## <h3>Dataset Overview 📊</h3>

|Column      | Description                         |
|------------|-------------------------------------|

|**Replica** | The line of dialogue spoken.        |       
|**EP_ID**   | The episode ID of the transcript.   |

## <h3>System Replicas🔍</h3>
The system replicas describe the actions and events that occur in each episode. These replicas are written in a specific format, using brackets to indicate actions and events.

**<h5>Replica Format</h5>**

`{system} : [The episode opens with a bubble transition, and we see a coral reef under the sea. The camera zooms to initiate parallax scrolling, which reveals the city of Bikini Bottom. It continues zooming to show a brown rock, a Moai head, and a pineapple, which each contain inhabitants.]`

## <h3>Sample Data 💬</h3>

|Speaker	    |Replica	                                                                                                                                       |EP_ID  |

## <h3>📊 Interactions with Dataset</h3>

**<h5>Using Pandas to filter rows</h5>**

1. To find all rows with a specific ep_id, you can use the following code:

```
import pandas as pd
#Read the CSV file into a Pandas DataFrame
df = pd.read_csv('dataset.csv')
#Define the ep_id you want to filter by
ep_id = 's1e2'
#Filter the DataFrame to get rows with an ep_id that starts with the defined ep_id
filtered_df = df[df['ep_id'].str.startswith(ep_id)]
#Print the filtered DataFrame
print(filtered_df)
```

2. To find rows where a specific character says a specific word or phrase, you can use the following code:

```
#Filter the DataFrame to get rows where a specific character says a specific word or phrase
speaker = 'SpongeBob'
word_or_phrase = 'jellyfish'
filtered_df = df[df['speaker'] == speaker]
filtered_df = filtered_df[filtered_df['replica'].str.contains(word_or_phrase)]
#Print the filtered DataFrame
print(filtered_df)
```

You can replace `SpongeBob` and `jellyfish` with any other speaker and word/phrase that you want to filter by.
