# AGENTS.md

Flexible and powerful data analysis / manipulation library for Python, providing labeled data structures similar to R data.frame objects, statistical functions, and much more

## Setup

```
# TODO: the install command. No lockfile was found, so this could not be inferred.
```

## Commands

```
pytest         # run the test suite
ruff check .   # lint
```

## Layout

- `pandas/`    1450 source files
- `asv_bench/` 62 source files
- `scripts/`   27 source files
- `doc/`       5 source files
- `web/`       2 source files
- `ci/`        1 source file

## Conventions

- Tests live alongside the code they cover, following `pandas/tests/__init__.py`.
- CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/cache-cleanup.yml`, and keep it green.
- TODO: add the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong here.

## Gotchas

- `pandas/core/frame.py` is 681KB. It will not fit comfortably in context, so read it in parts.
- No lockfile is committed, so an install here may not match what CI produced.
