What is it

pandas is a Python package providing fast, flexible, and expressive  data structures designed to make working with “relational” or “labeled” data both easy and intuitive. It aims to be the fundamental high-level building block for doing practical, real world data analysis in Python. Additionally, it has the broader goal of becoming the most powerful and flexible open source data analysis / manipulation tool available in any language.

How to get it

Source tarballs and windows/mac/linux wheels are available on PyPI (thanks to Christoph Gohlke for the windows wheels, and to Matthew Brett for setting up the mac/linux wheels).

Conda packages are already available via the conda-forge channel (conda install pandas -c conda-forge).

It will be available on the main channel shortly.
