prescriptive analytics
What is the difference between exploratory and
confirmatory data analytics projects?
- Exploratory projects involve testing hypotheses and
finding patterns in data, while confirmatory projects
involve verifying existing hypotheses.

already structured, while confirmatory projects involve
analyzing unstructured data.
,- Exploratory projects involve analyzing large datasets,
while confirmatory projects involve analyzing smaller
datasets.

single source, while confirmatory projects involve
integrating data from multiple sources.
ANSWER-Exploratory projects involve testing
hypotheses and finding patterns in data, while
confirmatory projects involve verifying existing
hypotheses.
