This repository contains py files that analyze two different csv worksheets:
This final products for each analysis are:
- raw data (csv file)
- python script file
- txt file with analysis results (generated when the corresponding py file is run)
The accompanying csv mirrors a company's financial records, stored in a very basic csv worksheet (the dataset is composed of two columns: Date
and Profit/Losses
).
The python script analyzes the worksheet to calculate the following:
- The total number of months included in the dataset
- The net total amount of "Profit/Losses" over the entire period
- The average of the changes in "Profit/Losses" over the entire period
- The greatest increase in profits (date and amount) over the entire period
- The greatest decrease in losses (date and amount) over the entire period
The accompanying csv mirrors polling results from a local election in a small town. The dataset is composed of three columns: Voter ID
, County
, and Candidate
.
The python script analyzes the votes and calculates each of the following:
- The total number of votes cast
- A complete list of candidates who received votes
- The percentage of votes each candidate won
- The total number of votes each candidate won
- The winner of the election based on popular vote.
For both analyses, the final code prints the analysis to the terminal and exports a text file with the results.
