You will also explore different machine learning techniques and statistics that enable you to build powerful predictive models.By the end of this Learning Path, you will have the perfect foundation to take your data mining skills to the next level and set yourself on the path to become a sought-after data science professional.This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:• Statistics for Machine Learning by Pratap Dangeti• Matplotlib 2.x By Example by Allen Yu, Claire Chung, Aldrin Yim• Pandas Cookbook by Theodore Petrou

Pandas 1.x Cookbook. Practical recipes for scientific computing, time series analysis, and exploratory data analysis using Python - Second Edition

Matt Harrison, Theodore Petrou

The pandas library is massive, and it's common for frequent users to be unaware of many of its more impressive features. The official pandas documentation, while thorough, does not contain many useful examples of how to piece together multiple commands as one would do during an actual analysis. This book guides you, as if you were looking over the shoulder of an expert, through situations that you are highly likely to encounter.This new updated and revised edition provides you with unique, idiomatic, and fun recipes for both fundamental and advanced data manipulation tasks with pandas. Some recipes focus on achieving a deeper understanding of basic principles, or comparing and contrasting two similar operations. Other recipes will dive deep into a particular dataset, uncovering new and unexpected insights along the way. Many advanced recipes combine several different features across the pandas library to generate results.
