What is Pandas?
Pandas is a powerful and flexible
open-source data analysis and
manipulation library for Python.

Importance and
Use-Cases
Pandas is widely used in data science and analytics for its
ability to handle large datasets and perform various
operations on them. It is commonly used in tasks such as
data cleaning, data transformation, and data exploration.
Some real-life applications of Pandas include data analysis
for financial forecasting, customer segmentation for
marketing campaigns, and data preprocessing for machine
learning models.
