If you have been working on Tableau lately. This resource will be helpful to you.
Would have attached the Tableau file but the limit here is 200k. So follow the link here
https://www.tableau.com/covid-19-coronavirus-data-resources

I find the link very useful for newbies or expert on Tableau

Uhmmm, is love to know which variants that is. I’m genuinely curious. I use PL/SQL (Oracle) for work and while I can use loops and structures in my oracle queries, it’s an appendage an appendage to the original SQL.

The types of compiling I can do with programming languages like C#, C++ or even python, I can’t do with SQL
Of course, no variant of SQL will give you C++ or python functionalities. But PL/SQL or TSQL are some of those that go beyond the typical query features of standard SQL. Many of these you can employ in writing normal procedural programs.

For newbies wanting to get a degree in computer science. I believe this link below is helpful. It’s a tuition free online university based in United States. I implore enthusiast wanting to get a foreign degree should apply.

PS: I’m not their advocate. In fact 2 of my dear friends just got admitted. Once applying you will be asked to make $65 applications fee. If you don’t have be sincere and tell them you don’t have.

Meanwhile google the school and do your research before going ahead with it.

Also you need internet and Laptop as a requirement too.

Please oh, gurus in the house. I am stuck with that covid data challenge.

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

covid = pd.read_csv('c:\\users\\bola\\desktop\\covid19-april-4.csv')
covid

filter_for_cases_greaterthan_5k = covid.TotalCases > 5000
covid[filter_for_cases_greaterthan_5k]

question
How can I plot the variable filter_for_cases_greaterthan_5k against in the countries. I have tried severally, learned a lot about data cleaning in the process but I think it's just my syntax that is wrong.

I can find my way around seaborn, I can filter the data (as seen in the screenshot). I don't know how to plot the data. I am desperate to complete my first data science challenge. I don tey for this python thing small.

@ejiod, ibromodzi, mcemmy0z:

For a simple barplot, you can try this


# I'll like to take it from scratch so that others can learn
#import the necessary libraries i.e matplotlib, pandas etc..
import pandas
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# read your data using pandas and let's save it in covid dataframe
#filtering your data
cases_greater>5k = covid.loc[covid['Totalcases'] > 5000]

#Plotting.... I think this is what you need
#set your x and y axes or you can just use a line of code in your plot but let's try to break it down
x = cases_greater>5k['Countries']
y = cases_greater>5k['Totalcases']
plt.bar(x, y) # you can format your plot anyhow
plt.xticks(rotation = 90)
plt.show()

Use groupby then cast your country column.
After that save it as a variable and plot it.

Nobody knows all of python cos it's like an ocean with huge libraries you only have to know the basics and learn the libraries that is specific data analysis tasks.
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by lymelyte(m): 5:18pm On Apr 07, 2020
oh i see.. i taught one was expected to learn everything from bottom to top.. can one learn the use of libraries without having any knowledge of python?

Just learn the basics of python but focus more on functions, you will need that on a long run if you ever needed a shortcut, but most of the tutorials on data analysis always touch the area of python basic you need in their first videos.

No!
You cannot build a house without foundation else it will collapse. While working with Python you'll encounter many cases which requires pre-existing knowledge of Python basics.

Take a complete tutorial of Python basics which is freely available on YouTube thereafter learn the libraries for data analysis.
