Exorcising Your Haunted Data with Python

Exorcising Your Haunted Data with Python

We are all often haunted with paranormal data. “Para” (παρά) Greek meaning next to or near, and “normal” something our data rarely is. During these cursed times we may feel we have need for an exorcist, to help us clean our data in order for our second sight to show unto us that which we seek to see.

In this Halloween themed Python data processing workshop, we will look at data that has need of some supernatural investigation to banish the demons hidden in data and purge the darkness so it can step into the light and show its transformed and true nature.

Feel free to join us live or via Zoom. You may even wear your potato sheet costume and I promise I won’t fill your sack with rocks--just some cool data treats!

Who is this workshop for: Anyone one that desires to learn tricks to process and raise new data from it’s dead rotting corpse.

What will you walk away with: We will be using Python to grave rob data and then cast some bewitched Pandas spells mixed with a dash of Plotly to divine its new nature. No bloodletting needed!

Prerequisites: This will be a hands-on workshop using Python. Only a basic understanding of Python is required but the spirits will show unto us some more advanced techniques which anyone can easily float into. We will use Jupyter Lab Notebooks so please have some version of Python installed and make sure you can run Jupyter Notebooks or better yet Jupyter Lab. If you have questions on this, no need for Ouija Boards or seances. Please just come see me during any of our CRDDS Consult Hours. (https://www.colorado.edu/crdds/events#drop_in_consultations-89)
