Data

Sooner or later in your data science journey, you’ll hit a point where you need to get data from a database. However, making the leap from reading a locally-stored CSV file into pandas to connecting to and querying databases can be a daunting task. In the first of a series of blog posts, we’ll explore how to read data stored in a MySQL database into pandas, and look at some nice PyCharm features that make this task easier. Viewing the database contents In this tutorial, we’re going to read some data about airline delays and cancellations from a MySQL database into a pandas DataFrame.

Easy access to relevant, safe data is a major bottleneck hindering developers and data scientists. But what if you could generate your own accurate, privacy-protected, shareable data?  Synthetic data can provide an inexpensive alternative to real sets of data that can’t be used due to its sensitivity or regulations. Such data is used for training machine learning models, testing, and performing quality assurance.  In this webinar with Mason Egger, we'll learn about using Synthetic Data, and we’ll learn how to get started creating our own Synthetic Data.
