Answer

The info() and describe() functions in pandas are considered inspection functions because they provide valuable insights into the structure, content, and statistical summary of a DataFrame. The info() method in pandas provides basic information about a DataFrame, including the data types of each column, the number of rows, and the memory usage. It also displays the index name and type. On the other hand, the describe() method provides detailed descriptive statistics about the numerical columns in a DataFrame, including count, mean, standard deviation, minimum value, 25th percentile, median (50th percentile), 75th percentile, and maximum value.
