About the Programme
Polars is the new, faster, more user-friendly and more pythonic way of working with data in tables (DataFrames). It has recently seen a meteoric rise in popularity. Yi Sheng will share his real experience developing in-production scripts with this new library, after having worked with pandas for so long. He will also introduce common usage and examples of how it is faster and more pythonic than pandas.
