Persnickety Python: Cleaning Text Data

Persnickety Python: Cleaning Text Data In-Person

Event Description

Are you working on a project that combines numerical and categorical data? Are you trying to merge datasets that share a common variable, but which have different naming conventions? Do you need to import a dataset that has errors in its formatting? Are inconsistent survey responses for your research project causing you grief?

Join us for a hands-on workshop that covers techniques that make working with text data less of a headache!

Please note: this workshop assumes a familiarity with the basics of the Python language; if you have not already used Python, please see the Library's Introduction to Python Research Guide (linked as a "Related LibGuide" below).
