Setup Before starting the assignment, be sure to do the following:
Create a new repository for this project called python-challenge. Do not add this homework assignment to an existing repository.
Clone the new repository to your computer.
Inside your local git repository, create a directory for each Python challenge. Use folder names corresponding to the challenges: PyBank and PyPoll.
Inside of each folder that you just created, add the following:
A new file called main.py. This will be the main script to run for each analysis. A Resources folder that contains the CSV files you used. Make sure your script has the correct path to the CSV file. An analysis folder that contains your text file that has the results from your analysis.
Push these changes to GitHub or GitLab.
PyBank Instructions In this challenge, you are tasked with creating a Python script to analyze the financial records of your company. You will give a set of financial data called budget_data.csv. The dataset is composed of two columns: "Date" and "Profit/Losses". (Thankfully, your company has rather lax standards for accounting, so the records are simple.) Your task is to create a Python script that analyzes the records to calculate each of the following:
The total number of months included in the dataset
The net total amount of "Profit/Losses" over the entire period
The changes in "Profit/Losses" over the entire period, and then the average of those changes
The greatest increase in profits (date and amount) over the entire period
The greatest decrease in profits (date and amount) over the entire period
Your analysis should look similar to the following:
Total Months: 86
Total:
In addition, your final script should both print the analysis to the terminal and export a text file with the results.
PyPoll Instructions In this challenge, you are tasked with helping a small, rural town modernize its vote counting process. You will be given a set of poll data called election_data.csv. The dataset is composed of three columns: "Voter ID", "County", and "Candidate". Your task is to create a Python script that 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.
Your analysis should look similar to the following:
Charles Casper Stockham: 23.049% (85213) Diana DeGette: 73.812% (272892) Raymon Anthony Doane: 3.139% (11606)
In addition, your final script should both print the analysis to the terminal and export a text file with the results.
