Help with making empirical CDF using statsmodels

It's a minor problem, but can someone explain to me why statsmodels' ECDF function returns an extra value for x and and extra value for y in my [example](http://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/pybokeh/jupyter_notebooks/blob/master/statistics/nonparametric_methods/Distribution_Free_Methods.ipynb)?. I have to remove them so that I can plot the confidence interval along with my ecdf. I have 44 values in my data set, but the ECDF returns 45 values. So if I try to plot the confidence intervals with my ecdf, it will bomb. So I remove those extra values. Here's the [source](http://statsmodels.sourceforge.net/devel/_modules/statsmodels/distributions/empirical_distribution.html) for the empirical_distribution module. Thanks in advance!

Leveraging Python for Data Visibility - A tutorial on how to leverage python's Data Spyre, Bokeh, and Pygal libraries (xpost from /r/DataScience)

Hi /r/pystats,

I got a recommendation to post this here from /r/python, so here you go!

Last night I gave a talk at the Kansas City Data Science Meetup on how to use Data Spyre to create a lightweight and easy to use web application. On top of that, I give examples on how you can incorporate Bokeh and Pygal plots to add interactivity to your web application as well. I've put my Jupyter notebook along with all of my example scripts into a Git Repo for all to use. Enjoy!

Is Django a good framework for multi-tenancy SaaS app?

I am evaluating difference frameworks right now and it seems like Django is not as mature for building multi-tenancy app. I just tried out django-tenant-schemas today and the repository is not quite caught up with the recent version of Django. I wonder whether anyone have experiences building SaaS app with Django and what do you think of it. Thanks!

Highly custom validation?

Ok so I have a model that asks for an event from a dropdown menu and then depending on what event that is a certain number of people, both men and women, have to be entered before submitting.
An example would be event A requires 3 people, at least 2 male and 1 female or 2 female and 1 male. But the rules for each event are different. Is there any way to go about doing this in django? Thank you so much for the help.

Edit* Im using model forms btw if that matters at all

Embedding IPython example from manual doesn't work (for me)

Hi,
I'm looking to integrate interactive shell to extended unittests framework I work on and I wanted to use IPython for that. But when I tried the example from http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/reference.html#embedding-ipython - embed_class_long.py it doesn't seem to work properly - after exiting instance of InteractiveShellEmbed for the first time, next time it should open it just displays both banner and exit messages and no actual shell opens.

Calling IPython.embed() works ok, but I need to set custom banner and new commands (magics in IPython lingo?) which I think isn't possible that way

Any guesses why the manual example doesn't work or what should I change/test/etc?

(I'm using python 2.7 , ipython version 5.0.0, Linux)

Creating a flask app and thinking of using peewee instead of sqlalchemy...

So, I am creating a flask app and thinking of using peewee instead of sqlalchemy. I have some basic experience with peewee and it seems great to me.

My database will be postgreSQL which I have almost no experience with but I have read that its the recommended Python database for Flask and other web apps.

Are there any glaring problems with using peewee with flask that might cause me problems?

The part of the app I am writing right now is back-end of the back-end. By that I mean that it is the engine that will be running and actually scraping the web and analyzing the data that I want to return to my users. It's the service that the web app will be sending data to and getting results from.

Can anyone suggest a good way to handle postal addresses in Python/Django?

I'm currently finishing up an app that relies somewhat heavily on postal addresses - local and international. I'm currently using (a slightly modified version of) https://github.com/furious-luke/django-address. It does a decent job, but the relationships in the DB are set up so every address FK references a locality, every locality fk references a state, and every state fk references a country. I understand the logic behind doing something like this, but if I enter an address that doesn't contain a locality, it won't store a country, because it breaks the FK reference chain. Has anyone ever setup a flat db table that stores all postal address parameters on individual rows? I've been searching all over for something that will at least store international addresses to no avail. Thanks in advance.
