pandas is the utility belt for data analysts using python. The package centers around the pandas DataFrame, a two-dimensional data structure with indexable rows and columns. It has effectively taken the best parts of Base R, R packages like plyr and reshape2 and consolidated them into a single library. It has lots of features (see library highlights). pandas gets its name from panel data, an econometrics term for multidimensional structured datasets (McKinney 5., 2013)
