General Strategy: Data/Array Analysis in Python -


this strategy question.

i completed task in vba , sql, not know how execute in python because i'm learning, , interested in general approach in python.

i have 3 tables/matrices/arrays.

names , ids:

name   nid amy    1 becky  2 cathy  3 dana   4 

objects associated names , date:

oid   names       date 1a    amy, cathy  3/1/2012 2x    dana        3/1/2011 4s    amy, becky  3/1/2010 

date ranges associated nids:

nid   start     end 3     1/1/2012  1/1/2013 

the question want answer is: every nid in last matrix, oids relevant (i.e. name appears in object , date falls within date range given name in final matrix)?

it's broad question, ecstatic execute kind of task in python if possible. please note few 1 , many 1,000 distinct names can assiacted oid.

why wouldn't keep data in sql database? sql suited handling kind of operations want perform , seems you're familiar it. doing has added advantage of portability, can switch between vba , python without having port ton of code over.

for mysql recommend looking mysqldb module. can take @ official documentation here, , suggest looking @ this more user-friendly tutorial.

if want fast prototyping without having setup mysql server can use sqlite instead. in case take @ documentation sqlite3 module.
