| | |
| ===Download the Baby Names project===
| |
| | |
| You'll be playing with data from the list of all baby names in the US (used more than five times in a year) from the last several years:
| |
| | |
| # Right click the following file, click "Save Target as..." or "Save link as...", and save it to your Desktop directory: http://mako.cc/teaching/2015/cdsw-autumn/babynames.zip
| |
| # The ".zip" extension on the above file indicates that it is a compressed Zip archive. We need to "extract" its contents. To do this, click on "Start", then "Computer", and navigate to your Desktop directory. Find babynames.zip on your Desktop and double-click on it to "unzip" it. That will create a folder called babynames containing several files.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===Test the Baby Names code===
| |
| | |
| Start jupyter notebook and navigate to the Desktop\babynames directory where the Baby Names code lives. Open <code> BabyNames.ipynb</code>. Run the first two cells that read:
| |
| | |
| import ssadata
| |
| for name in ssadata.boys.keys():
| |
| if name == "mako":
| |
| print("There were " + str(ssadata.boys[name]) + " boys named " + name)
| |
| | |
| You should get the output
| |
| | |
| <code>There were 10 boys named mako </code>
| |
| | |
| If this doesn't work let a mentor know.
| |
| | |
| ===Success!===
| |
| | |
| You've completed setup for the Baby Names project.
| |
| | |
| ==State Capitals==
| |
| | |
| We'll look at an example Python script that quizzes you on state capitals during the lecture on Saturday.
| |
| | |
| # Right click the following file, click "Save Target as..." or "Save link as...", and save it to your Desktop directory: https://communitydata.science/~mako/State_Capitals.ipynb
| |
| | |
| ==Success!==
| |
| | |
| You are done downloading the Saturday projects.
