HW6: Notebooks

Watch this video on installing and use Jupyter Notebooks Links to an external site.. I've include the Python scripts and notebooks from the video in our course repository in the scripts/ and notebooks/ folders, respectively.

Check out this reference for Markdown Links to an external site..

Create a new notebook with the name "hw6-count-bots". In it, write a series of Markdown and code cells that counts the number times each user-agent with 'bot' in it occurs in the uncompressed Apache log file (hank.feild.org-access.log). To do this, you can import code from the scripts you/we have written, or you can copy/paste the relevant code. Be sure to convert the data into logical columns. Place your notebook in the notebooks/ folder of your course git repository on GitHub and submit a link to that file.

When doing these, I'm looking for a good effort, not necessarily the exact right answer. Don't short change yourselves by just trying random things—putting in the time to really give this a good go will pay off in the long run, even if you don't get the exact right answer. Make sure you attempt both questions and that your attempts involve the components asked for in the question. You may work on this with others in the class.
