Practical exercises

Getting started

• Workshop workflow - replicate the UI usecase via the API.

Exercises: Looking at ways to:

1. Find which InterMine has your preferred organisms
2. Create queries
3. Constrain queries
4. Save lists to the server
5. Get enrichment statistics over lists
6. Use templates - canned queries - to answer common questions quickly.

Advanced things to try

These are optional challenges that can be attempted if you complete the tutorials ahead of everyone else!

Can you…

• Coax the tissue expression data from this workflow into a pandas dataframe, and then into a bar chart that plots the expression?
  • notes: query.rows() returns an iterator - you’ll need to add all the results to a dictionary or list first, and then create the dataframe
