PyClass

Come learn the joy of data wrangling with Pandas. In short order, you’ll be able to join, twist, select, and split your data sets. You’ll leave with a full grasp as to when to wield this powerful library, strategies for dealing with funky data sets and more.

@Jared will be around the space around an hour before class to help get environments set up - but if you’re not able to make it, not to fear, we’ll have a web-based notebook that you can access to use throughout class.
