I would like to find the most downloaded apps from the previous month in Google Play store(or I can make do with itunes too actually), and perform further exploratory data analysis with the data on these apps.
Python is familiar to me. But I don't know what approach is used to achieve this.
There is another alternative package which works for scraping google play store data, below is the link
https://pypi.org/project/google-play-scraper/
In case, your looking straight for sample code follow the below steps
from google_play_scraper import app
result = app(
'com.nianticlabs.pokemongo',
lang='en', # defaults to 'en'
country='us' # defaults to 'us'
)
print(result)
