Elevated Python types don't get their hands dirty top posting, but I'm
certain that they would when talking data or there wouldn't be so many
debates on which data type to use :)

Thanks. I will try the SciPy list. It was a bit of a hail mary anyway. Pretty
sure elevated Python types don't actually get their hands dirty with data. ;)

List folk,
I am a newbie trying to get used to Python. I was wondering if anyone knows of
web resources that teach good practices in data cleaning and management for
statistics/analytics/machine learning, particularly using Python.
Ideally, these would be exercises of the form: here is some horrible raw data
--> here is what it should look like after it has been cleaned. Guidelines
about steps that should always be taken, practices that should be avoided;
basically, workflow of data analysis in Python with special emphasis on the
cleaning part.
Since no one has answered, I suggest you narrow your searching from
'python' to 'scipy' (or 'numpy').
Also perhaps ipython.
And then perhaps try those specific mailing lists/fora.
Since I dont know this area much, not saying more.
