Python Data Wrangling and Manipulation with Pandas

See organizers’ website for details

Pandas is a Python package providing fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with ‘relational’ or ‘labeled’ data both easy and intuitive. It enables doing practical, real-world data analysis in Python.

In this workshop, we’ll work with example data and go through the various steps you might need to prepare data for analysis.

We plan to cover:

• pandas data structures

• loading data

• subsetting and filtering

• calculating summary statistics

• dealing with missing values

• merging data sets

• creating new variables

• basic plotting

• exporting data
