INTRODUCTION
Data analysis defines as a process to evaluate information by using statistical or
numerical tools for discovering new data for upcoming periods. It includes programming
languages, central tendencies and more, to identify the particular pattern and apply same to
predict future information (Altay and Alatas, 2019). To analyse importance and concept of data
analysis for numerically presented data, a study is conducted by taking a record of phone calls
making each day within last ten consecutive days. Arranging this information in tabular format,
statistical tools will be applied to predict number of calls make on day 12 and 14 in same month.
Main Body
