10_Python_Pandas_Module
Introduction 👋
What is Pandas in Python?
In Pandas, the data is usually utilized to support the statistical analysis in SciPy, plotting functions from Matplotlib, and machine learning algorithms in Scikit-learn.
Main Features
Here are just a few of the things that pandas does well:
- Easy handling of missing data (represented as
NaN) in floating point as well as non-floating point data - Size mutability: columns can be inserted and deleted from DataFrame and higher dimensional objects
- Automatic and explicit data alignment: objects can be explicitly aligned to a set of labels, or the user can simply
ignore the labels and let
Series,DataFrame, etc. automatically align the data for you in computations - Powerful, flexible group by functionality to perform split-apply-combine operations on data sets, for both aggregating and transforming data
- Make it easy to convert ragged, differently-indexed data in other Python and NumPy data structures into DataFrame objects
- Intelligent label-based slicing, fancy indexing, and subsetting of large data sets
- Intuitive merging and joining datasets
- Flexible reshaping and pivoting of datasets
- Hierarchical labeling of axes (possible to have multiple labels per tick)
- Robust IO tools for loading data from flat files (CSV and delimited), Excel files, databases, and saving/loading data from the ultrafast HDF5 format
- Time series-specific functionality: date range generation and frequency conversion, moving window statistics, moving window linear regressions, date shifting and lagging, etc.
Core Components of Pandas Data Structure
Pandas have two core data structure components, and all operations are based on those two objects. Organizing data in a particular way is known as a data structure. Here are the two pandas data structures:
- Series
- DataFrame

How can I read this tutorial without an Internet connection? 
-
Go
hereand click the big green ➞Codebutton in the top right of the page, then click ➞Download ZIP.
-
Extract the ZIP and open it. Unfortunately I don't have any more specific instructions because how exactly this is done depends on which operating system you run.
-
Launch ipython notebook from the folder which contains the notebooks. Open each one of them
Kernel > Restart & Clear Output
This will clear all the outputs and now you can understand each statement and learn interactively.
If you have git and you know how to use it, you can also clone the repository instead of downloading a zip and extracting it. An advantage with doing it this way is that you don't need to download the whole tutorial again to get the latest version of it, all you need to do is to pull with git and run ipython notebook again.
