Too Long; Didn't Read
I really enjoyed Jean-Nicholas Hould’s article on <a href="http://www.jeannicholashould.com/tidy-data-in-python.html" target="_blank">Tidy Data in Python</a>, which in turn is based on <a href="http://vita.had.co.nz/papers/tidy-data.pdf" target="_blank">this paper on Tidy Data</a> by Hadley Wickham. In a sense, the conclusions presented are intuitive and obvious when you think about them. But data analysis can be abstract. Finding the right vocabulary for what you’re doing isn’t always easy.
