How to Read CSV and Select Rows in Pandas

As I mentioned in my earlier article, I will continue our series of articles on pandas by working with a broader data set in this article. This time, however, we will not create the database ourselves. We’re going to create a database out of an Excel file(CSV) that’s already on the Internet.
