Python is one of the most popular programming languages for data science and analytics. It’s used across a wide range of industries. It’s easy to learn, highly flexible, and its various libraries can expand functionality to natively perform statistical functions and plotting.

This course is a comprehensive introduction to statistical analysis using Python. You’ll start with a step-by-step guide to the fundamentals of programming in Python. You’ll learn to apply these functions to numerical data. You’ll first look at strings, lists, dictionaries, loops, functions, and data maps. After mastering these, you’ll take a deep dive through various Python libraries, including pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly. You’ll wrap up with guided projects to clean, analyze, and visualize unique datasets using these libraries.

By the end of this course, you will be proficient in data science, including data management, analysis, and visualization.

Introduction to Data Science with Python


## Task 1: Ploting the moving averages

Analyze the moving averages for these stocks in the year 2008. Then plot the rolling 30 day average against the close price for Encana and CNQ stocks for 2008.

> Hint: `pandas.DataFrame.rolling`  Provides rolling window calculations.

You can view the sample plot added below and consider the axis.
