Unable to detect Python Language on repository

[abentgeorge]

I'm practicing data cleaning via python. However my repository is only detecting JupyterNotebook

I understand why Jupyter notebook is being detected(extra cell code) but couldn't find a workaround

I tried creating the python file on Sublime text and uploading it separately but even then the language is only detecting Jupyter.
How do I go about this?

This issue really should have been opened as a Discussion (last option in the list you were presented with when opening this issue). I'd transfer it, but the option isn't coming up and I'm still trying to workout why.

Please can you re-open this as a discussion in the "Language Analysis" category.

I've reopened this issue and will transfer it to discussions and answer once moved.

I've taken a look at your repository and I can see it is showing Jupyter notebook and Python:

If you click each of the languages in the side bar, you'll be able to see which files are responsible for each language. The reason Juptyer is the primary language is because your single Jupyter file is significantly larger than your single python file (16.7kb vs 1.09kb) and Linguist works on the bytes of code.

If you would like Python to be the primary language, you'll need to either write more python 😉 or implement an override as detailed in in the Overrides section of the README.md

Thanks alot Colin! Gonna experiment with that! Decided to switch to Spyder as my IDE to avoid this issue.
