Scientific Python : Learn to Analyze Text Data using Python and Pandas

Scientific Python (Pandas)

A Pandas `series` is an array of `1D` data, similar to a `list` in Python. The Series object will have a few more data, including an `index` and a `name`. A common idea through pandas is the notion of `axis`. Because a series is one dimensional, it has a single axis which is the `index`.


The pandas Series data structure provides support for the basic four operations:
- **Create**, 
- **Read**,
- **Update**, and 
- **Delete**. 

Note that Pandas objects generally tend to behave in
an `immutable` manner. Although they are `mutable`, we don’t normally update a `series`, but rather
perform an operation that will return a new series!

We will discuss each of these operations next.
