Let's load our libraries, we're going to load NumPy and Pandas, we're also going to load the Glob module, the Glob module lets you load multiple files.

So if you look at this code down here, we are loading these processed star.data files, there's multiple of those,

and I want to combine them into a single data frame. So this code down here will load all of the files, I've got a list comprehension inside of that,

and then we're using the pdConcat function to concatenate those along the index, essentially stacking them on top of each other.

Note that I said ignore index is true, that makes it so the index values do not get repeated. Okay, that looks like we've loaded our data.
