Pandas Zero to Hero - Beginner's Course to Using Pandas

What is Pandas?

Pandas is a data manipulation library that is built on top of the Python programming language which allows users to easily and effectively carry out data wrangling, data manipulation and data visualisation.

What is Pandas Zero to Hero?

Pandas Zero to Hero is a beginner's tutorial to using the Pandas library. This repo contains the materials that I will use to conduct my weekly tutorial lessons on my YouTube channel.

How will the tutorial be structured?

A new tutorial will be released on a weekly basis and it will be structured such that it builds upon the knowledge from the prior weeks. I will also be importing and working with datasets from Kaggle to demonstrate the different concepts in each week's tutorial.

What do I hope to accomplish with this tutorial?

I am doing this mainly to inspire and encourage more people to use pandas in their own data analysis work. Furthermore, I want to use this tutorial as means of improving my communication skills as well as my ability to explain concepts in simple but thorough terms.
