These questions cover a wide array of Python concepts and are often used to gauge a candidate's familiarity and proficiency with the language.

It's important to not just memorize answers but understand the underlying principles and be able to apply them to real-world problems.

Pandas is a single-threaded library, utilizing only one CPU core. To achieve parallelism, Dask is required.

In comparison, Polars automatically uses available CPU cores without additional setup.
