***What is Pandas?
Pandas is a Python library used for
working with data sets.
It has functions for analyzing, cleaning,
exploring, and manipulating data.
The name "Pandas" has a reference to both
"Panel Data", and "Python Data Analysis"
*** Why Use Pandas?
Pandas allows us to analyze big data and
make conclusions based on statistical
theories.
Pandas can clean messy data sets, and
make them readable and relevant.
Relevant data is very important in data
science.

***What Can Pandas Do?
Pandas gives you answers about the data.
Like:
Is there a correlation between two or
more columns?
What is average value?
Max value?
Min value?
Pandas are also able to delete rows that
are not relevant, or contains wrong values,
like empty or NULL values. This is called
cleaning the data.
***Where is the Pandas Codebase?
The source code for Pandas is located at
this github repository
