What was your win this week?

What was your win for the week? (It can be coding related or not!) :computer:

  • Did you finally figure out a solution to a problem?

  • Did you extend your coding streak?

  • Did you learn a new language?

Excited to read about everyone’s win! :partying_face:

I’m not sure if it’s a win or not…but, I’m trying to continue to practice my python skills (pandas, and visualization).
I have some American Community Survey data from the Census for NY (it’s 2017 five-year estimates) in csv format and I loaded the file into Colab and started doing EDA. I should actually get the 2014-2018 5 yr estimates (which was released in Dec. 2019). I was/am looking at income numbers for all 62 counties in NY state.

I realized that I should have cleaned up the column names (b/c while they’re descriptive, they’re really lengthy!) in Excel prior to saving the file as a csv. I find it’s easier to do in Excel.
