Polars as an alternative to Pandas #282

Closed eglerean closed 2 weeks ago

eglerean commented 4 months ago

Polars is a rust based alternative to Pandas. I could include a note box in the materials for those who want to try it. Do you think this is a good idea?

+1 for adding a note that it exists so that people can explore it.
