computation, transform data better, and choose the right methods.
• Understanding what means what (Example: mean vs median), interpreting results, testing significance, etc.
• Interpretation from the graphical illustrations made on data.
