## :1234: Learning data science and analytics

Teachers and professors have primarily leveraged Quadratic as a way to teach their students complex concepts more intuitively. 

Quadratic combines a code editor with a spreadsheet, allowing students to visualize the results of their code in real-time, without worrying about setting up complex environments, installing libraries, versioning, or other complex issues. Students can learn how to do modern analytics in an environment that is optimized for doing so.

Aside from learning how to code and doing modern analytics, students also get exposure to spreadsheets in a modern and fun way. Students groan at using more traditional spreadsheets; Quadratic is a spreadsheet that people love to use, one that just works, is performant, and is built like a modern application should be built. 

## :snake: Python

Quadratic has been built to be the best spreadsheet for developers, which means a focus on building a great developer experience. Quadratic's editor is built on Monaco (the underpinning of VS Code). 

Students don't need to setup new environments or manage complex Git operations. Packages are automatically installed and importable. 

Quadratic is one of the best interfaces for teaching students how to code.
