I am using Google Colab with my friend for a group project. I uploaded a csv file and had pandas read it as a dataframe:
from google.colab import files
uploaded = files.upload()
import io
df = pd.read_csv(io.StringIO(uploaded['cumulative.csv'].decode('utf-8')))
However, when I shared the notebook with my friend, he could not use the uploaded df. I was wondering if there was anyway to fix this? Or does Google colab simply not have the sharing files feature?
Thank you!
It will prompt you to select a file. Click on “Choose Files” then select and upload the file. Wait for the file to be 100% uploaded. You should see the name of the file once Colab has uploaded it.
Colaboratory lets you connect to a local runtime using Jupyter. This allows you to execute code on your local hardware and have access to your local file system.
The sharing feature is on the code (notebook) only. But you and your friend each run the code in a separate instance machine. So, if you want to share, it's best to use reading from Google Drive that each of you can do oneself.
