Starting Small in Python


In a few days of learning python I learnt the basics and made a script to check the correlation between two columns in a data set. While making it select row or column through user input seems fun and straightforwards, I want to figure out more complex tasks such as box charts and user end file selection.

If you want to see the data set used its here the Connecticut sales records from 2001-2022. I reduced the sample size so it could be uploaded to github as part of the project. That is the main reason why I want to look into file selection, so I can have this and other data sets stored outside of my project folder.

Similarly I’m looking into box charts because they provide a more informative story than ‘ Sale price and year house was listed are apparently only correlated by 20%’

It’s likely that the average sale price will have a much higher correlation and a box plot will show that as well as showing the range of prices which could explain why the correlation is surprisingly low.
