Python Machine Learning Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

Let's see how we can extract statistics from time series data:

1. Create a new Python file and import the following packages (the full code is given in the extract_stats.py file that is provided for you):

import pandas as pd 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
from convert_to_timeseries import convert_data_to_timeseries 

The convert_to_timeseries function is the function we defined in the previous recipe, Transforming data into a time series format, that read an input file and converted sequential observations into time-indexed data.

2. We will use the same text file that we used in the previous recipes for analysis (data_timeseries.txt):

# Input file containing data 
input_file = 'data_timeseries.txt' 

3. Load both the data columns ...
