Project 0: Titanic Survival Exploration

Install

This project requires Python 2.7 and the following Python libraries installed:

You will also need to have software installed to run and execute a Jupyter Notebook

If you do not have Python installed yet, it is highly recommended that you install the Anaconda distribution of Python, which already has the above packages and more included. Make sure that you select the Python 2.7 installer and not the Python 3.x installer.

Code

Template code is provided in the notebook titanic_survival_exploration.ipynb notebook file. Additional supporting code can be found in visuals.py. While some code has already been implemented to get you started, you will need to implement additional functionality when requested to successfully complete the project. Note that the code included in visuals.py is meant to be used out-of-the-box and not intended for students to manipulate. If you are interested in how the visualizations are created in the notebook, please feel free to explore this Python file.

Run

In a terminal or command window, navigate to the top-level project directory titanic_survival_exploration/ (that contains this README) and run one of the following commands:

jupyter notebook titanic_survival_exploration.ipynb

or

ipython notebook titanic_survival_exploration.ipynb

This will open the Jupyter Notebook software and project file in your web browser.
