 Whether you're a beginner or brushing up on your skills, these are the real-world questions Python learners ask most about key libraries in data science. Let’s dive in! 🐍 🐼 Pandas: Data Manipulation Made Easy 1. How do I handle missing data in a DataFrame? df.fillna( 0 ) # Replace NaNs with 0 df.dropna() # Remove rows with NaNs df.isna(). sum () # Count missing values per column 2. How can I merge or join two DataFrames? pd.merge(df1, df2, on= 'id' , how= 'inner' ) # inner, left, right, outer 3. What is the difference between loc[] and iloc[] ? loc[] uses labels (e.g., column names) iloc[] uses integer positions df.loc[ 0 , 'name' ] # label-based df.iloc[ 0 , 1 ] # index-based 4. How do I group data and perform aggregation? df.groupby( 'category' )[ 'sales' ]. sum () 5. How can I convert a column to datetime format? df[ 'date' ] = pd.to_datetime(df[ 'date' ]) ...

Traditional data warehouse That isn’t to say that Hadoop can’t be used for structured data that is readily available in a raw format; because it can.In addition, when you consider where data should be stored, you need to understand how data is stored today and what features characterize your persistence options.  Consider your experience with storing data in a traditional data warehouse. Typically, this data goes through a lot of rigor to make it into the warehouse.  Builders and consumers of warehouses have it etched in their minds that the data they are looking at in their warehouses must shine with respect to quality; subsequently, it’s cleaned up via cleansing, enrichment, matching, glossary, metadata, master data management, modeling, and other services before it’s ready for analysis.  Obviously, this can be an expensive process. Because of that expense, it’s clear that the data that lands in the warehouse is deemed not just of high value, but it has a bro...
