The best way to avoid skewness in data to show a log transform with intent. Log transform is the easy way to increase the the normality of distribution. Log transformation is most likely the first thing that remove skewness from the data.

- Box-Cox Transform.
The best way to fix it is to perform a log transform of the same data, with the intent to reduce the skewness. After taking logarithm of the same data the curve seems to be normally distributed, although not perfectly normal, this is sufficient to fix the issues from a skewed dataset as we saw before.
Too many extreme values in a data set will result in a skewed distribution. Normality of data can be achieved by cleaning the data. This involves determining measurement errors, data-entry errors and outliers, and removing them from the data for valid reasons.

long transform:it can be easily done by calling the log ( ) function on the desired column .
Square root transform: due to taking the square root the range of the variable will be smaller.
Box cox transform : it is another way of handling skewed data .Data must be positive
it is just another way of handling skewed data .your data

Top 3 methods of handling skewed data or avoid skewness in a data:
1:- Log Transform: log transform is most likely the first thing you should do to remove skewness from the predictor. It can easily done via Numpy, just by calling the log( ) function on the desired column. By this method you can easily check for skew.
2:-Square root Transform: The square root sometimes is not the best suitable option. In this case, I still expect the transformed distribution to look somewhat exponential, but just due to taking a square root the range of variable will be smaller.
You can apply a square root transformation via Numpy, by calling the sqrt( ).
3:- Box-Cox Transform: it is the another way of handling skwed data. To use it, your data must be positive so that can be bummer sometimes.

18-302 the Way to avoid is to perform a log transform of same data. By performing logarithm to reduce or avoid skewness the data curve seem to be more normal distibuted although not perfectly but the skewness can br avoid or reduce by this method.

When the data are skewed to the right the measure of Skewness will be?
When the data are skewed to the right the measure of skewness will be positive.
What is the values of the skewdness and kurtosis coefficient for the normal distribution 0 and 3 respectively?
No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.
Notes about Bowel's coefficient of skewness and Kelly's coefficient of skewness?

What is Pearson's first rule of the measure of coefficient of skewness?

Can you compare and contrast the skewness and normal curve?
Answer this question...similarities and differences between normal curve and skewness
When the data are skewed to the right the measure of Skewness will be?
When the data are skewed to the right the measure of skewness will be positive.
Would you consider two data sets similar or different if they have the same mean median and range but one is positively skewed and other negatively skewed?
If the skewness is different, then the data sets are different.Incidentally, there is one [largely obsolete] definition of skewness which is in terms of the mean and median. Under that definition, it would be impossible for two data sets to have equal means and equal medians but opposite skewness.
What is the definition for skew in math terms?
The skewness of a random variable X is the third standardised moment of the distribution. If the mean of the distribution is m and the standard deviation is s, then the skewness, g1 = E[{(X - m)/s}3] where E is the expected value. Skewness is a measure of the degree to which data tend to be on one side of the mean or the other. A skewness of zero indicates symmetry. Positive skewness indicates there are more values that are below the mean but the the ones that are above the mean, although fewer, are substantially bigger. Negative skewness is defined analogously.
What does a box and whisker plot show about the data?
It is marked by the minimum, and maximum, the median, as well as the lower and upper quartiles. It also shows the skewness of the data.
The use of Pearson Coefficient of Skewness?

How do you solve ungrouped data?
You cannot "solve" ungrouped data since ungrouped data is not a question. You can calculate the mean or the variance, standard deviation or skewness, or a whole range of other measures for ungrouped data. But you have not specified what.
If coefficient of skewness equals 0 then what would you say about the skewness of the distribution?
if coefficient of skewness is zero then distribution is symmetric or zero skewed.
What is the difference between Dispersion and Skewness?
distinguish between dispersion and skewness
What is skewness how would you find it in a non symmetrical distribution?
Skewness is a measure of the asymmetry in a distribution. In a non-symmetrical distribution, skewness can be calculated using a formula that considers the deviation of each data point from the mean. A positive skewness indicates a longer tail on the right side of the distribution, while a negative skewness indicates a longer tail on the left side.
What is the between skewness and kurtosis?
While skewness is the measure of symmetry, or if one would like to be more precise, the lack of symmetry, kurtosis is a measure of data that is either peaked or flat relative to a normal distribution of a data set. * Skewness: A distribution is symmetric if both the left and right sides are the same relative to the center point. * Kurtosis: A data set that tends to have a distant peak near the mean value, have heavy tails, or decline rapidly is a measure of high kurtosis. Data sets with low Kurtosis would obviously be opposite with a flat mean at the top, and a distribution that is uniform.
What is the values of the skewdness and kurtosis coefficient for the normal distribution 0 and 3 respectively?
No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.No. Skewness is 0, but kurtosis is -3, not 3.
Define skewness and kurtosis?
Skewness is a measure of symmetry, or more precisely, the lack of symmetry. A distribution, or data set, is symmetric if it looks the same to the left and right of the center point. Kurtosis is a measure of whether the data are peaked or flat relative to a normal distribution. See related link. By doing a search on the internet, you can find more examples.
