Function

Explanation of the underlying function

Usage

The script can directly be copied to a Jupyter cell or can be run from terminal. Following command should ensure all dependencies are installed:

py -m pip install pandas, numpy, pysimplegui

Some things the GUI takes care of are:

• Allows selection of columns to be extracted from a sample .csv file
• Allows user to specify which of the selected columns should be parsed as date
• Gives a date based filename to output
• Shows colour coded log for which files were read in green and which were ignored in red background.
