8/3/2022	Automate the Boring Stuff in IR with Python In the spirit of the popular book Automate the Boring Stuff with Python (https://automatetheboringstuff.com/), this workshop will give project-based examples of automating tasks from an Office of Institutional Research using Python. The workshop will utilize a few packages from the Python library. Before the workshop, you'll receive a guide on downloading and running Python on your local machine. During the workshop, we'll review projects, including reading data from a pdf table, automating data processing, writing data to an Excel workbook, and sending reports through email. Through participation in this workshop, participants will be able to: - use Python to read data tables from different sources (Excel, CSV, JSON, HTML, and pdf) - clean up tables with common data preprocessing techniques (clean extra spaces, change data types, add features, etc.) - save data tables into an Excel Workbook - setup a Python script to run on an automated schedule Prior experience needed: Knowledge that Python is not referring to a snake or comedy troupe.
