07. Packages Overview

One of the biggest reasons that Python is considered the standard language for data science is its powerful packages. NumPy , Pandas , and Matplotlib are three core packages for data analysis that we'll be learning to use in this course.

Note: This course aims to introduce these packages with a learning by doing approach as we go through the data analysis process. If you'd like full lessons on NumPy and Pandas, you can find them in lessons 2 and 3 of this free course . You can skip the first lesson, which analyzes data with pure Python.
