Application of C in Data Analytics

Abstract

Data Analytics is a recent buzz word which is creating new sensation in the market. Traditionally it is the technique to analyze and represent data in a visual format which helps human to understand the story that collectively data has to say. Most of the cases the analysis of data is done using tools like Tableau and Qlik and with less coding. Whereas the coding based data analytics is done using Python and R. This paper is an initiative to improve research at UG level in engineering colleges. It is a outcome of a mini project where a professor and 4 of his B.Tech. students has tried to put some light on the concept of Application of C in Data Analytics. As the basic learner of coding and other computer techniques when this students are miles away from using high level programming languages like Python. As at second year level as they are comfortable with C programming languages, this paper made an attempt to find whether C can be used for Data Analytics or not. After a thorough study of the subject it is found that a combination of C, files and C graphics will help to take the work in next level. Also it uses infographics and comes out with a significant outcome which says that even C can be used for Data Analysis and representation. This paper is a initiative to inculcate the culture of research in UG level.
