Introduction to Python

What is Python?
Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language.
Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of
significant indentation. Its language constructs and object-
oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical
code for small- and large-scale projects.

Guido Van Rossum , a Dutch Programmer developed Python


programming language in early 1990s. He began working on
Python in the late 1980s as a successor to the ABC programming
language and first released it in 1991 as Python 0.9.0.[33] Python
2.0 was released in 2000 and introduced new features.
Python Library: Pandas
[PANEL DATA SYSTEM]

It is the most famous Python package for Data Science which


offers powerful and flexible data structures that make data
analysis and manipulation easy.

Pandas was developed by Wes Mckinney.

The term Pandas is derived from Panel Data System which is an


ecometric term for multidimensional structured data set.

NumPy and Matplotlib are the best package for Data Analysis &
Data Visualization.

data structures in
Pandas
❖ Series: It is a one-dimensional data structure storing
homogeneous (same type) mutable data.
❖ DataFrame: It is a two-dimensional data structure
storing heterogeneous (different type)
mutable data.
❖ Panel: It is a three-dimensional [3D] way of storing
others.
