How to Create a Symmetric Array in Python: A Fun Logic Exercise

Image
 Here's a Python program that says to write a Symmetric array transformation. A top interview question. Symmetric Array Transformation Problem: Write a Python function that transforms a given array into a symmetric array by mirroring it around its center. For example: Input: [1, 2, 3] Output: [1, 2, 3, 2, 1] Hints: Use slicing for the reverse part. Concatenate the original array with its mirrored part. Example def symmetric_array(arr):     """     Transforms the input array into a symmetric array by mirroring it around its center.     Parameters:     arr (list): The input array.     Returns:     list: The symmetric array.     """     # Mirror the array by concatenating the original with its reverse (excluding the last element to avoid duplication)     return arr + arr[-2::-1] # Example usage input_array = [1, 2, 3] symmetric_result = symmetric_array(input_array) print("Input Array:", input_arr...

How to Convert Dictionary to Dataframe: Pandas from_dict

 Pandas is a data analysis Python library.  The example shows you to convert a dictionary to a data frame. The point to note here is DataFrame will take only 2D data. So you need to supply 2D data. 


Dictionary to Data frame example


Pandas Dictionary to Dataframe


import pandas as pd

import numpy as np

data_dict = {'item1' : np.random.randn(4), 'item2' : np.random.randn(4)}

df3=pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data_dict, orient='index')

print(df3)


Output


0 1 2 3 item1 -0.109300 -0.483624 0.375838 1.248651 item2 -0.274944 -0.857318 -1.203718 -0.061941


Explanation

Using the NumPy package, created a dictionary with random values. There are two items - item 1 and item 2. The data_dict is input to the data frame. The from_dict method needs two parameters. These are data_dict and index. Here's the syntax you can refer to quickly.
