Course description
Python is one of the world’s most widely used object-oriented programming languages. It’s a powerful tool that can help you streamline workflows as a developer and a data scientist. In this course, join instructor George Mount to learn how to combine the power of the Python language with the data analysis and reporting tools built into Microsoft Excel.
Discover how to leverage the pandas and openpyxl libraries to inspect, filter, clean, and convert data and how to build solid reports that help businesses take action. Learn how to work with large amounts of data that would be unmanageable in Excel alone, managing and manipulating data sets like a pro.
