Getting Started With Excel - Titanic: Machine Learning from Disaster

For those who are not experienced with handling large data sets, logging into the Kaggle website for the first time may be slightly daunting. Many of these competitions have a six figure prize and data which can, at times, be extremely involved. Here at Kaggle, we understand that this may seem like an insurmountable barrier to entry, so we have created a "getting started" competition to guide you through the initial steps required to get your first decent submission on the board. The competition is simple: we want you to use the Titanic passenger data (name, age, gender, socio-economic class, etc) to try to predict who will survive and who will die. The first thing to do is get the data from the Kaggle website.
