Shows concrete steps: use IPython/Jupyter Notebook and pd.read_csv dtype for zip to import, inspect and export; create new columns, use apply, round values, run groupby/merge and drop_duplicates, and plot with pandas. Demonstrates handling bad rows (quintuple-zero zip), shows that keeping vs dropping those rows halves average population (about 10,000 vs 5,000), and finds 250 people in zip 33109; builds a merged, reproducible dataset in the notebook with minor live-demo hiccups but working results.
