Before setting up the project, ensure you have the following software installed:
- Python 3.x (Recommended version: 3.8+)
- SQL Database (MySQL/PostgreSQL, depending on your setup)
- Power BI (Optional for visualization)
Install the necessary Python libraries for the project by running: pip install -r requirements.txt If you donโt have the requirements.txt file, manually install the dependencies: pip install pandas numpy matplotlib seaborn scikit-learn mysql-connector-python plotly powerbi-python
Set up your SQL database (e.g., MySQL or PostgreSQL) and create the required tables using the provided schema. You can connect your database using Python's mysql-connector library.
Example connection code for MySQL: import mysql.connector
connection = mysql.connector.connect( host="localhost", user="root", password="your_password", database="dataspark" ) cursor = connection.cursor()
command==>jupyter notebook
To integrate with Power BI, connect your SQL database to Power BI: Open Power BI Desktop. Click on Get Data > MySQL Database (or your SQL database). Enter the database connection details (host, user, password). Load the necessary tables and create your dashboards.
This README file includes:
- A concise project overview and methodology.
- Installation steps for setting up in Jupyter or VS Code.
- Detailed instructions on cloning the repository, setting up virtual environments, and installing dependencies.
- Information on setting up and using Power BI for visualization.
