# Introduction In this lab, we will explore the `DataFrame.align()` function in the Python Pandas library. The `align()` function allows us to align two DataFrames on their axes using different join methods like outer, inner, left, and right. This is useful when we want to synchronize data between two DataFrames or between a DataFrame and a Series. ## VM Tips After the VM startup is done, click the top left corner to switch to the **Notebook** tab to access Jupyter Notebook for practice. Sometimes, you may need to wait a few seconds for Jupyter Notebook to finish loading. The validation of operations cannot be automated because of limitations in Jupyter Notebook. If you face issues during learning, feel free to ask Labby. Provide feedback after the session, and we will promptly resolve the problem for you.
