CS40741-Big-Data-Analytics-Reports

Welcome to the Lab Problems & Solutions Repository for this course. This repository is designed to help students learn from each other by documenting:

• Issues faced during labs
• Error messages encountered
• Steps taken to solve them
• Final solutions and explanations

By sharing problems and fixes, we build a collaborative knowledge base that benefits everyone now and in future semesters.

Purpose

During lab sessions, many students face similar challenges. Instead of solving them individually and forgetting the solution, this repository allows us to:

• Share debugging strategies
• Understand root causes
• Learn best practices
• Improve problem-solving skills
