Data Analysis of Chess Grandmasters (GM)

DOI

Recently, the Indian-American Abhimanyu Mishra became the youngest Grandmaster in chess history, qualifying for the title at the age of 12 years 4 months and 25 days, whereas the Venezuelan Salvador Diaz Carias got the FIDE Master (FM) Title at the age of 88. Motivated by these news, which I came to know by the Brazilian YouTube channel Xadrez Brasil, I decided to do a data analysis and visualization about the GMs based on Wikipedia "List of chess grandmasters", using Google Colab to make the Jupyter Notebook.

Jupyter NBViewer allows a better visualization, as you can see HERE. Alternatively, to directly access the notebook in Google Colab, click HERE.

This blog post presents and discusses the results: A Descriptive Data Analysis about the Chess Grandmasters.
