Exploratory data analysis with Pandas and hvPlot on Jupyter Lab

This unit introduces the foundations of exploratory data analysis using Pandas and hvPlot in the Jupyter Lab environment. Participants learn to load and manipulate tabular datasets using Pandas, a powerful Python library for data wrangling and summarization. The unit also introduces hvPlot for generating interactive visualizations directly from dataframes, supporting rapid visual exploration and interpretation. These tools are essential for building reproducible and interpretable data workflows in computational research.
