Web Scraping with Python

Imagine you have to pull a large amount of data from websites and you want to do it as quickly as possible. How would you do it without manually going to each website and getting the data? Well, “Web Scraping” is the answer. Web Scraping just makes this job easier and faster. 

In this article on Web Scraping with Python, you will learn about web scraping in brief and see how to extract data from a website with a demonstration. I will be covering the following topics:

Introduction

Pandas is an amazing library in the Python ecosystem for data analytics and machine learning. They form the perfect bridge between the data world, where Excel/CSV files and SQL tables live, and the modeling world where Scikit-learn or TensorFlow perform their magic.

A data science flow is most often a sequence of steps — datasets must be cleaned, scaled, and validated before they can be ready to be used by that powerful machine learning algorithm.

These tasks can, of course, be done with many single-step functions/methods that are offered by packages like Pandas but a more elegant way is to use a pipeline. In almost all cases, a pipeline reduces the chance of error and saves time by automating repetitive tasks.

In the data science world, great examples of packages with pipeline features are — dplyr in R language, and Scikit-learn in the Python ecosystem.

Following is a great article about their use in a machine-learning workflow.

Managing Machine Learning Workflows with Scikit-learn Pipelines Part 1: A Gentle Introduction
Are you familiar with Scikit-learn Pipelines? They are an extremely simple yet very useful tool for managing machine…
 

Pandas also offer a .pipe method which can be used for similar purposes with user-defined functions. However, in this article, we are going to discuss a wonderful little library called pdpipe, which specifically addresses this pipelining issue with Pandas DataFrame.

The Beautiful Hidden Logic of Cities

Padrões identificados em mapas de cidades.

After finishing my map of the most common road suffixes by length, I realized I could also map each individual road, colored by its suffix. This has led to the loveliest maps I’ve made.

Driving around your city, you’re probably somewhat aware of Avenues and Boulevards and Streets and Roads and so on. Here in Portland, at least, I know that Avenues run north-south and Streets run east-west. However, it’s hard to get an overall view of how all these road designations knit together. By coloring them, we can suddenly see a new, stunning view of what we normally take for granted.

Machine Learning and Data Science Cheat Sheet

Pequeno tutorial (com muitos links) sobre linux e machine learning

You can download the new machine learning cheat sheet here (PDF format, 14 pages.) 

Originally published in 2014 and viewed more than 200,000 times, this is the oldest data science cheat sheet – the mother of all the numerous cheat sheets that are so popular nowadays. I decided to update it in June 2019. While the first half, dealing with installing components on your laptop and learning UNIX, regular expressions, and file management hasn’t changed much, the second half, dealing with machine learning, was rewritten entirely from scratch. It is amazing how things have changed in just five years!

Um tutorial sobre os vários usos do * no Python

Many Python users are familiar with using asterisks for multiplication and power operators, but in this tutorial, you’ll find out additional ways on how to apply the asterisk.

Most of us use asterisks as multiplication and power operators, but they also have a wide range of operations being used as a prefix operator in Python. After reading this article, you will get to know the full usage of asterisks.

Asterisks have many particular use cases in Python. In general, we are familiar with the multiplication and power operators. It can perform some other operations like unpacking, arguments passing, etc.., in different situations. First, let’s see the general usage of asterisks.

Making of the Illustrations of the Natural Orders of Plants

If someone told me when I was young that I would spend three months of my time tracing nineteenth century botanical illustrations and enjoy it, I would have scoffed, but that’s what I did to reproduce Elizabeth Twining’s Illustrations of the Natural Orders of Plants and I loved every minute.

After the unexpected successes of my Byrne’s Euclid and Werner’s Nomenclature of Colours projects (for which I’m very grateful) I got the itch to follow them up with another reproduction of an obscure catalog from the 1800s. However, finding interesting obscure catalogs want an easy task when I didn’t know what would pique my interest. Anything was fair game but I had an inkling that something based on the sciences would be most interesting. Scientific catalogs are organized, structured, and data can be extracted from them with some elbow grease.
