What is Dask?
Dask is a parallel computing library for Python that scales Pandas, NumPy, and Scikit-learn to larger-than-memory datasets. It breaks data into chunks and builds a task graph that is executed lazily. Dask DataFrames mirror the Pandas API, making it easy to adapt existing code for larger datasets without switching ecosystems.
