 Whether you're a beginner or brushing up on your skills, these are the real-world questions Python learners ask most about key libraries in data science. Let’s dive in! 🐍 🐼 Pandas: Data Manipulation Made Easy 1. How do I handle missing data in a DataFrame? df.fillna( 0 ) # Replace NaNs with 0 df.dropna() # Remove rows with NaNs df.isna(). sum () # Count missing values per column 2. How can I merge or join two DataFrames? pd.merge(df1, df2, on= 'id' , how= 'inner' ) # inner, left, right, outer 3. What is the difference between loc[] and iloc[] ? loc[] uses labels (e.g., column names) iloc[] uses integer positions df.loc[ 0 , 'name' ] # label-based df.iloc[ 0 , 1 ] # index-based 4. How do I group data and perform aggregation? df.groupby( 'category' )[ 'sales' ]. sum () 5. How can I convert a column to datetime format? df[ 'date' ] = pd.to_datetime(df[ 'date' ]) ...

How to use Pandas Series Method top ideas

Here is an example of how to use a Series constructor in Pandas. A one-dimensional array capable of holding any data type (integers, strings, floating-point numbers, Python objects, etc.) is called a Series object in pandas.

Sample DataFrame




Single dimension data


Below is the single dimension data of Index and Value.


 Index Value
 1 10           
 2 40
 3 01
 4 99

Having single value for an index is called Single dimensional data. On the other hand, when one index has multiple values, it is called multi-dimensional array.  

Below is the example for Multi-dimensional array. 

a = (1, (10,20))
mySeries = pd.Series(data, index=index)
Here, pd is a Pandas object. The data and index are two arguments. The data refers to a Python dictionary of "ndarray"  and index is index of data.

Generating DataFrame from single dimension data

The below example shows, how to construct single dimension data (Values and Index).

>>>mySeries = pd.Series([10,20,30], index=[1,2, 'a'])

Special Notes: In the above index list the 'a' represents alpha type.

Once mySeries object created, you can verify Values and Index. Do follow the steps in the screen.
