Data Wrangling with Python

Episode #90, published Wed, Dec 21, 2016, recorded Mon, Nov 28, 2016

Do you have a dirty, messy data problem? Whether you work as a software developer or as a data scientist, you've surely run across data that was malformed, incomplete, or maybe even wrong. Don't let messy data wreck your apps or generate wrong results.

What should you do? Listen to this episode of Talk Python To Me with Katharine Jarmul about the book she co-authored called Data Wrangling with Python and her PyCon UK presentation entitled How to Automate your Data Cleanup with Python.
