Technical requirements
We extensively use the Pandas library, a popular and useful Python library for working with DataFrames and series. Pandas offers numerous functions to analyze, summarize, explore, normalize, and manipulate them. Series are one-dimensional array-like objects, and DataFrames are two-dimensional table structures with rows and columns. We use Pandas throughout this book’s exercises to perform the aforementioned activities.
If you haven’t installed Pandas yet, you can do so with the following code snippet:
pip install pandas.
The documentation for Pandas is available at https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/.

The documentation for both libraries can be found at https://seaborn.pydata.org/ and https://matplotlib...
