Community Data Science Workshops (Core)/Review Wk1 Wk2

This afternoon session will review materials from Week 1 and Week 2. If we have time, we'll even do some data visualization as well!

For this session, we'll go back to babynames.

= Review with a babyname example =

We want to demonstrate how what we've learned in this workshop come together:


 * 1) Ask a question (e.g. How did the popularity of the name "Sam" change between 2007 and 2016? By gender?)
 * 2) Find a dataset.(e.g. Open Data)
 * 3) Use API/Python to get the data/find an answer for my question.
 * Read the API documentation
 * Run the simplest code (perhaps an example code from the website) to understand how API works
 * Think about how to request the data you need (e.g. How do I just get a list of names that contain "Sam"?)
 * Try your code! Errors are ok!


 * 1) (Visualize; if we have time)
