Examples for Jupyter Notebooks

A space to collect and share Jupyter notebooks.

All notebooks should ideally work without any extra files, use only standard Python libraries (pandas, scikit-learn, etc.), and gather their data from the web. An introduction into Jupyter Notebooks and Python is also available online.
