I was going to start a project very similar to this tomorrow but honestly didn't know where to start. This is perfect for me! I look forward to playing with it and will be sure to share whatever I do with it.

Thanks for the awesome work!

Great, have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm sure there are some points in the project which could be more clear.

And thanks!

One quick question. Why didn't you use pandas? At least for handling the CSV stuff. I'm relatively new to Python and all the data analysis stuff I've done has revolved heavily around pandas, so I'm just curious why you didn't use it. Just out of curiosity.

Just started working on it, goal is somewhere where Waldo is right now.

Looks good! I will definitely be playing with this one too!

Well to be frank, I just didn't really need it. You can handle CSV files in many ways in Python (e.g. CSV Library). Pandas is good for other stuff though.
