Alright, let me tell you about my little wrestling-inspired project with “Santos Escobar.”
First off, I was just messing around, trying to find a cool name for a project, and “Santos Escobar” popped into my head. No real reason, just liked the sound of it, you know? Sounded kinda tough, kinda classy.
So, I started by setting up a basic project directory. I made a folder called “santos_escobar” on my desktop. Inside, I created a few subfolders: “data,” “scripts,” and “docs.” Just the standard stuff.
Next up, I started sketching out what I wanted to do. I was thinking of a simple data analysis project, nothing too crazy. I grabbed some dummy data from Kaggle, some CSV files about… I dunno, let’s say car sales. Threw them into the “data” folder.
Then, I fired up my code editor. I use VS Code, it’s pretty chill. Created a new Python file in the “scripts” folder, called it “*.” I imported pandas to wrangle the data. Started reading in those CSVs.
python
import pandas as pd
# Read the CSV files
try:
sales_data = *_csv(“data/car_*”)
print(“Data loaded successfully!”)
except FileNotFoundError:
print(“Error: car_* not found.”)
Nothing fancy, just trying to get the data into a DataFrame. After that, I started doing some basic cleaning. Checked for missing values, you know, the usual.
python
# Check for missing values
print(sales_*().sum())
Saw a bunch of `NaN`s. So I filled them with zeros. It’s a quick and dirty fix, I know, but hey, it’s a personal project.
python
# Fill missing values with 0
sales_*(0, inplace=True)
Then I moved on to some basic analysis. I wanted to see which car brands were selling the most. Grouped by brand and calculated the sum of sales.
python
# Group by brand and sum the sales
brand_sales = sales_*(“Brand”)[“Sales”].sum()
print(brand_sales)
Printed that out. Looked at the results. Nothing earth-shattering, but it was something.
I also tried to visualize the data using matplotlib. Just a simple bar chart, nothing pretty.
python
import * as plt
# Create a bar chart of sales by brand
brand_*(kind=”bar”)
*(“Car Sales by Brand”)
*(“Brand”)
*(“Sales”)
Saved the chart as a PNG in the “docs” folder. Just so I could show it off, maybe.
Finally, I added a simple `*` file in the main folder. Just explained what the project was (basically a toy project), what the data was, and what I did with it.
Honestly, it wasn’t anything groundbreaking, but it was a fun little exercise. Gave me a reason to use pandas and matplotlib again.
Created a project directory.
Got some dummy data.
Wrote a Python script to clean and analyze the data.
Visualized the data with matplotlib.
Documented everything in a `*`.
All in all, “Santos Escobar” helped me kill a few hours and practice my data skills. Maybe I’ll add more to it later, who knows? For now, it’s just a cool-named folder on my desktop.
