Informatics Practices Python Pandas - I
Some Facts :
A. PANDAS has derived its name from “PANel DAta System”.

B. The main author of Pandas is “Wes McKinney”.
C. It is used as Python’s library for data analysis.
D. It is an open source.
E. It offers high performance, easy to use data structure and data analysis tools.
F. In order to use Pandas we need to import by using “import pandas as pd”.
Why PANDAS?
1. To read and write in many different data formats.
2. It can calculate in all the possible ways data is organized.
3. It can easily select subsets of data from bulky data.
4. It allows you to apply operation to independent groups within the data.
5. It supports reshaping of data into different forms.
6. Using its advance time-series functionality one can predict the future values.
Pandas data structure

Data structure : It refers to specialized way of storing data so as to apply a specific type of functionality on them.
Out of the many data structure two basic data structures – Series and DataFrame are universally popular for their
dependability.
Comparison between Series and DataFrame :
Property Series DataFrame
Dimensions 1-Dimentional 2-Dimentional
Type of Homogeneous – All elements Heterogeneous – DataFrame objects can have different
Data must be of same data type. data types.
Mutability Size- Immutable: Size of a series Size – Mutable : We can drop or add the elements in an
object, once created, cannot existing dataframe object.
change.
Series Data Structure:

It represents a one dimensional array of indexed data.
It has two main components :
1. An array of actual data.
2. An associated array of indexes or data labels
The index is used to access individual data values.
Example:
Creating Series Object:
Make sure that you have imported pandas module.
import pandas as pd
To create an empty series just issue the following command:
<Series Object>=pandas.Series()
To create a non-empty Series object, you need to specify arguments for data and indexes as per following
syntax :
<Series Object>=pd.Series(data, index=idx)
data: It can be a python sequence, an ndarray, a python dictionary or a scalar value.
idx: It is a valid numpy datatype.
Series() method with arguments:

Syntax is
<Series Object> = pandas.Series(data, index=idx)
1. Creating series using List:
Ser2 = pd.Series([12,23,34,45,67])
>>> print(Ser2)
0 12
1 23
2 34
3 45
4 67
Creating a series using range() method.
>>> ser3=pd.Series(range(4))
>>> print(ser3)
00
1 1
2 2
3 3
The default index can be changed also. Following example explains :
>>> ser3.index= ['One','Two','Three','Four']
>>> print(ser3)
One 0
Two 1
Three 2
Four 3
To create a series with explicitly defined index values.
>>> ser3=pd.Series([12,23,34,45,67], index = ['A','B','C','D','E'])
>>> print(ser3)
A 12
B 23
C 34
D 45
E 67
Accessing single or multiple values based on index from Series :
>>> ser3['B']
23
>>> ser3[['A','C','D']]
A 12
C 34
D 45
>>> ser3[['B','D','A’]]
B 23
D 45
A 12
To perform indexing, slicing and accessing data from a series:
ser3 =
>>> print(ser3[1]) To extract the second value
23
>>> print(ser3[:3]) To extract the first three values
A 12
B 23
C 34
>>> print(ser3[-3:]) To extract the last three values
C 34
D 45
E 67
To create a series from a scalar or constant value:
>>> ser4 = pd.Series(25 , index = ['a','b','c','d'])
>>> print(ser4)
a 25
b 25
c 25
d 25
>>> ser5=pd.Series(25, index=[0,1,2,3,4])
>>> print(ser5)
0 25
1 25
2 25
3 25
4 25
Creating a series with range() and for loop:
>>> ser6=pd.Series(range(1,20,4), index=[x for x in 'abcde'])
>>> print(ser6)
a 1
b 5
c 9
d 13
e 17
Creating a series from two different list:
>>> rollno=[1,2,3,4,5]
>>> marks=[12,13,16,18,20]
>>> ser7=pd.Series(marks, index=rollno)
>>> print(ser7)
1 12
2 13
3 16
4 18
5 20
Creating a series from Dictionary :
>>> ser8=pd.Series({1:34,2:43,3:31,4:55})
>>> print(ser8)
1 34
2 43
3 31
4 4 55
Extracting values from a series using head() and tail() functions:

>>> print(ser8.head(2)) First two values from the series
Rollno
1 34
2 43
>>> print(ser8.tail(2)) Last two values from the series
Rollno
3 31
4 55
Extracting value using condition : Assume that we have a series ser7
>>> ser7
1 12
2 13
3 16
4 18
5 20
>>> ser7<17 Condition to extract the values below 17(Vectorised)
1 True
2 True
3 True
4 False
5 False
>>> ser7[ser7<17] Condition to extract the values below 17(Filter)
1 12
2 13
3 16
To delete an element usinf drop() method:
>>> ser7
1 12
2 13
3 16
4 18
5 20
>>> ser7.drop(2)
1 12
3 16
4 18
5 20
Creating a series with range() and for loop:
>>> ser6=pd.Series(range(1,20,4), index=[x for x in 'abcde'])

>>> print(ser6)
a 1
b 5
c 9
d 13
e 17
Creating a series from two different list:
>>> rollno=[1,2,3,4,5]
>>> marks=[12,13,16,18,20]
>>> ser7=pd.Series(marks, index=rollno)
>>> print(ser7)
1 12
2 13
3 16
4 18
5 20
Extracting values from a series using head() and tail() functions:

>>> print(ser8.head(2)) First two values from the series
Rollno
1 34
2 43
>>> print(ser8.tail(2)) Last two values from the series
Rollno
