6.1. Get Data#
df_raw = pd.read_json("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dariusk/corpora/master/data/humans/scientists.json")
df_raw.head()
description | scientists | |
---|---|---|

6.2. Prepare the dataset#
df = df_raw[ ['scientists'] ].copy()
df['first_name'] = df.scientists.apply( lambda x: x.split(' ')[0] )
df['last_name'] = df.scientists.apply( lambda x: x.split(' ')[-1] )
df['len_diff'] = df.apply( lambda x: len(x.first_name) - len(x.last_name), axis=1 )
df.head()
scientists | first_name | last_name | len_diff | |
---|---|---|---|---|
0 | Aage Bohr | Aage | Bohr | 0 |
1 | Abdul Qadeer Khan | Abdul | Khan | 1 |
2 | Abu Nasr Al-Farabi | Abu | Al-Farabi | -6 |

fig, ax = plt.subplots( figsize=(10,6.18) )
df.plot.hist(ax=ax)
