Pandas

`Pandas <http://pandas.pydata.org/>`_ is data manipulation library
`Pandas <http://pandas.pydata.org/>`_ is a data manipulation library
based on NumPy which provides many useful functions for accessing,
indexing, merging, and grouping data easily. The main data structure (DataFrame)
is close to what could be found in the R statistical package; that is,
heterogeneous data tables with name indexing, time series operations, and
auto-alignment of data.
xarray
------
`xarray <http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/>`_ is similar to Pandas, but it
is intended for wrapping multidimensional scientific data. By labelling the
data with dimensions, coordinates, and attributes, it makes complex
multidimensional operations clearer and more intuitive. It also wraps
matplotlib for quick plotting, and can apply most operations in parallel using
`dask <http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/dask.html>`_.
