Skimpy: A Richer Alternative to Pandas' Describe Method

Elegant data summary in seconds.

Pandas' describe method is pretty naive.

It hardly highlights any key information about the data.

Instead, try Skimpy.

It is a Jupyter-based tool that provides a standardized and comprehensive data summary.

By invoking a single function, you can generate the above report in seconds.

This includes:

  • data shape

  • column data types

  • column summary statistics

  • distribution chart,

  • missing stats, etc.

What's more, the summary is grouped by datatypes for faster analysis.
