Data scientist living large as all hell. Data Mining Course Notes. December 21, 2014. Getting to code in under a minute with Teamocil. Lately I’ve found that the overhead of configuring my development environment occupies too much of my development time, particularly on side-projects that are already time-starved. Nobody likes to sit down–all stoked to code–and spend the first 15 minutes just getting everything up and running. Lucky for me, my beautiful and talented co-worker. Models as JSON (coming soon!

Data with stories workshop – examples. July 2, 2012. Embedding tableau visualizations on the web. I’m writing this short post because I see that exact phrase come up in the search engine terms of the blog now and again (along with “ Hello this is bathtub. 8221; but I can’t really help there). Here is what I did last time. Iframe style=border: 0px; src=http:/ public.tableausoftware.com/views/champions/champions? Embed=y&:from wg=true scrolling=no width=652px height=756px /iframe.

Making HTML tables in D3 doesn’t need to be a pain | vis4.net
http://vis4.net/blog/posts/making-html-tables-in-d3-doesnt-need-to-be-a-pain
Making HTML tables in D3 doesn’t need to be a pain. Here’s a demo with source code. D3 is nice, but it also makes some simple things look really complicated. One of them is making a simple HTML table. Let’s say you got a simple dataset, stored as array of objects just as you would get from d3.csv:. The Lord of the Rings 3. To render this in a table you would typically start writing some code like this:. What I did a lot was this:. HTML tables in D3, the right way. Helper function from the d3-jetpack.

Start using databases, today! This post is written to welcome dataset. A new library to simplify working with databases in Python. Let’s face it. Relational databases, such as MySQL, SQLite and PostgreSQL, are pretty cool but nobody actually uses them. At least not in the day-to-day work with small to medium scale datasets. But. Why do we see an awful lot of data stored in static files in CSV or JSON format, even though. They are hard to query. You need to write a custom script every time). Rows in a tab...

Playing with CIE Lab Colors in R. Currently I’m taking the wonderful course Computing for Data Analysis. And in this weeks lecture I learned about how to define custom color palettes in R. You can do this using the. Function that comes with the grDevices. Package. Calling this function will return another function that you can call to generate the color palette. To plot the colors. The function takes two arguments:. Is the palette function returned by colorRampPalette and. Forget About Parties,. Playing ...

Forget About Parties,. If I was asked for the. Golden rule of information visualization. Show the most important thing first! Not second or third, but first! And what is the most important thing to show about the outcome of an election? In political systems like Germany’s, where we have no party getting anywhere near 50% of the vote, the usual one-bar-per-party bar charts totally fail to answer this most important question. In Germany there’s no way to take government without forming a coalition. Humans ...

Many Isotype charts contain horizontal rows of symbols. An example is the classic population pyramid. An Isotype version can be seen below:. A common practice is to animate a single pyramid. The question is: How do the symbols behave during the transition of one year to another year? The final prototype visualizes a data set.
