  Introduction If you’re working with cloud data, especially on AWS, chances are you’ll encounter data stored in CSV files inside an Amazon S3 bucket . Whether you're building a data pipeline or a quick analysis tool, reading data directly from S3 in Python is a fast, reliable, and scalable way to get started. In this blog post, we’ll walk through: Setting up access to S3 Reading a CSV file using Python and Boto3 Displaying headers and rows Tips to handle larger datasets Let’s jump in! What You’ll Need An AWS account An S3 bucket with a CSV file uploaded AWS credentials (access key and secret key) Python 3.x installed boto3 and pandas libraries installed (you can install them via pip) pip install boto3 pandas Step-by-Step: Read CSV from S3 Let’s say your S3 bucket is named my-data-bucket , and your CSV file is sample-data/employees.csv . ✅ Step 1: Import Required Libraries import boto3 import pandas as pd from io import StringIO boto3 is...

Here's Python Program for List Duplicates

Image
Here is a program to find the item that occurs most frequently in a data structure. So why to find frequent item? Maybe it is the most purchased item on your shopping site. Perhaps it is the web page that gets hit the most often. If you are a tester, it could easily be the test that has had the most failures over the last year. Whatever it is, you want an easy way to find the data you need, and Python is here to help you. Python List duplicates Here are the two simple lists: list_1 = [1,2,3,2,3,2]  list_2 = ['a', 'b', 'a', 'b', 'c'] We can't do simple math on the individual items  since the second list contains characters. For example, it could contain the words of a book, and you want to find the most commonly used word in the work.  Also, it maybe list of UPC values for commonly purchased items. Whatever it is, all we can guarantee is that the data is probably comparable, in that we can compare one of the items to another. Yet we need to f...

These Tips Helpful to Remove Python List and Dictionary Duplicates

Image
In this post, I have shared top ideas to remove duplicates from the list. Those are with Append and Dictionary. 1. How to Remove Duplicates with Append # Here is a list with duplicates list_with_duplicates = [1,2,3,12,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,7,8,9] It is simple if you follow the first-approach - brute force approach: list_without_duplicates = [] for pd in list_with_duplicates:   if pd not in list_without_duplicates:       list_without_duplicates.append(pd) print(list_without_duplicates) Result: [1, 2, 3, 12, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] This method has performance issues when the list is bigger in size.  Real-time. 2. How to Remove Duplicates with Dictionary # Here is you can convert a list to a dictionary dict_without_duplicates = dict(zip(list_with_duplicates, list_with_duplicates)) print(dictionary_without_duplicates) Result: {1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 12: 12, 4: 4, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 7, 8: 8, 9: 9} Real-time. Once again, this works and has the advantage of taking less space than duplic...
