Pandas version checks

Documentation problem

This documentation does a good job of appealing to those with a reading/writing and visual preferred learning styles (the V and R in education theorist Neil Fleming's VARK student learning model). It even appeals to those Kinesthetic(K) learners as it is modeled like a walk-through where the reader may follow along while reading the guide and dissecting real use-cases. However, this information may be difficult for auditory(A) learners and observational learners. It also may be difficult for neurodivergent learners who have difficulty with reading comprehension and tend to miss important details in text.

Suggested fix for documentation

The addition of a video walkthrough of the '10 minutes to pandas' guide would provide another learning option for those who prefer a non-text based way of learning. This will also promote inclusivity and accessibility, as it will appeal to all learning types as well as users with disabilities.

Thanks for the issue. I think the biggest concern with this would be maintaining the video - what is the best way to keep that updated?

take, can someone clarify where exactly I should commit the video?

I agree with @WillAyd that keeping this up-to-date would be problematic.
