Automated Report Generation

Overview

The Automated Report Generation project is a Python-based solution that reads data from a file, analyzes it, and generates a well-structured PDF report. This project demonstrates data processing, analysis, and report automation using Python libraries such as pandas and ReportLab.

Features

• Data Reading: Reads structured data from a CSV file.
• Data Analysis: Extracts key insights, including summary statistics.
• PDF Report Generation: Formats the data analysis into a structured PDF.
• Automated Workflow: Runs as a single script to process and generate reports.

How It Works

1. Read Data: The script reads data from a CSV file.
2. Analyze Data: It extracts key insights such as total entries, column names, and sample data.
3. Generate PDF: The report is formatted and saved as a PDF file in the reports/ directory.
