Usage

python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-private-households-by-geographical-location-with-internet-6e1c363f")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())

Inspect Columns

python
print(df.info())
print(df.head())

Filter By Geography

python
if "country_iso3" in df.columns:
    sample = df[df["country_iso3"] == "MU"]

Time-Series Pattern

python
if "value" in df.columns and "year" in df.columns:
    trend = df.sort_values("year")

Pivot For Analysis

python
if {"indicator_id", "year", "value"}.issubset(df.columns):
    matrix = df.pivot_table(index="year", columns="indicator_id", values="value")
    print(matrix.tail())

Data Quality Notes

  • —Canonical time field: year.
  • —Missing values are preserved rather than silently imputed.
  • —Column names are standardized for machine use; source meanings are preserved where known.
  • —Always confirm source methodology, units, and collection definitions before policy, production, or redistribution-sensitive use.

Source And Provenance

Transformations Applied

  • —Converted the source table to Parquet for efficient analytics and ML workflows.
  • —Added or preserved source provenance columns where available.
  • —Standardized README metadata, dataset loading configuration, schema documentation, and citation format.
  • —Preserved source-reported values without analytical imputation.

Suggested Analyses

  • —Track workforce composition over time
  • —Compare employment patterns across groups
  • —Join with education, population, and sector data
  • —Build time-series views and period-over-period comparisons
  • —Check missingness before modeling
  • —Use country_iso3 as the safest geography join key when present
