Python pandas in Jupyter

One of the most widely used features of Python is pandas. It is a third-party library of data analysis packages that can be used freely. In this example, we will develop a Python script that uses pandas to see if there is any effect to using it in Jupyter.

I am using the Titanic dataset from http://www.kaggle.com/c/titanic-gettingStarted/download/train.csv. I am sure the same data is available from a variety of sources.

Here is the Python script that we want to run in Jupyter:

from pandas import *
training_set = read_csv('train.csv')
training_set.head()
male = training_set[training_set.sex == 'male']
female = training_set[training_set.sex =='female']
womens_survival_rate = float(sum(female.survived))/len(female)
mens_survival_rate = float(sum(male.survived))/len(male)

The result is we calculate the survival rates of the Titanic's passengers based on their sex.

We create a new notebook, enter the script into appropriate cells, include adding displays of calculated data...
