📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to optimize the development environment by configuring Visual Studio Code settings and enhancing data manipulation capabilities in Python using pandas.

Key Activities

  • VS Code Configuration: Adjusted output display limits and scrollback settings to improve terminal usability. Disabled auto-advance in the Python extension to enhance coding efficiency. Changed the default Python interpreter and created custom keybindings for better workflow management.
  • Pandas Data Manipulation: Developed Python functions for merging DataFrames, processing and filtering data, resolving library compatibility issues, and formatting DataFrame outputs. These functions improve data handling and analysis efficiency.

Achievements

  • Successfully configured Visual Studio Code to better support Python development.
  • Enhanced pandas data manipulation capabilities through custom functions.

Pending Tasks

  • Further exploration of advanced VS Code extensions and settings to optimize development workflows.
  • Continued development of pandas functions for specific data analysis tasks.
