The Python ETL with petl Literacy (Beginner Level) benchmark measures your ability to process data belonging to various file formats, connect to a database, and perform basic Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) tasks using petl. You will be evaluated on your ability to perform fundamental transform operations on numbers, strings, and tables using petl. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to perform basic data transformations with petl.
