# Data Science: Methods, Tools, and Best Practices Status: public Confidence: low (0.84) (verified) Last verified: 2026-05-28 Generation: ai_structured ## TL;DR Data science fundamentals combine data organization, statistical learning tools, and reproducible analysis. This repair narrows the article to source-mapped methods claims. ## Core Explanation The previous entry had weak coverage and generic sources. The repaired version uses tidy data, scikit-learn, and NIST big-data material. ## Further Reading - [Tidy Data](https://doi.org/10.18637/jss.v059.i10) - [Scikit-learn: Machine Learning in Python](https://www.jmlr.org/papers/v12/pedregosa11a.html) - [NIST Big Data Interoperability Framework: Volume 1, Definitions](https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.SP.1500-1r2)
