Pandas??

Animal
Pandas is an easy-to-use, fast, flexible,
and powerful open-source Python
library for working with “relational” or
“labeled” data. It aims to be the
fundamental high-level building block for
doing practical, real world data analysis in
Python by offering data structures and
operations for manipulating tables.

How to start using it?

import pandas as pd

We simply import the pandas library through the code above.

pd is simply an alias for the pandas library. We do this because we will


be utilizing this a lot.
Data Structures

Series

● is a one-dimensional
array-like object that has 1 COB
index and value just like
NumPy and is capable of 2 SOE
holding any data type.

● Reindexing
● Filtering
● Sorting
Selecting a Column

To select a column, make use of brackets


then input the column name that you want to
select. Notice that pandas returns a
Series.

You can already treat this as a series and


all calculations that we can apply to a series,
we can apply to a selected column
Typecasting a Column

Similar to a series, we can typecast a column


by using the .astype() function. To make
sure that the data type transformation is
done, we need to store the typecasted data
to the column.

Exercise

● Create two Series


○ series_a : numbers from 0 – 99 (col_1)
○ series_b : numbers from 0.0 - .99 (col_2)
■ Clue, you can divide series_a by a certain number
● Combine the two series into a DataFrame (df_exercise)
○ Column One : series_a
○ Column Two : series_b
○ Create Column Three :
■ Multiply Column One and Column Two
■ To do this, select column 1 and select column 2
■ Use the * sign to multiply the two columns
○ Column Four = Convert the datatype of column 3 from float to string
○ Sort the values from LARGEST to SMALLEST based on column 1
○ Filter with the following condition
■ Column 1 values should be greater than 30
■ AND
■ Column 2 values should be less than .85
