Flexible and powerful data analysis / manipulation library for Python, providing labeled data structures similar to R data.frame objects, statistical functions, and much more

pandas is a Python package that provides fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with "relational" or "labeled" data both easy and intuitive. It aims to be the fundamental high-level building block for doing practical, real world data analysis in Python. Additionally, it has the broader goal of becoming the most powerful and flexible open source data analysis / manipulation tool available in any language. It is already well on its way towards this goal. Easy handling of missing data (represented as NaN, NA, or NaT) in floating point as well as non-floating point data Size mutability: columns can be inserted and deleted from DataFrame and higher dimensional objects Automatic and explicit data alignment: objects can be explicitly aligned to a set of labels, or the user can simply ignore the labels and let Series, DataFrame, etc. automatically align the data for you in computations Powerful, flexible group by functionality to perform split-apply-combine operations on data sets, for both aggregating and transforming data Make it easy to convert ragged, differently-indexed data in other Python and NumPy data structures into DataFrame objects Intelligent label-based slicing, fancy indexing, and subsetting of large data sets Intuitive merging and joining data sets Flexible reshaping and pivoting of data sets Hierarchical labeling of axes (possible to have multiple labels per tick) Robust IO tools for loading data from flat files (CSV and delimited), Excel files, databases, and saving/loading data from the ultrafast HDF5 format Time series-specific functionality: date range generation and frequency conversion, moving window statistics, date shifting and lagging
