Description
In this intermediate software development skills training, Ben Finkel prepares learners to use the Python packages NumPy and Pandas to start analyzing data.
If you’re learning Python, Pandas and NumPy are among the first packages you’ll stumble across and find essential. NumPy introduces some powerful calculation libraries to your data analysis, including powerful and dimensional arrays. But you need to combine it with Pandas to be really effective. Pandas is a free open source library of data structure and data analysis tools for Python that builds on NumPy and allows you to do some really powerful data manipulation.
More details
After finishing the videos in this Data Structures with Pandas training, you'll know how to use Python packages like NumPy and Pandas to support and operate on large arrays. In this Python training, you'll gain an understanding of Pandas data structures and data analysis tools.
For anyone who manages data analysts, this software development training can be used to onboard new data analysts, curated into individual or team training plans, or as a software development reference resource.

Instructor's Courses"The best part about being a trainer is learning all of these great new technologies, and working with a community of people who are all passionate about learning, and just generally being a part of a culture that values learning the way I do. I love sitting down and working through an involved or complex topic so that I can competently speak about it on screen."
