Great data

First of all: If you do not have data you want to work with already. Find some!

Kaggle host competitions in machine learning. For the use of those competitions, they give access to a lot of interesting datasets to work with. With more than 200.000 datasets at time of writing, it can be a bit overwhelming, so consider looking at the “datasets” available as CSV-files.

Great books

Many exists, some are available online, some are even free!

Our favorite is R for Data Science by Hadley Wickham and Garrett Grolemund. The https://r4ds.hadley.nz/ is coming soon. Both editions have a chapter on Exploratory Data Analysis.

Great sites

Most of the larger sites offering online courses in “something-with-data” offers courses that can support your learning in regards to exploratory data analysis:
