Data Handling Using Pandas-II - Part-I

This document discusses descriptive statistics and functions in pandas such as max(), min(), count(), mean(), sum(), median(), and mode(). It explains that descriptive statistics involves summarizing and organizing data so that it can be easily understood. It then provides the syntax and usage of each pandas function to return aggregate values like maximum, minimum, number of values, arithmetic mean, addition, middle value, and most repeated value from a column or row in a dataframe.
