Package: datexplore
datexploreDatexplore is a Python package meticulously crafted for the dynamic data scientist looking for a one-stop solution for exploratory data analysis and data visualisation. Datexplore is committed to transforming your data journey into an insightful and enjoyable experience through several easy-to-use functions. It is particularly useful for those who wish to automate the tedious bits of the EDA process, while still having control over their data.Documentation:ReadTheDocs👥 ContributorsJordan Cairns, Sid Grover, Scout McKee⚙️ InstallationThe following code should be ran to install the package:pipinstalldatexplore📖 OutlineDatexplore is a python package for the early stages of a data analysis project. It contains tools helpful for exploratory data analysis and data cleaning. The aim of this package is to help with some common tasks involved in these early stages of projects. The package includes tools for common EDA visualizations, data cleaning procedures, and detecting outlier numerical data.Package functions:clean_names: This function makes all column names in a dataframe such that the names only use letters, numbers, and underscores. The capitalization format is specified using an optional parameter.detect_outliers: This function reports on the outliers in the numerical columns of a pandas DataFrame. The function returns a new DataFrame with information about each outlier, including its original index, the outlier value, and the extent of its deviation.visualise: This function generates visualizations for a pandas DataFrame to identify patterns in missing values, correlation between variables, and distribution of variables and variable pairs.Python Ecosystem ContextDatexplore complements well-known Python libraries like Pandas and Scikit-learn. These widely-used libraries offer a broad range of tools for handling all types of data and creating visualizations. Datexplore, on the other hand, provides specific functions tailored for aiding exploratory data analysis (EDA) and data cleaning. The focus on simplicity and ease of use differentiates it from these well-known python libraries. The functions in datexplore are intended to enhance user experience and efficiency in the EDA step of a data analysis pipeline.The visualization function is inspired by autoviz
(https://pypi.org/project/autoviz/0.0.6/), yet it's more customizable and fits smoothly into different data analysis workflows.The clean_names function resembles pyjanitor’s approach
(https://pyjanitor-devs.github.io/pyjanitor/), but we've tweaked it to be more aligned with the needs of EDA, making it straightforward to use while performing EDA.The detect_outliers function takes an approach, similar to methods found in libraries like SciPy and Scikit-learn, but combines them in a single function. While these libraries provide comprehensive tools for statistical analysis, including outlier detection, Datexplore's outlier function allows all the data to be viewed within a single dataframe and a single function call, making the process simpler.🔗 DependenciesPython 3 or greaterMatplotlib.pyplotSeabornpandas📊 UsageExample usage:>>>fromdatexplore.clean_namesimportclean_names>>>importpandasaspd>>>importseabornassns>>>importmatplotlib.pyplotasplt>>>data=pd.DataFrame{'Even Numbers':[2,4,6,8],'odd numbers':[1,3,5,7]}>>>clean_data=clean_names(data)#returns data with clean names>>>visualise(clean_data,display=False)# displays (up to) 3 plots>>>detect_outliers(clean_data)# returns index, deviation and category of outliers🤝 ContributingInterested in contributing?
