Writing Efficient Code with pandas

Data scientists must be able work with large data sets efficiently and extract valuable information. When working with small amounts data, we often underestimate the speed at which code can be executed. This course will increase your Python knowledge as well as teach you how to make pandas faster by using its built-in functions. Pandas' functions are easy to use for simple tasks such as targeting entries and features. You can also apply functions to multiple entries faster than Python's standard methods. This course will teach you how to efficiently and quickly process large data sets, use functions based on feature values to apply them, and manipulate data from different groups. These techniques can be applied to real-world datasets like restaurant tips and poker hands.
