You'll build a real command-line application in Python that does data analysis on text files, or rather, entire novels like "Frankenstein", "Moby Dick" or "Pride and Prejudice". You'll be guided through the set up of a professional development environment using Python, Git, and Github. This is the perfect first Python project for beginners.
