Hello! I got curious and wanted to build a visualization for winning streaks on Jeopardy, since there seem to be so many long ones lately.

I pulled data from J! Archive, wrote a little Python script to parse it, and then put together this visualization using p5.js. The darker the blue is, the longer the streak was.

Note that this only counts "regular season" games, and not special tournaments that Jeopardy has every so often. That's why each some of the seasons are much shorter than others.

Hope you find it as interesting as I did making it!
