seaborn VS gonum

If you are doing data analysis I don't think any of the 3 pieces of software you mentioned are going to be that helpful.

I see these products as tools for data visualization and reporting i.e. presenting prepared datasets to users in a visually appealing way. They aren't as well suited for serious analytics.

I can't comment on Superset or Tableau but I am familiar with Power BI (it has been rolled out across my org), the type of statistics you can do with it are fairly rudimentary. If you need to do any thing beyond summarizing (counts, averages, min, max etc). It is not particularly easy.

For data analysis I use SAS or R. This software allows you do things like multivariate regression, timeseries forecasting, PCA, Cluster analysis etc. There is also plotting capability.

Both these products are kind of old school, I've been using them since early 2000's, the "new school" seems to be Python. Pretty much all the recent data science people in my organization use Python. Particularly Pandas and libraries like Seaborn (https://seaborn.pydata.org/).

The "power" users of Power BI in my organization tend to be finance/HR people for use cases like drill down into cost figures or Interactively presenting KPI's and other headline figures to management things like that.

It's referring to the seaborn library (https://seaborn.pydata.org/), a Python library for data visualization (built on top of matplotlib).

While it’s not perfect and it’s not ggplot2, Seaborn is definitely a big improvement over bare matplotlib. You can still use matplotlib to modify the plots it spits out if you want to but the defaults are pretty good most of the time.

Seaborn Documentation

You've done a great job presenting this. Maybe you already know, but seaborne is an extension of matplotlib that makes it pretty easy to "beautify" matplotlib charts

I'm sure that your package is great, but seaborn will soon support the interchange protocol and will work relatively seamlessly with polars. https://github.com/mwaskom/seaborn/pull/3340

But if you want to see what can be done for numeric stuff, check out gonum. Personally, I still wouldn't use Go, and I rather suspect it's still pretty easy to reach for something like what you're trying to do and not find it because Go just can't write that type sensibly, but you can at least see what is available, written by people who disagree with me about Go not being a great language for this.

Numpy functionality is largely covered by https://www.gonum.org/ but for pandas I'm not sure if there is an equivalent as widely accepted. However, you might try https://github.com/rocketlaunchr/dataframe-go which I have not tried but it looks like it covers some of what you're looking for

Math libraries. It's just gonum right now. Missing things that often require people to link C or Python libs. E.g. https://github.com/gonum/gonum/issues/354

Maybe this way you could avoid having Mul, Mul_Inplace, Mul_Into variants. Gonum mostly follows the same pattern.

How does this compare to gonum graph? https://github.com/gonum/gonum/tree/master/graph

Go is quite a bit cleaner than Python and its concurrency/parallelism primitives can be well suited to scientific workloads.

You may want to have a look at Gonum (https://www.gonum.org), and the Go HEP package developed by CERN (https://go-hep.org).

I was also surprised to see DSP and pretty sophisticated packages, although I never used them: https://awesome-go.com/science-and-data-analysis

And of course Go has Jupyter integration, it's almost like running a script thanks to its fast compilation time.

No, using CPU extensions and GPUs is a different thing than doing multitasking. There is Gonum but it is still slower than Numpy: https://github.com/gonum/gonum/issues/511
