Summary

This chapter covered the basics of loading data from database, disk, and web sources. It also covered basic SQL queries and pandas' access and search functions. The last sections of the chapter introduced common types of plots using Seaborn. You should be able to transfer these basic code examples to many of your analysis projects for data mining. The examples were chosen to demonstrate how to use these libraries, so if your specific need or requirement is not covered, you should be able to replace the method calls with ease, simply by looking up the syntax on the library's website. The next chapter will cover data wrangling and cleaning up data in order to prepare it for analysis.
