Project Title: COVID-19 using Cognos.

Phase:1
Project Definition and Design Thinking

Problem statement:
Analyzing covid-19 cases and deaths data using IBM
cognos, with a focus on comparing mean values and standard
deviations for cases and deaths per day, categorized by country
in the EU/EEA (European Union /European Economic Area).
Objective:
Comparing and contrasting mean values and standard
deviations of covid-19 cases and associated deaths.
Data source:
Data file containing COVID-19 cases and deaths
information per day and by country in the EU/EEA is obtained
from Kaggle.
Dataset link: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/chakradharmattapalli/covid-19-cases
Tools:
IBM cognos (for visualization).
Design thinking == problem-solving approach

step 1:
Comparing mean values of cases and deaths.
Contrasting standard deviations of cases and deaths.
step 2:
Visualization:
chart: line charts or bar charts for time series data
box plots or error bars for standard deviations.
target variable: daily cases and deaths per country (for the given
dataset)
step 3:
Interpretation:
Analyzing the charts: Look for trends, variations, anomalies.
Comparing different countries or time periods (ex: higher
standard deviation == increased in no. of cases)
