"""
If you often use interactive IPython sessions or Jupyter Notebooks and you’re getting tired of importing the same libraries over and over, try this:

Navigate to ~/.ipython/profile_default
Create a folder called startup if it’s not already there
Add a new Python file called start.py
Put your favorite imports in this file
Launch IPython or a Jupyter Notebook and your favorite libraries will be automatically loaded every time!

df['Column Name'].unique()

# convert column to lowercase (without warning working on copy)

df.height
df['height']
