Explore DataFrames in depth, and learn about Data Manipulation and Data Visualisation in Python using the pandas, matplotlib and seaborn libraries.

Important

This course takes place over multi-sessions. The dates and times are as follows:

  • Session 1: Wednesday, March 18 from 09:30 AM to 12:30 PM AEDT
  • Session 2: Thursday, March 19 from 09:30 AM to 12:30 PM AEDT


In this workshop, you will explore DataFrames in depth (using the pandas library), learn how to manipulate, explore and get insights from your data (Data Manipulation), as well as how to deal with missing values and how to combine multiple datasets. You will also explore different types of graphs and learn how to customise them using two of the most popular plotting libraries in Python, matplotlib and seaborn (Data Visualisation).

We'll cover:

  • Working with pandas DataFrames
  • Indexing, slicing and subsetting in pandas DataFrames
  • Missing data values
  • Combine multiple pandas DataFrames
  • Using the Grammar of Graphics to convert data into figures using the seaborn and matplotlib libraries
  • Configuring plot elements within seaborn and matplotlib
  • Exploring different types of plots using seaborn
