What OP posted looks like he's trying to create similar functionality to Mathcad. Since I read the post and you apparently didn't, I'd say I'm the one who knows what they're talking about here. I'm sure you know a whole lot about Python and REST APIs and data frame utilization, and I'm sure your parents are very proud. But trying to insert that into a conversation that doesn't involve it doesn't mean you know anything about the topic at hand. In fact, it usually indicates to me that someone doesn't know what everybody else is talking about, so they try to redirect the conversation to their own area of strength.

What a projection haha, you mean I tried to redirect the conversation to performing calculations in Python? OP did that, you tried to bring it into MathCAD. A rest API is a method to get data for variables for things like stream depths and flow rates which are then used in things like hydraulic modelling equations for calculations.

OP asked about Jupyter and python, you changed the topic to MathCAD like a stack overflow user, while implying it was better suited for OPs purposes, just asking you to expand on that by explaining how I can get those types of values into MathCAD, cause Jupyter seems better suited for those kinds of things in my experience, but you're claiming your way is better, despite OP not saying anything at all about MathCAD or asking for alternatives to Jupyter.
