Indexing, selecting and assigning
Getting the data you want
Once you have a DataFrame, you need to pull out the parts you care about.

df["score"] - Select rows by position with
iloc - Select rows by label or by a condition with
loc

That last line is the most useful pattern in all of pandas: filtering rows by a condition.
