Add, subtract, multiple and divide two Pandas Series

Let us see how to perform basic arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division on 2 Pandas Series.

For all the 4 operations we will follow the basic algorithm :

1. Import the Pandas module.
2. Create 2 Pandas Series objects.
3. Perform the required arithmetic operation using the respective arithmetic operator between the 2 Series and assign the result to another Series.
4. Display the resultant Series.

Addition of 2 Series

# importing the module
import pandas as pd

# creating 2 Pandas Series
series1 = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
series2 = pd.Series([6, 7, 8, 9, 10])

# adding the 2 Series
series3 = series1 + series2

# displaying the result
print(series3)

Output :

Subtraction of 2 Series

# importing the module
import pandas as pd

# creating 2 Pandas Series
series1 = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
series2 = pd.Series([6, 7, 8, 9, 10])

# subtracting the 2 Series
series3 = series1 - series2

# displaying the result
print(series3)

Output :

Multiplication of 2 Series

# importing the module
import pandas as pd

# creating 2 Pandas Series
series1 = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
series2 = pd.Series([6, 7, 8, 9, 10])

# multiplying the 2 Series
series3 = series1 * series2

# displaying the result
print(series3)

Output :

Division of 2 Series

# importing the module
import pandas as pd

# creating 2 Pandas Series
series1 = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
series2 = pd.Series([6, 7, 8, 9, 10])

# dividing the 2 Series
series3 = series1 / series2

# displaying the result
print(series3)

Output :
