Pandas

In the wild, giant pandas adapted vertical pupils (similar to cats) that enable them to have amazing night vision. It’s useful to think of Python modules, such as Pandas, in the same context as evolutionary adaptations. Modules such as Pandas are specific augmentations to programming languages such as Python, which make completing tasks not only easier to perform but typically with more clarity and less code.
