This course will continue the introduction to Python programming that started with Python Programming Essentials and Python Data Representations. We'll learn about reading, storing, and processing tabular data, which are common tasks. We will also teach you about CSV files and Python's support for reading and writing them. CSV files are a generic, plain text file format that allows you to exchange tabular data between different programs. These concepts and skills will help you to further extend your Python programming knowledge and allow you to process more complex data.

TOP REVIEWS FROM PYTHON DATA ANALYSIS
Excellent Lecture + good support from mentors (Patrick, the only one?). However, the final project's description is quite obscure, I have to rely heavily on owl-test.
Great class. It might not be perfect for beginners, but good for someone who has had one semester in Python programming. Thank you, everyone!
Great programming practice, especially the project for week4. I am more comfortable with lambda now. I am much more helpful to my son in Python classes.
Great Course !
Specially the project at the end uses some really powerful code, combining all that we had learnt throughout the course
