Prepare Data for Machine Learning in Python with Pandas

Last Updated on August 15, 2020

If you are using the Python stack for studying and applying machine learning, then the library that you will want to use for data analysis and data manipulation is Pandas.

This post gives you a quick introduction to the Pandas library and point you in the right direction for getting started.

Kick-start your project with my new book Machine Learning Mastery With Python, including step-by-step tutorials and the Python source code files for all examples.

Let’s get started.

Data Analysis In Python

The Python SciPy stack is a popular for scientific computing in general. It provides powerful libraries for handing gridded data (like NumPy) and plotting (like matplotlib). Until recently, a piece that had been missing from the suite was a good library for handling data.

Data, typically does not come in a form that is ready to used. A very large part of working on a data-driven problem like machine learning is data analysis
