Best Python packages to generate fake data

Welcome back! One of my favorite things to do with Python is data processing, one of the biggest pitfalls with this is actually getting some data. You can always download a dataset online but what if there were some packages that can actually generate data for us? Well, there actually are! Let’s take a look at some of the best packages that can generate fake data for us! I did find these specific packages from the massive list of Python packages I wrote about the other day, check out that full list below:

Let’s get started!

Faker

Starting off we have faker, this is a package that helps you generate fake data, if you’ve used PHP Faker, Perl Faker or Ruby Faker it’s essentially almost the same thing, check out their full page below:
