2013-04-03 12:20:29	Alex Sadleir	45	## The basics of being a data scientist
		46
		47	* Have a hypothesis � even if you’re making a tool/api that helps people with their questions too, remember what the objective of that is.
2013-03-01 01:11:15	Maxious	48	* Find the people and tools you need to prove/show/find. This rest of this page will help with the latter.
		49	* Analyse and present results � were they what you expected? Do they help explain to others what you have found out? Can present as a interactive data visualisation or a web/mobile application or just a infographic/motion graphics video that tells a story.
		50	Please note, there are a combination of Analysis and Visualisation tools in each of the major categories below.
