Technical requirements

You can find all the data and code files for this chapter in the book’s GitHub repository at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Data-Science-for-Web3/tree/main/Chapter10. We recommend that you read through the code files in the Chapter10 folder to follow along.

In this chapter, we will use the Ethereum Utilities library (eth-utils), which contains commonly used utility functions for Python developers working with Ethereum. Depending on our environment, we may need to import additional low-level libraries that are utilized by eth-utils.

If you haven’t installed eth-utils yet, you can do so using the following code snippet:

pip install eth-utils

The documentation for eth-utils is available at https://eth-utils.readthedocs.io/en/stable/. If the installation fails due to a lack of supporting libraries, you can find the complete list of required libraries that need to be pre-installed in Chapter10/EDA.ipynb.
