Below are a variety of resources to help with learning how to use the staircase package. If you have a question please post to Stack Overflow and use the tag staircase.
The Staircase package was debuted during the 2020 PyCon Australia conference (4th-6th September) , renamed to PyConline AU after needing to transition to a completely online format due to Covid19.
Watch the pre-recorded presentation below (description here).
The tutorials linked below were introduced in the PyConline AU talk, but have since been extended. They are designed to showcase a variety of staircase functionality, as opposed to a variety of use cases.
Live versions of these tutorials can also be accessed through binder.
Ready to give staircase a spin? Need some data? The staircase.make_test_data()
function will get you what you need to start playing.
>>> import staircase as sc
>>> dataframe = sc.make_test_data()
>>> dataframe_dates = sc.make_test_data(dates=True)
