speed-comparison VS Pandas

For example, Java runs on the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) instead of running directly on the hardware, and it also has a garbage collector to handle memory management. Running on a virtual machine means your code is more abstracted: you only have to worry about the JVM and not about the platform you’re running on (since the JVM is the platform), and it’s more portable since your code can go on anything that runs the JVM. But running the JVM as an intermediate layer takes more computing power and so does running garbage collection, meaning that you experience a performance penalty. Here’s one benchmark I could find comparing the use of different programming languages to compute pi, in which Java took about 3x as long as C to complete the same task

Or you've got the speed comparisons (https://github.com/niklas-heer/speed-comparison) -- Python is probably something like 10% the speed of C/C++ (although, like I said, 99% of the time that's comparable to premature optimization).

Looks like a PR was merged yesterday to make the code more simd friendly https://github.com/niklas-heer/speed-comparison/pull/52

Sure, they could have chosen Python. But I doubt the language differences account for even a noticeable percentage of the slowness of Brew.

In data analysis, managing the structure and layout of data before analyzing them is crucial. Python offers versatile tools to manipulate data, including the often-used Pandas reset_index() method.

Dash is a Python framework that enables you to build interactive frontend applications without writing a single line of Javascript. Internally and in projects we like to use it in order to build a quick proof of concept for data driven applications because of the nice integration with Plotly and pandas. For this post, I'm going to assume that you're already familiar with Dash and won't explain that part in detail. Instead, we'll focus on what's necessary to make it run serverless.

there is pull request to integrate in both pydantic extra types and into pandas cose [1]

Last year I worked through the challenges using VisiData, Datasette, and Pandas. I walked through my thought process and solutions in a series of posts.

pandas: A library for data analysis in Python

Data analysis involves scrutinizing datasets for class imbalances or protected features and understanding their correlations and representations. A classical tool like pandas would be my obvious choice for most of the analysis, and I would use OpenCV or Scikit-Image for image-related tasks.

Pandas, a powerful data manipulation library in Python, has become an essential tool for data scientists and analysts. One of its key functions is read_csv(), which allows users to read data from CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files into a Pandas DataFrame. In this tutorial, brought to you by CodesWithPankaj.com, we will explore the intricacies of read_csv() with clear examples to help you harness its full potential.

So, what I'd like to do is write a documentation package in Python to recreate what I've lost. I plan to build upon the fantastic python-docx and docxtpl packages, and I'll probably rely on pandas from much of the tabular stuff. Here are the features I intend to include:

Weirdly most of my time spent with data analysis was in the C layers in pandas.
