Product/deliverable - creation of a Jupyter notebook that contains your analysis of the housing rental market data for San Francisco. The analysis will be complete with professionally styled and formatted interactive visualizations.

Part 1: import, clean, and analyze data

Part 2: develop visualization tools to analyze the data

Beyond the scope of the assignment, the author sought to conduct additional refinement and/or analysis of the data obtained and demonstrate further visualization.... Supplemental and/or extra analysis beyond the scope of the project is noted as 'supplemental' were approrpiate.

Dependencies

This project leverages Jupyter Lab v3.4.4 and python v3.7 with the following packages:

  • pandas - Software library written for the python programming language for data manipulation and analysis.

  • read_csv - From 'pandas', reads a comma-separated values (csv) file into DataFrame.

  • concat - From 'pandas', concatenate pandas objects along a particular axis, allows optional set logic along the other axes.

  • numpy - Software library, NumPy is the fundamental package for scientific computing in Python, provides vast functionality.

  • Path - From pathlib - Object-oriented filesystem paths, Path instantiates a concrete path for the platform the code is running on.

  • hvplot - provides a high-level plotting API built on HoloViews that provides a general and consistent API for plotting data into numerous formats listed within linked documentation.
