# DS course Python for data analysis, December 2022
## README first
------------- *do not change this section* -------------
For each of the following sections/questions, add your answer to the list. In case your answer is already enlisted by someone else, do NOT add the answer as a new item, but provide a `*` sign before the answer.
As an example, suppose the question: *What's your favorite Simpson character*? and the current answers are:
```
* Lisa
* Bart
```
and your answer would be *Bart*; the result after your edit will be:
```
* Lisa
** Bart
```
if your answer would be *Homer* instead; the result after your edit will be:
```
* Bart
* Lisa
* Homer
```
