Description

Session Goal:

The session aimed to address date formatting issues in Matplotlib plots and develop a comprehensive workflow for processing and analyzing stock data using Python.

Key Activities:

  • Manual Plotting with Matplotlib: Addressed x-axis date formatting issues by manually plotting DataFrame columns, ensuring better control over [[data visualization]].
  • Workflow Planning: Outlined a plan to create a workflow for processing and analyzing stock data, including defining functions for data processing and plotting.
  • Function Implementation: Implemented functions for processing stock data and plotting analysis using Matplotlib, including date parsing and setting dates as an index.
  • Atlas Creation: Developed a method for creating an ‘atlas’ of business cases from stock data, involving sampling, sorting, and visualizing data in Markdown format.
  • Data Conversion: Provided a solution for converting Excel-style date integers to Pandas Timestamps using [[pandas]].to_datetime().

Achievements:

Pending Tasks:

  • Further refine the plotting functions to handle different data structures and analysis objectives.
  • Explore additional visualization techniques for enhanced data insights.
