Data Update

Important Update!

Our 2nd hackday was yesterday and what a great day it was. We had a great talk from Nostradata that hopefully gave everyone present more insight into the data, and a couple of talks from Paul and Mark that will hopefully help in putting your final presentation together. There are some photos of hackday 2 on the meetup page here.

The main news is that an issue was discovered with the data extract that meant some records were missing, so we’ve got an extra 6 million transactions for you (welcome to data science in the wild!). In order to discover how to get this new data you must be on our event sign up list in which case you will already have received an email (FYI - gmail sends our mail-chimp messages to the promotions tab). For more info and to keep upto date with all he latest news then please join the slack channel.

Just to remind everyone, information on the submission process was included in the read me file that was in the data zip file.
