Week 2 and Useful Pandas Techniques

In week two of General Assembly’s Data Science Immersive course, the cohort covered basic statistic principals (such as the Central Limit Theorem, Confidence Intervals, and Z-scores), in addition to covering Pandas, Data Visualization, and sqlite3 / postgreSQL.

Instead of doing a full recap of the week (which could only be extensive), I think it would be best to go through some of the useful things I picked up with pandas. These were my solutions to problems I encountered while processing data using what I learned in class.
