Setup

 

        Let's talk about some of the useful python packages for this let's assume you have basic knowledge of Python or You know what python is and how it works. So packages are a bunch of python code written in python to achieve a specific task. In this section, we just talked about setup and in another section, you can learn these different packages

• Pandas
• Numpy

Before this, we have to have any IDE or we can say text editors in our system to code, there are many famous IDE present for coding such as Atom, Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, Jupyter Notebook etc but I highly recommend you to use Jupyter Notebook, because it is very easy to understand and we can see output line by line which make it different. So let's Install Jupyter Notebook into our system

Installing Jupyter:

            Jupyter Notebook is a third-party library. We can install Jupyter Notebook by PIP so Please install Jupyter Notebook by executing one of the commands below in our terminal:

pip install jupyter

After a successful installation we can start Jupyter Notebook by running the command below from our command line, Make sure you are in the directory in which you want to add files and want to work before running the following command:

jupyter notebook

If it works, you will see Jupyter Notebook opened up in your default internet browser.

        Now let's install Pandas first

Installing pandas:

        So for running  pandas we have to install it. We can install it with pip from our computer or Atom/VS Code terminal/cmd just like we use to install other third-party packages. So, execute the below commands to do the installation.

pip install pandas

It will install all the dependencies required for Pandas but we need one more package that is IPython, IPython is just like the standard shell we get when we run Python, but IPython provides better printing for large text. This ability makes IPython suitable for data analysis because the program prints data in a well-structured format. We can install IPython with pip

pip install ipython

You can use any IDE for running the pandas program but I highly recommend you to install Jupyter Notebook because the file you will get at the end of this section is (.ipynb) which is Jupyter Notebook exertion but you can read this file using VS code, Sublime but you will get errors while running the program.

Don't forget to comment with your queries or questions, See you in the next section with new things to learn, so stay energetic. Bye
