Description

Session Goal

The session aimed to explore and develop Python-based tools for language translation and data processing.

Key Activities

  • Implemented string similarity calculations using the FuzzyWuzzy library in Python to compare two columns in a DataFrame.
  • Developed a Python script using BeautifulSoup to scrape a webpage for the 1000 most common Portuguese words and their English translations, storing the results in a pandas DataFrame.
  • Explored the use of the Google Translate API for translating text from Portuguese to Spanish in Google Sheets, considering both Python and Google Apps Script for implementation.
  • Created a sample Python code for a language translation game, prompting users to translate Portuguese words into Spanish using a DataFrame.
  • Developed an interactive Python game that challenges users to translate words between Portuguese and Spanish, providing feedback and allowing two attempts per word.

Achievements

  • Successfully implemented string similarity calculations and web scraping scripts.
  • Developed a functional interactive language translation game in Python.

Pending Tasks

  • Further exploration and integration of the Google Translate API with Google Sheets for automated translations.
