So, without consuming much time, let's jump to the introduction:- Data Structures in Pandas Python Pandas deals with 2 Data structures:- Series DataFrame Before the latest updates, Python had   3. Panel()   data structure which is used for the 3-D array. But Pandas has removed its   Panel()  and now it only has Series and DataFrame left. These data structures are built with NumPy which means they are fast.
