#####japanesenames#####What's this=================japanesnames is a python package to help you name your loving child. It works on Python 2.x.Be sure to call make_data.py before you play. It scrapes tons of names via websites and write data to files.By using Collection classes, you can query names giving kanji characters or a part of furigana.For example, you want to give one of kanji in your name to child's name. You do : >>> # import collection class >>> from japanesenames.collection import BoysNameCollection as BNC >>> # make collection class to perform query >>> q = BNC() >>> # find names containing character '淳'. >>> q.contains(u'淳') >>> # print number of items in current collection. >>> print len(q) 61 >>> # give one more word restriction to query >>> q.contains_in_furigana(u'あ') >>> print len(q) 40The collection object itself returns iterator. Let's make list out of it to see selected items. >>> print list(q) [Name(name=u'淳夢', furigana=u'あつむ'), ...] >>> # remove items which are furigana is 'あつし' >>> [x for x in q if x.furigana != u'あつし'] [Name(name=u'淳夢', furigana=u'あつむ'), ...]Each objects representing names are Name objects. They ara hashable, which menas instances can be included in sets. You can do set operation among collections by converting collection to set. >>> q1 = BNC() >>> q1.contains(u'淳') >>> q2 = BNC() >>> q2.contains_in_furigana(u'あつ') >>> # avoid names containing similar furigana as 'あつし' >>> set(q1) - set(q2) set([Name(name=u'淳規', furigana=u'じゅんき'), Name(name=u'淳平', furigana=u'じゅんぺい')...])Name object has kakusu() method. You can calculate kakusu easily. >>> # show kakusu of each name >>> [(x, x.kakusu()) for x in set(q1) - set(q2)] [(Name(name=u'淳規', furigana=u'じゅんき'), 22), (Name(name=u'淳平', furigana=u'じゅんぺい'), 16)....]
