Hello Avik, I was suspecting something similar, although I didn't entirely understand the 'recoverable parsing needed by html...' part of your comment, but I am reading up on it now. I'll probably modify my existing code to incorporate julia packages themselves, next. It might be quite usefu

Hi Siddhant, It looks like the python lxml package wraps the libxml2 parser. Julia also has a package that wraps libxm2: https://github.com/lindahua/LightXML.jl. Not sure if the recoverable parsing needed by html is exposed yet, but that should not be too difficult to add, if necessary. Rega

As suggested by a few users on the IRC channel, I have added a function to query the UCI ML repository website and return a list of names of currently available datasets and their default task. You can find the updated package here: https://github.com/siddhantjain/UCIMLRepo.jl After cloning th

Hello everyone, Thank you for your response. 1. I apologise for the careless mistakes in the README.md file. They have been fixed now. 2. *Regarding the incompatibility with Windows machine:* I have little idea in this regard. What I'll do is go through forums and ask for help on the irc and see

Hi, Siddhant Thanks for working on this. I took a brief look of the source codes. Here are several comments: 1. It is the convention of Julia package to have a suffix *.jl* in the repo name. For example, you can have your github repo named ``UCLMLRepo.jl``. 2. It seems that the blocks within i

Siddhant I am taking a look at your package this morning. A couple of issues to get started cloning your repos. Yuour instructions are slightly wrong in your README.md file. You say run the following command: *Julia>*Pkg.Clone("git://github.com/siddhantjain/UCIMLRepo.jl.git") 1) The clone ca
