This repository contains a Jupyter notebook for the Idiomatic Pandas tutorial. The notebook covers various topics and interactive exercises designed to reinforce your learning. You can run the notebook in a local virtual environment or directly in GitHub Codespaces.

• idiomatic-pandas.ipynb - This notebook
• honest.fth - The data for the tutorial
• requirements.txt - This file lists the Python dependencies required to run the notebook.

Here's how you can set up and run this project:

1. Clone the Repository

   First, clone this repository to your local machine using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/your_username/your_repository.git

2. Create and Activate Virtual Environment

   It is always a good practice to create a virtual environment for your Python projects. Here's how you can do it:

   For Windows:

   python -m venv tutorial_env
   tutorial_env\Scripts\activate

   For macOS/Linux:

   python3 -m venv tutorial_env
   source tutorial_env/bin/activate

3. Install Dependencies

   Once your virtual environment is activated, you can install the necessary dependencies using pip. Navigate to the directory containing requirements.txt file and run:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Launch Jupyter Notebook

   After you have your environment set up and dependencies installed, you can start Jupyter notebook by running:

   jupyter notebook

   Then, in your web browser, navigate to the location of the notebook file and click to open it.

GitHub Codespaces is a service that allows you to develop in the cloud instead of locally. Here's how you can use it for this project:

1. Open the Repository in Codespaces

   Navigate to this repository in GitHub. Click the Code button in the repository header and then select Open with Codespaces.

2. Wait for a while

   To let the codespace start

3. Open the notebook

4. Click on "Select Kernel" -> Python Environments... -> Python 3.10

   You should be good to go.
