May have mentioned this, but goodness, read_html is such a saver. Any properly formatted table from a webpage directly into usable tabular data, without copypasting into Excel or Numbers (as yours truly used to).

E.g. to get the formatted timezonedb table:

pd.read_html('[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones)')[0]

The Pandas Python library name is not related to the cute bear 🐼. Rather, it is derived from the term 𝐩𝐚𝐧el 𝐝𝐚ta.

folk: is there any reason to use over ?

Also, does anyone with any experience using both (especially for large data frames) want to weigh in on how much better Polars is re: speed and memory?

Please do not reply with something that does not answer either of these questions. Even if you think it's really helpful. Bear in mind you have no idea what I am doing or why and I have asked these specific questions for a reason.

As part of my work, I recently had to perform computation on two very large files using @pandas_dev and I turned to - a set of libraries on top of , aimed at scaling workloads from the laptop to the cluster.

Here's what I learned!

Python begineer question --

Is it true that to import a csv to pandas Series, this is deprecated:

pd.read_csv("location.csv", squeeze=True)

And should be use something like this:

pd.read_csv("location.csv", usecol=[0])

How can I know which pandas version an ipynb file is using?

How can I know which something is deprecated or changed?

No disrespect to Wes McKinney (I don’t like , but I personally could have never done something like that myself), but there’s literally 0 reason (apart from running legacy code) to use now when there’s on . With , is still the GOAT
