      I would love to claim it as my own but I actually borrowed that one from PythonAnywhere! www.pythonanywhere.com/batteries_included/

    Very useful! Looking forward to the rest of the series with this data set. I was actually just doing something similar on a data set in excel where I wanted to add size groupings to companies - i.e., if company A has 5 employees, their group would be "1-10" and if company B has 18 employees, their group would be "10-20" etc. I'd be interested to see you walk through something like that with Python and Pandas. Thanks!

      Hi Matt, thanks for the comment and GREAT example use case. Let me put together a tutorial vid on that very example. Stay tuned!

      Matt, as promised video is up! Let me know how you go and if you have any more questions!

      @@MakeDataUseful Super helpful - this is exactly what I was looking for! I especially appreciated the dual approach with Python and Pandas. I like the Pandas approach as it seems like it's a bit easier to change the bins after the fact if you wanted to. Thank you again for this and all the rest of your videos - looking forward to seeing what's next!

    Awesome vid. Clear, quick, concise and to the point. But you also manage to cover all the bases (as with the possible error strategies). No one else isa doing this so you have to keep going lol. Subbed (already, sorry can't add to your total but you'll get there), liked and thanks a lot.
