- [Instructor] So welcome back. You've completed our first lesson on SQL, and now we're jumping into data transformation with Python and pandas, specifically the pandas library.

And this lesson is going to follow largely from the last lesson. So the structure will be very similar in that we're going to cover different methods of data transformation with Python and pandas that we just covered with SQL. And the goal is to give you really a direct comparison for how to perform the same operations in pandas that you would with SQL. And hopefully from that, my goal is for you to take away when it…
