Packaging this dataset #8

Closed psteinb closed 6 months ago

Hi, thanks for contributing this dataset as open source. Motivated by "Understanding Deep Learning", I'd love to start playing with it.

I saw that the repo is not ready for packaging. As the code is rather straight forward, I was wondering if any PRs would be appreciated to package this as a python module.

This would also make it more easier to use more broadly than by using the requests package. People could just go: pip install mnist1d and have the code for augmenting and changing under their fingers. Just a thought!

Right now, I get the following:

python -m pip install git+https://github.com/greydanus/mnist1d.git@master

Peter, this is a great suggestion. I haven never packaged a library before - can you help me set this up? I'm all ears.
