The Chicago Taxi Trips data set has over 100 million records with 26 fields (variables) per record. Table 1.2 presents a subset of fields and their meaning as described in the Taxi Trips documentation (Levy, 2017). We will later see that the formatting of the data in the taxi trip data set is going to present some challenges when working with the data in Python. On a positive note, these challenges working with real data provide a means of learning practical insights into programming with Python. Table 1.3 has sample data selected from the taxi trips data set that correspond to the fields in Table 1.2.
