MusicianFamilyTree
A galaxy of 6491 musicians and their pupils, showing the complicated web of the history of music.
Overview
- The code scrapes data from Wikipedia, from the articles listing music students by teacher (e.g, from A to B), using the BeautifulSoup and Requests modules respectively).
- This was originally scraped into a csv format, with the format:
| Line | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | teacher_name | ... | ||
| 2 | teacher_href | ... | ||
| 3 | pupil_name_0 | pupil_name_1 | pupil_name_2 | ... |
| 4 | pupil_href_0 | pupil_href_1 | pupil_href_2 | ... |
| 5 |
- Then, the wonderful NetworkX module is used to create a graph object, and MatPlotLib is used to create beautiful styling.
