Project Description

This project was created as part of a requirement for the class. I was tasked with finding a dataset on a topic of my choice, and then using python scripts to clean the data, and Tableau to format and present the data.

Solo Work

In this project, I had to write some python scripts that would clean the dataset, format the data into a clean CSV, use that clean data to help create a project dashboard through Tableau, and present the project in a demo video.


The dataset I chose included 34 specs of roughly 3.3k Graphics Cards. With this dataset, I used specs such as the name, memory speed, memory capacity, etc. to provide an analysis on the factor of improvement Graphics Cards have had over time.


The python scripts I wrote helped me filter out the unnecessary columns from the dataset and helped me remove/deal with missing data. In addition to the python scripts, I used Jupyter Notebooks to help execute these operations, produce some charts and help present the data.
