Here’s the transcript of the video: Hi everyone. How are you? Thushyanthan here. I wanted to take a few minutes to provide some feedback and, I guess in some sense, a review of the course material potentially also a testimonial. So take it how you will. But before I begin, I just want to give … Read more
The Python getpass module provides portable password input functionality and allows you to accept an input string in a command-line interface (CLI) without the string being typed from being visible (echoed) in the interface. The getpass module also includes a getuser function for retrieving a username from the relevant environment variables. In this getpass Python … Read more

Factorial Definition and Example 💡 The factorial function n! calculates the number of permutations in a set. Say you want to rank three soccer teams Manchester United, FC Barcelona, and FC Bayern München — how many possible rankings exist? The answer is 3! = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6. Practical Example: Say, there … Read more
Normal distribution is a statistical prerequisite for parametric tests like Pearson’s correlation, t-tests, and regression. Testing for normal distribution can be done visually with sns.displot(x, kde=true). The Shapiro-Wilk test for normality can be done quickest with pingouin‘s pg.normality(x). 💡 Note: Several publications note that normal distribution is the least important prerequisite for parametric tests and … Read more
A good solution to calculate Pearson’s r and the p-value, to report the significance of the correlation, in Python is scipy.stats.pearsonr(x, y). A nice overview of the results delivers pingouin’s pg.corr(x, y). What is Pearson’s “r” Measure? A statistical correlation with Pearson’s r measures the linear relationship between two numerical variables. The correlation coefficient r … Read more
