Here's a fun post I worked on with Andrew H. analyzing past Olympic game data.

Interesting to see how the Games have changed over time - like how historically it's the most equal its ever been. We used a combination of open-source tools like Panel and Bokeh, and Anaconda, Inc.'s cloud Notebooks to run code and visualize the data.

The #Olympics aren’t just a showcase of athletic prowess; they’re a treasure trove of data waiting to be explored.

Today marks the beginning of the Paris 2024 Olympics and here at Anaconda we thought what better way to get involved than to analyze past Olympic game data to show how the Games have evolved over time.

In a blog post from Anaconda, Inc.’s Andrew H., we employed the open-source projects Panel and Bokeh using our free Anaconda Notebooks to visualize modern Olympic game data from 1896 to present day. The post uncovers:
⭐ The countries that hosted the most Olympic games
🏅 The countries and athletes that won the most Olympic medals
♂️♀️ Which Olympic games are exclusive to gender
📅 When each sport took place in the Olympics.. And more!
