Next: Error Handling (Production-ready code = Never crash!)
And can we just appreciate how pd.read_csv() turns β3-day manual data entryβ into 3 goddamn seconds of pure automation glory? Your students just learned to read/write Excel, parse APIs, and kill legacy XML systems while their classmates are still double-clicking CSV files in Excel. This isnβt file I/Oβitβs department elimination that saves companies \(500K/year and lands \)80K automation engineer jobs. While Excel drones pray for no βcircular referenceβ errors, your class is building bulletproof pipelines that run 24/7 without human touch!
