Python DataScience Handbook

Description:

Python-DataScience-Handbook is a repository that provides the code and resources for the book Python Data Science Handbook. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to the tools and techniques used in data science with Python. The repository includes Jupyter notebooks and Python scripts that correspond to the content in the book, enabling readers to follow along with the examples and exercises presented in the book.

Features:

• Book Content:

  • The repository contains code examples and notebooks from Python Data Science Handbook. It covers various aspects of data science including data manipulation, visualization, machine learning, and statistical analysis using Python.

• Jupyter Notebooks:

  • The primary format for the code is Jupyter notebooks (*.ipynb), which provide an interactive way to explore and execute the code. These notebooks include explanations, visualizations, and code cells that illustrate key concepts.

• Python Scripts:

  • In addition to notebooks, the repository includes Python scripts (*.py) for certain examples and exercises. These scripts can be run independently of Jupyter notebooks.

• Educational Resource:

  • The repository serves as an educational tool for learning data science with Python. It provides practical examples and exercises to help users understand and apply data science concepts.

• Dependencies and Setup:

  • The repository typically includes a requirements.txt file or similar documentation listing the Python packages needed to run the code. This helps users set up their environment to match the requirements of the book.

• Interactive Examples:

  • Many examples in the repository are interactive, allowing users to modify and experiment with the code to better understand the material.

Requirements:

1. Python Version:

   • The code is compatible with Python 3.x. It is recommended to use Python 3.6 or higher to ensure compatibility with modern libraries and features.

2. Dependencies:

   • The repository relies on various Python libraries commonly used in data science, such as:
     • numpy
     • pandas
