DOWNLOADING WEB PAGES WITH PYTHON Copy the following program into Komodo Edit, save it as save-webpage.py and execute it. Using the File -> Open File command in Firefox, open the file on your hard drive that it creates ( obo-t17800628-33.html) to confirm that your saved copy is the same as

the online copy.

VISUALIZING DATA WITH BOKEH AND PANDAS To implement and use Bokeh, we first import some basics that we need from the bokeh.plotting module.. figure is the core object that we will use to create plots.figure handles the styling of plots, including title, labels, axes, and grids, and it exposes methods for adding data to the plot. The output_file function defines how the visualization will be rendered (namely to an html file) and the ANALYZING DOCUMENTS WITH TF-IDF INSTALLING PYTHON MODULES WITH PIP If you prefer to install pip using the windows command line, navigate to whatever directory you’ve placed python and get-pip.py. For this example, we’ll assume this directory is python27, so we’ll use the command C:\>cd python27. Once you are in this directory, to WEB MAPPING WITH PYTHON AND LEAFLET A web server is used to serve content from your directory to your browser. If you’re in your working directory, from the command line, run: python -m SimpleHTTPServer or python3 -m http.server (for Python3) SimpleHTTPServer is a Python module. If you want CREATING AND VIEWING HTML FILES WITH PYTHON Save the above program as write-html.py and execute it. Use File -> Open in your chosen text editor to open helloworld.html to verify that your program actually created the file. The content should look like this: HTML Source Generated by Python Program. Now go to your Firefox browser and choose File -> New Tab, go to the tab, and choose File SETTING UP AN INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT FOR Next, in the Preferences section select Internationalization . Select Python from the drop-down menu titled Language-specific Default Encoding and make sure that UTF-8 is selected as the default encoding method. Set the Language to UTF-8. Next choose Toolbox->Add->New Command. This will open a new dialog window. AN INTRODUCTION TO TWITTERBOTS WITH TRACERY An Introduction to Twitter Bots with Tracery. This lesson explains how to create simple twitterbots using the Tracery generative grammar and the Cheap Bots Done Quick service.

Computer programs can become long, unwieldy and confusing without special mechanisms for managing complexity. This lesson will show you how to reuse parts of your code by writing functions and break your programs into modules, in order to keep everything concise and easier to debug. transforming python 2012-07-17 2 0.

If you’re in your working directory, from the command line, run: python -m SimpleHTTPServer or python3 -m http.server (for Python3) SimpleHTTPServer is a Python module. If you want MANIPULATING STRINGS IN PYTHON This statement tells Python to apply the lower function to the string message7 and store the returned value in the string message7a.. The square brackets serve a different purpose. If you think of a string as a sequence of characters, and you want to be able to access the contents of the string by their location within the sequence, then you need some way of giving Python a location within a INTRODUCTION TO POPULATING A WEBSITE WITH API DATA This lesson introduces a way to populate a website with data obtained from another website via an Application Programming Interface (API). Using some simple programming, it provides strategies for customizing the presentation of that data, providing flexible and generalizable skills. Peer-reviewed. CC-BY 4.0. GETTING STARTED WITH TOPIC MODELING AND MALLET Click new and type MALLET_HOME in the variable name box. It must be like this – all caps, with an underscore – since that is the shortcut that the programmer built into the program and all of its subroutines. Then type the exact path (location) of where you unzipped MALLET in the variable value, e.g., c:\mallet. INTRO TO BEAUTIFUL SOUP Beautiful Soup is a Python library for getting data out of HTML, XML, and other markup languages. INSTALLING QGIS 2.0 AND ADDING LAYERS For those who would like to add pre-fab base maps to QGIS, you can try installing the ‘OpenLayers’ Plugin under Plugins->Manage and Install Plugins. Select “Get More” on the left. Click OpenLayers and then click Install plugin. Click OK and then click close. Once installed, you’ll find OpenLayers in the Plugins Menu. CLEANING OCR’D TEXT WITH REGULAR EXPRESSIONS Optical Character Recognition (OCR)—the conversion of scanned images to machine-encoded text—has proven a godsend for historical research. This process allows texts to be searchable on one hand and more easily parsed and mined on the other. But we’ve all noticed that the OCR for historic texts is far from perfect. FROM HTML TO LIST OF WORDS (PART 2) In this lesson, you will learn the Python commands needed to implement the second part of the algorithm begun in the From HTML to a List of Words (part 1). The first half of the algorithm gets the content of an HTML page and saves only the content between the first and the last tags.
