Pandas seems to be more complex at a first glance, as it simply offers so much more functionalities. The workflows you are used to do with Excel can be done with Pandas more efficiently. Pandas is a high-level coding library where all the hardcore coding stuff with dozens of coding lines are running automatically in the background. Pandas operations are typically done in one line of code! However, it is important to learn and master Pandas in a way that you understand what is going on you are aware of the pitfalls (Don´ts)you know best practices (Dos) MANAGE FINANCE DATA WITH PYTHON & PANDAS best prepares you to master new challenges and to stay ahead of your peers, fellows and competitors! Coding with Python/Pandas is one of the most in-demand skills in Finance.This course is one of the most practical courses on Udemy with 200 Coding Exercises and a Final Project.
