Modules is one of the best feature of Python. Except some core modules, you can install what you need and keep your Python setup smooth.
Python is gifted with an variety of tools to optimise the cosmetics of the data analysed. One among them is the Styler which shall be explored to its lengths & breadths in this article. We shall narrow down particularly to how these styling are transferred from Python to an Excel spreadsheet. Styler object is very […]
In this article, we make ourselves familiar with one more file type the Stata files in Python which come with several extensions(.dta,.ado,.do,.smcl, etc explained below). We also look at different methods to return a dictionary associating each variable name with the corresponding label. Understanding Stata Files Academic and research communities widely use Stata software a

To read data from fixed-width formatted text files to DataFrame, pandas have introduced a function called read_fwf().So what are fixed-width formatted text files? Fixed-width formatted text files are files where each field in a row has a fixed width or fixed number of characters. These types of files were primarily used in legacy systems for
The Groupby function of the Pandas library is used to categorize the data based on a certain condition. The Pandas data frame can be split based on criteria with the help of the groupby function. It is similar to the groupby function in SQL querying where the output is printed based on certain conditions. The
The most useful, easy to understand, and efficient open-source library tool for handling data, cleaning the data, modification, and analysis in Python is Pandas. As a result, Pandas is quite useful when working with large datasets. Pandas’ built-in function facilitates reading datasets in a variety of formats. Python users can read CSV files (Comma Separated Values files) in
ORC stands for Optimized Row Columnar storage format was introduced to store the Hive workloads efficiently. As the name suggests, the ORC format stores the data in the form of columns which enables us to perform parallel processing of data and also helps to store the data efficiently. The ORC format was initially introduced by

When you’re working with Pandas, you must have seen the axis as the argument for many functions. What is this axis? What does it mean? Why is it so important? Let’s dive deep into Pandas and understand what this axis is and how to use it. What is Pandas? Pandas is one of the most
Legend in terms of a graph or any plot provides the description of the elements inside the plot. These elements can be the entities plotted on the graph, their scales, their colors, and so on. A legend is usually a box placed at the top right or left corner of the graph, but its location

A Data Frame Index is a column in the data frame that represents the data frame as a whole. It can be specified while creating the data frame or we can even set the index after analyzing it. While we are talking about the index of a data frame, it is essential to know what

Compressing images to speed up image processing and analysis is very common nowadays. Its popularity can be attributed to reducing the irrelevancy and redundancy of the image data. To transmit data in an efficient form and to reduce the number of bits required to render an image. Storage optimization can be achieved by compressing image
