Welcome to Green Numbers Data Tutorials! I have enjoyed a career in data science as an epidemiologist and informatician for 15 years in state government, university, and the pharmaceutical industry. With this channel I'm excited to demonstrate what I've learned and to learn a few new things along the way. I have a lot of experience using SAS and I'm also very interested in python, so my focus will be in those areas. I also plan to demonstrate practical skills using MS Excel and Access as well. I hope you'll let me know what you'd like to see in future videos.
Thanks so much! I have been looking for this kind of videos for a long time ! Please keep going and it is very helpful and clear the way you are teaching !:) good job
Thanks for this video. I cut my data clearing and coding teeth on PRXMATCH functions but most of the PRXChange literature (SUGI papers etc) didn't make sense to me because they would always seem to skip over the basic 's/ match/ change /' intro. You had it sorted for me in about 45 seconds and I was moving forward with robust code.
The census batch geocoding API seems to be painfully slow on my end. Is that what you find as well? At the moment, I'm trying to geocode in groups of maybe 700 and it has already taken more than 5 min and I have yet to get a response. I've used the censusgeocode package as well, and that also takes so long that it is un-usable, in my opinion. Any suggestions as to how it could be sped up?
@@yongyanyue7165 I switched to geocoding through the ArcGis API and that was considerably faster. It does cost $ but if you setup the right kind of account and only geocode what is necessary, then it's pretty cost effective.
