Python for ANY professional
You do not have to learn object-oriented (OO) software engineering and write your own OO code to use Python for analytics and data science. However, you do have to learn how to use OO code written by others (e.g., the pandas library).
The good news is that learning how to use Python objects isn’t that difficult.
To learn about Python objects, it helps to use an example – a data table. It's rare to find a professional not familiar with data tables. Data tables are everywhere - from Microsoft Excel to databases.
As with these other technologies, data tables are central to using Python for analytics and data science. This makes data tables great for flattening Python's learning curve - especially if you've never programmed before.
