Introduction to Pandas

• What is Pandas?
• Importance and applications.
Data Structures
• Pandas provides two primary data structures:
• - Series: 1-dimensional labeled array
• - DataFrame: 2-dimensional labeled data
structure
Example: Creating a Series and
DataFrame
• Creating a Series:
• import pandas as pd
• s = pd.Series([1, 3, 5, 7, 9])
• Creating a DataFrame:
• data = {'A': [1, 2, 3], 'B': [4, 5, 6]}
• df = pd.DataFrame(data)
DataFrame Operations
• Common operations on DataFrames:
• - Viewing data: head(), tail()
• - Selecting data: loc[], iloc[]
• - Filtering data: df[df['A'] > 1]
Example: DataFrame Operations
• Viewing data:
• df.head()
• Selecting columns and rows:
• df['A'], df.loc[0]
• Filtering data:
• df[df['A'] > 1]
Data Cleaning
• Handling missing data and duplicates:
• - Filling missing values: fillna()
• - Dropping missing values: dropna()
• - Removing duplicates: drop_duplicates()
Example: Data Cleaning
• Filling missing values:
• df.fillna(0)
• Dropping missing values:
• df.dropna()
• Removing duplicates:
• df.drop_duplicates()
Data Transformation
• Adding and modifying columns:
• - Adding a new column: df['C'] = [7, 8, 9]
• - Applying functions: df['A'].apply(lambda x:
x*2)
Example: Data Transformation
• Adding a new column:
• df['C'] = [7, 8, 9]
• Applying a lambda function:
• df['A'] = df['A'].apply(lambda x: x*2)
Data Aggregation and Grouping
• GroupBy operations and aggregation
functions:
• - Grouping data: df.groupby('A')
• - Aggregation: df.groupby('A').sum()
Example: Data Aggregation and
Grouping
• Grouping data:
• grouped = df.groupby('A')
• Applying aggregation functions:
• grouped.sum()
Merging and Joining
• Combining DataFrames:
• - Merging: pd.merge(df1, df2, on='key')
• - Joining: df1.join(df2, on='key')
Example: Merging and Joining
• Merging two DataFrames:
• merged_df = pd.merge(df1, df2, on='key')
• Joining DataFrames:
• joined_df = df1.join(df2, on='key')
