INTRODUCTION
Data analysis is a retrieval and data gathering tool for us to obtain useful information. In
other terms, the analysis of data is essentially intended to analyze what data relies on perception,
whatever other data it tries to inform (Coben, Miller-Reilly, Satherley and Earle, 2016). The
report mostly deals with data collection, in which data is related to the sleeping hours on
different days. As per the project study, significant calculation areas are also carried out, such as
mean, mode, medium and forecasting.

2. Presentation of the data using any two types of charts.
Column chart- A column diagram is a visual picture in which each section reflects the
row height, relative to the values displayed (Bokhari, Rashid and Chan, 2016). Column
screens are generally recognized as vertical bar tables.
