This is a web site on some Data Science topics.
My focus in 2024 shifted back to time series.
It includes still some content that I taught during an academic course on ‘Data science in Python’ leading to a bachelor degree.
Time series
I had started using the library Altair. Currently, I am using Plotly only.

Setup and Coding
Okay, let’s get started with the Setup 2024 for Pandas and Plotly on Ubuntu
Mostly, I use Python, Pandas and Plotly here.

Some results
First Names
Let’s start with a data set that is straightforward to consume and to visualize.
The statistics department in Scotland has a great website from which a lot of interesting data can be downloaded, e.g. Birth names
How does my first name compare to the currently most popular male first name?
Well, my first name has some potential for growth. However, considering the increasing diversity of names and hence the lower maximum values for the top names, the difference to the top names is getting smaller.
More on the technical part of this analysis and more on first names can be found here: Pandas - Analysis first names
Julia
There is no update on the Julia content since about 2021. If you need the content on Julia, please copy it. I will remove at least the links from the landing page soon.
