Answers

01.
Python
 Primary Function: Python is a popular programming language used
heavily in data science for data analysis, machine learning, artificial
intelligence, and data visualization. It has powerful libraries like Pandas
(for data manipulation), NumPy (for numerical computing), scikit-learn
(for machine learning), and Matplotlib/Seaborn (for data visualization).
Tableau
 Primary Function: Tableau is a leading data visualization tool. It helps
users create interactive and shareable dashboards that turn raw data
into understandable insights without needing to write much code. It's
often used for business intelligence and reporting.

02.
Interactive Coding: You can write code and see the results
immediately, making it easy to experiment and adjust.
Visualization Support: It easily integrates with libraries like
Matplotlib and Seaborn to show charts and graphs right next to your
code.
Documentation with Markdown: You can write explanations, notes,
and formulas alongside your code using Markdown, which makes your
work easier to understand.
Easy Sharing: Jupyter Notebooks can be shared as .ipynb files or
converted to HTML/PDF, making collaboration and presentation simple.
Supports Multiple Languages: Even though it’s mainly used with
Python, it can support other languages like R and Julia through different
kernels.
Modular Workflow: You can run small chunks ("cells") of code
separately, which helps debug and develop step-by-step
