Hi …I am a new comer to Julia. Is there a library which does function similar to pandas. I have been struggling to read from excel spreadsheets. Thanks

Hi and welcome to Julia. You’re probably looking for: GitHub - JuliaData/DataFrames.jl: In-memory tabular data in Julia

no, that’s a wrapper, just use DataFrames.jl ffs

“Just use DataFrames” is not good advice. There is substantial functionality that Pandas has that DataFrames.jl does not and will never have. Anything related to time series for example. There is TimeSeries.jl, but it does not have support for the elaborate time handling and resampling that Pandas d…

Funny you should say that, for me one of the biggest boons of working in Julia is that I can just use DataFrames with the (imho excellent) Dates standard library for all my dated data, which was a refreshing change from the issues I always ran into when working with dates in Python - I’m the person …

Yes, datetime handling in Pandas is a complete mess. There is the Python datetime type (flexible but slow), the Pandas datetime type (with nanosecond precision - this means a very limited date range) and the possibility to use Numpy datetime types (with different precisions). And it is in some case…

I’ll try to interpret what I think @MaxHayden means: Pandas (“PANel Data AnalysiS” - a kind of time-series analysis), being originally a finance library, has tons of built-in time-series functionality: Time Series / Date functionality — pandas 0.17.1 documentation DataFrames.jl doesn’t and won’t …

Well, I think you gave actually good advice about how to solve a problem by suggesting using Dates from the standard library. My complaint was just about the nature of the response “just use X ffs” when X doesn’t solve the problem. It’s hard to find all of the relevant bits to do the thing. And “ff…

Yes. What jzr is saying is correct. Maybe I could have said it better. But it’s certainly a documentation problem when you can’t do a quick search to find the right libraries and types. Since this is what comes up on Google for it, maybe someone more knowledgeable can suggest a mix of libraries for…

[image] MaxHayden: Since this is what comes up on Google for it, maybe someone more knowledgeable can suggest a mix of libraries for doing those things or link to a good resource that does. I think upsampling can probably be done with DataFrames.leftjoin , but we can nail it down better if yo…
