Lab | Write an article in Medium

Description

In this lab, you will write an article in Medium about the project you have been working on during the past week. You are free to choose the topic to focus on but remember that it has to be related to your project.

Here are some ideas:

• Starting a data project from scratch.

Explain your project planning, your workflow, the plots you used, your comments on those plots and your final conclusions.

If you used an API, explain which one and your experience working with it. Was it easy? What problems did you find on the way?

• My first steps on web scraping.
