And well done on becoming a Python Pro Sprouty!
Thanks! I'm a long way from considering myself a pro at this point, but I am at least evidencing that I have skills beyond my normal toolset, which may well secure me a better grade.
My original intention was to do most of the grunt work within Python, then visualise the data output within Excel. I've come to the conclusion that Excel isn't the right tool for that either, so I am now attempting to visualise within Python. Once again, not my original intention, but it only cements my side goal of proving my ability to use a range of systems. Only downside is that again, I need to learn how to actually do it.
I have managed to put together a whisker chart within Python, which was one of the two graph types that I did not evidence in my portfolio. I am slightly panicked at this point as I doubt the final output will look as smart as my normal work, but I am hoping the exam board will see my work as a whole and appreciate that whilst it may not look as smart, I have gone to great efforts to do something outside of my comfort zone.
On a personal note, I am pretty pleased that I have actually put together some analysis within Python and look forward to using it further in the future.
