If you faced error in loading data in Exercise 1 using colab

[Kha23i]

The original code
sales = pd.read_csv( 'data/sales_data.csv', parse_dates=['Date'])
may cause error for you
then you can replace it with
sales = pd.read_csv( 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ine-rmotr-curriculum/FreeCodeCamp-Pandas-Real-Life-Example/master/data/sales_data.csv', parse_dates=['Date'])
And it worked well for me 💯

Thank you, but it keeps saying
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

anw I found another alternative

url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ine-rmotr-curriculum/FreeCodeCamp-Pandas-Real-Life-Example/master/data/sales_data.csv'
sales  = pd.read_csv(url)

@Kha23i thanks a ton, similarly I tried pulling the file from local

sales = pd.read_csv('C:/Users/xyz/Desktop/sales_data.csv', parse_dates= ['Date'])
