Python for MATLAB Users: What You Need To Know

Why migrate from MATLAB to Python?

Python has a lot of momentum. Many high profile projects use it and more are migrating to it all the time. Why? One reason is that Python is free, but more importantly, it is because Python has a thriving ecosystem of packages that allow developers to work faster and more efficiently. They can go from prototyping to production to scale on hardware ranging from a Raspberry Pi (or maybe micro controller) to a cluster, all using the same language. A large part of Python’s growth is driven by its excellent support for work in the fields of science, engineering, machine learning, and data science.

The Latest and Greatest Pandas Features (since v 0.11)

On May 28, 2014 Phillip Cloud, core contributor for the Pandas data analytics Python library, spoke at a joint meetup of the New York Quantitative Python User’s Group (NY QPUG) and the NY Finance PUG. Enthought hosted and about 60 people joined us to listen to Phillip present some of the less-well-known, but really useful features that have come out since Pandas version 0.11 and some that are coming soon. We all learned more about how to take full advantage of the Pandas Python library, and got a better sense of how excited Phillip was to discover Pandas during his graduate work.
