Building a Movie Recommendation Program in Python
Introduction
In today’s digital age, finding the perfect movie to watch can be overwhelming with so many options available. To address this, I built a Movie Recommendation Program in Python, designed to help users easily discover movies by genre and release year. This tool simplifies the decision-making process and makes movie selection more enjoyable.
The Program in Action
How It Works
The Movie Recommendation Program is comprised of three main files:
app.py
: The main application file that handles user interaction.movie_management_system.py
: Contains the classes and methods for managing the movie collection.movies_dataset.csv
: A dataset file with information on various movies.
Code Overview
- Loading Movies: The program reads data from
movies_dataset.csv
and loads it into aMovieCollection
object. - User Interaction: Users can search for movies by genre or filter them by release year.
- Movie Management: The
MovieCollection
class inmovie_management_system.py
organizes movies into genres and allows for efficient retrieval and display.
Here’s a snippet of the main application:
