The starter datasets came from R's samples, so their html documentation includes R examples on how to use the data. Would it be considered worthwhile to translate the usage information to Python3?

I am interested in contributing by starting to convert some of these. It's going to much easier for you to review If you could restructure so that the resources.tar.gz is in a folder structure, otherwise the PR will just have two binaries.

Thoughts?

Hi @iamaziz, just following up on my message for a few months ago.

Hi @jaypeedevlin sorry for the delayed response.
Actually, at the moment, I am not so convinced about the idea of shipping the tar.gz with package installation. This isn't scalable in the long run.

Agree with what you mentioned. Perhaps a better way would be to maintain the documentation in a separate repo.
