Python version of the R arcos package
Project description
arcospy
Welcome to arcospy
, the unofficial python version of the R arcos
package maintained by the Washington Post. arcospy
is the result of a class project carried out at the University of Maryland in the Fall of 2019. The project was motivated by the Washington Post’s data-driven story on a large pain pill database recently made publicly available.
The arcospy
module was built to offer the exact same functionality as arcos
, with the only difference being the ability to run the API calls in python! All of the commands in arcospy
inherit the names from the original commands in arcos
. Both arcos
and arcospy
act as wrappers for the DEA ARCOS dataset.
