Summary

In this chapter, we got to experience the essential role of effective data preprocessing in enabling us to perform meaningful clustering analytics. Furthermore, we got to practice different kinds and types of data cleaning, data reduction, data integration, and data transformation situations.

This was the last case study that we have in this book. The next and final chapter will provide some directions for more learning and some practice case studies.
