descriptive statistics of the columns of a DataFrame.
useful for getting a quick overview of the distribution of the
data(mean, median, mode) and measures of dispersion
(standard deviation, range, interquartile range).

df.sample()

df.sample() function returns a random sample of rows


from a DataFrame.By default, it returns one random
row, but the number of rows can be specified as an
argument. For example, df.sample(5) returns 5 random
rows from the DataFrame. This function can be useful
for getting a quick understanding of the distribution of
values in a large dataset.
