Pandas and Polars are libraries for the Python and Rust programming languages (respectively).

The way I moved on from Excel was to write code instead since my end goal was always data visualization and there are so many good visualization libraries that offer far more than Excel could out of the box.

It’s not for the faint of heart and you’ll have to reimplement the logic of all your macros but once you’re liberated, it’s exceptionally freeing - especially being able to handle vastly bigger datasets than Excel could handle.

Ah ok, understood. Unfortunately I'm not much of a programmer, I understand just enough of the syntax from macros to use them and make slight adjustments, not to rebuild them from scratch. So I somewhat rely on the tools that some with excel or have been developed in my company.
