This repository contains the material (notebooks, data) for the pandas tutorial at EuroScipy 2015.
To follow this tutorial you need to have the following packages installed:
- Python version 2.6-2.7 or 3.3-3.4
pandasversion 0.15.2 or later: http://pandas.pydata.org/numpyversion 1.7 or later: http://www.numpy.org/matplotlibversion 1.3 or later: http://matplotlib.org/ipythonversion 3.x with notebook support, oripython 4.xcombined withjupyter: http://ipython.orgseaborn(this is used for some plotting, but not necessary to follow the tutorial): http://stanford.edu/~mwaskom/software/seaborn/
I recommend to use the conda environment manager to install all the requirements (you can install miniconda or install the (very large) Anaconda software distribution, found at http://continuum.io/downloads).
Once this is installed, the following command will install all required packages in your Python environment:
conda install pandas jupyter seaborn
But of course, using another distribution (e.g. Enthought Canopy) or pip is good as well, as long as you have the above packages installed.
If you have git installed, you can get the material in this tutorial by cloning this repo:
git clone https://github.com/jorisvandenbossche/2015-EuroScipy-pandas-tutorial.git
As an alternative, you can download it as a zip file:
https://github.com/jorisvandenbossche/2015-EuroScipy-pandas-tutorial/archive/master.zip.
I will probably make some changes until the start of the tutorial, so best to download
the latest version then (or do a git pull if you are using git).
Two data files are not included in the repo, you can downloead them from: titles.csv and cast.csv and put them in the /data folder.
