Stock_Analyzer_R_PyScript



This repository contains scripts for analyzing stock prices using both R and Python. The scripts allow users to fetch stock data, visualize it using charts, and customize the analysis based on their requirements. The repository includes the following files:
  • stock_analyzer.R: R script for analyzing stock prices. It retrieves stock data from Yahoo Finance, filters it based on user-defined date range, and plots the prices using ggplot2.
  • stock_analyzer.py: Python script that modifies the stock_analyzer.R script and executes it using RStudio. It provides a user interface to input stock symbols, date ranges, and scale options for the plot.
  • stock_analyzer.exe: Executable file generated from the stock_analyzer.py script for easy execution on Windows operating system.

Usage

  1. Clone the repository to your local machine using the following command:

    git clone https://github.com/your-username/Stock_Analyzer_R_PyScript.git

  2. Make sure you have the required dependencies and libraries installed for both R and Python. Refer to the individual script files for the list of required libraries.

  3. Run the stock_analyzer.R script directly in an R environment to analyze stock prices. Modify the symbol, start_date, and end_date variables according to your desired stock and date range.

  4. To use the Python script (stock_analyzer.py) for executing the R script with a user interface, follow these steps:

    • Ensure that R and RStudio are installed on your system.
    • Place your original R script file ("stock_analyzer.R") in the same folder as the Python script.
    • Execute the stock_analyzer.py script using Python. It will prompt you to input the stock symbol, date range, and scale options for the plot.
    • The script will modify the R script file with the provided inputs, execute it using RStudio, and open the resulting plot.

  5. If you prefer using the executable file (stock_analyzer.exe), simply double-click on it to launch the program. The executable file eliminates the need for installing dependencies and running the script from the command line.

Sample Output

Here is an example of a line graph generated by executing the stock_analyzer.R script:
