Third party libraries

One of the things that makes Python so popular is the enormous amount of third party packages that are available. We have already encountered some of them, like requests and numpy in earlier lectures. This lecture, we will explore some additional packages.

There is no fixed scenario for this lecture. Just investigate the documentation, install the packages, and try to build something with them!
