Foreword
I am neither the owner of a famous publishing company nor am a top IT company with hundreds of in-
house developers to create anything I wanted to with a great ease.
I am an independent Software developer with passion towards what I do and trust me, a lot of time, efforts
were put into creating this extensive collection of questions and answers at a single place.
If it helps at least a few in their careers to achieve their dream jobs, I will be more than happy.
Thank You.

Question 1. What Is A Recommender System?
Answer:
A recommender system is today widely deployed in multiple fields like movie
recommendations, music preferences, social tags, research articles, search
queries and so on. The recommender systems work as per collaborative and
content-based filte
ring or by deploying a personality-based approach. This type of system works
based on a person’s past behavior in order to build a model for the future. This
will predict the future product buying, movie viewing or book reading by
people. It also creates a filtering approach using the discrete characteristics of
items while recommending additional items.
Question 2. Compare Sas, R And Python Programming?
Answer:
SAS: it is one of the most widely used analytics tools used by some of the
biggest companies on earth. It has some of the best statistical functions,
graphical user interface, but can come with a price tag and hence it cannot be
readily adopted by smaller enterprises
R: The best part about R is that it is an Open Source tool and hence used
generously by academia and the research community. It is a robust tool for
statistical computation, graphical representation and reporting. Due to its open
source nature it is always being updated with the latest features and then
readily available to everybody.
Python: Python is a powerful open source programming language that is easy
to learn, works well with most other tools and technologies. The best part
about Python is that it has innumerable libraries and community created
modules making it very robust. It has functions for statistical operation, model
building and more.
Question 3. Explain The Various Benefits Of R Language?
Answer:
The R programming language includes a set of software suite that is used for
graphical representation, statistical computing, data manipulation and
calculation.
Some of the highlights of R programming environment include the
following:
An extensive collection of tools for data analysis
Operators for performing calculations on matrix and array
Data analysis technique for graphical representation
