# Load the data
workout = pd.read_csv('./data/workout.csv')
three_keywords = pd.read_csv('./data/three_keywords.csv')

Check data

# workout
print(workout.head())
# three_keywords
print(three_keywords.head())
# workout_geo
print(workout_geo.head())
# three_keywords_geo
print(three_keywords_geo.head())

Exploratory analysis: year of peak interest

# Creating a year column
workout['year'] = workout['month'].str.strip().str[:-3]

# Grouping per year
workout.groupby('year')['workout_worldwide'].sum().sort_values(ascending=False)

# Taking the most searched year
year_str = workout.groupby('year')['workout_worldwide'].sum().sort_values(ascending=False).index[0]
print(f'The most searched year is: {year_str}')

Exploratory analysis: popular keyword during COVID

# Creating date subsets for COVID and current year
three_keywords_covid = three_keywords[(three_keywords['month'] < '2023-05') & (three_keywords['month'] >= '2020-01')]

three_keywords_now = three_keywords[three_keywords['month'].isin(['2023-01', '2023-02', '2023-03'])]
