Free interactive tutorials for Pandas
by Tobias Knuth April 15, 2014

April 15, 2014

Hello everyone, a friend of mine and I use Python a lot for work and for fun. We also love Wes McKinney's book about Pandas, which proved as a great help learning it. Unfortunately, there are no interactive tutorials like those that are available at Code School or codecademy for other languages and libraries. Even learnpython.org is "just" about Python itself, not about Pandas. So we decided to do it. We got the technology to implement interactive open source tutorials for Pandas as a web app. *I'm writing this mail to ask whether there is something similar in the making and whether you'd like to tell your thoughts about it. Is there anything that you would like to see? Any feature requests or possible caveats?* We'll use an interactive Python interpreter, simulate some functions and plot everything in the browser using D3. At least, that's the plan. It'll be a long-term project as this seems quite complex. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts :-) Best wishes, Tobias Knuth
