This is exactly the kind of practical guide beginners need instead of another “what is data science” article. The CLEAN framework for data cleaning is something I wish I had known earlier—I used to spend hours trying to make datasets “perfect,” when really, I just needed them to be consistently usable. Christine’s approach of distinguishing what’s actually fixable from what you have to work around would have saved me so much time.
