Old School - Functional Data Analysis
This talk will use core functionality from the
PyToolz
projects. Students will leave both with a set of concrete tools and with an understanding of some of the more applicable lessons from the functional style.
The tutorial video is now available on Vimeo.
- Python > 2.6
- Toolz -
pip install toolz
The following links will open the tutorial notebooks in IPython's online notebook viewer:
Data for most of the notebooks resides in the data
directory
The human genome data can be found here
The Github data can be found here
After the talk Jake Vanderplas showed me that indeed numpy
does support
accumulation on any binary operator. Try the following in ipython
for a
list of supported binops
import numpy
numpy.*.accumulate?
