Description
Manage and Automate Data Analysis with Pandas in Python Today, analysts must manage data characterized by extraordinary variety, velocity, and volume. Using the open source Pandas library, you can use Python to rapidly automate and perform virtually any data analysis task, no matter how large or complex. Pandas can help you ensure the veracity of your data, visualize it for effective decision-making, and reliably reproduce analyses across multiple data sets. Pandas for Everyone, 2nd Edition, brings together practical knowledge and insight for solving real problems with Pandas, even if youre new to Python data analysis. Daniel Y. Chen introduces key concepts through simple but practical examples, incrementally building on them to solve more difficult, real-world data science problems such as using regularization to prevent data overfitting, or when to use unsupervised machine learning methods to find the underlying structure in a data set. New features to the second edition include: Extended coverage of plotting and the seaborn data visualization libraryExpanded examples and resourcesUpdated Python 3.9 code and packages coverage, including statsmodels and scikit-learn librariesOnline bonus material on geopandas, Dask, and creating interactive graphics with Altair Chen gives you a jumpstart on using Pandas with a realistic data set and covers combining data sets, handling missing data, and structuring data sets for easier analysis and visualization. He demonstrates powerful data cleaning techniques, from basic string manipulation to applying functions simultaneously across dataframes. Once your data is ready, Chen guides you through fitting models for prediction, clustering, inference, and exploration. He provides tips on performance and scalability and introduces you to the wider Python data analysis ecosystem. Work with DataFrames and Series, and import or export dataCreate plots with matplotlib, seaborn, and pandasCombine data sets and handle missing dataReshape, tidy, and clean data sets so theyre easier to work withConvert data types and manipulate text stringsApply functions to scale data manipulationsAggregate, transform, and filter large data sets with groupbyLeverage Pandas advanced date and time capabilitiesFit linear models using statsmodels and scikit-learn librariesUse generalized linear modeling to fit models with different response variablesCompare multiple models to select the "best" oneRegularize to overcome overfitting and improve performanceUse clustering in unsupervised machine learning
