Last.FM Example
Author: Andreas Traut
In this example I downloaded my complete history of played songs since 2016 from www.last.fm (66'955 songs in total) and re-built some of these nice statistics and figues, which last.fm provides. This are for example a bar-plot with monthly aggregates of total played songs. Or top 10 songs of the week and so on. Having the same plots at the end as last.fm has prooves, that my results are correct. :-)
The format of the csv-file is as follows:
