Python | Creating DataFrame from dict of narray/lists
As we know Pandas is all-time great tools for data analysis. One of the most important data type is dataframe. It is a 2-dimensional labeled data structure with columns of potentially different types. It is generally the most commonly used pandas object.
Pandas DataFrame can be created in multiple ways. Let’s discuss how to create Pandas dataframe using dictionary of ndarray (or lists).
Let’s try to understand it better with few examples.
Code #1:
Python3
# Python code demonstrate creating# DataFrame from dict narray / lists# By default addresses.import pandas as pd# initialise data of lists.data = {'Category':['Array', 'Stack', 'Queue'], 'Marks':[20, 21, 19]}# Create DataFramedf = pd.DataFrame(data)# Print the output.print(df ) |
Category Marks 0 Array 20 1 Stack 21 2 Queue 19
Note: To create DataFrame from dict of narray/list, all the narray must be of same length. If index is passed then the length index should be equal to the length of arrays. If no index is passed, then by default, index will be range(n) where n is the array length.
Code #2:
Python3
# Python code demonstrate creating# DataFrame from dict narray / lists# By default addresses.import pandas as pd# initialise data of lists.data = {'Category':['Array', 'Stack', 'Queue'], 'Student_1':[20, 21, 19], 'Student_2':[15, 20, 14]}# Create DataFramedf = pd.DataFrame(data)# Print the output.print(df.transpose()) |
0 1 2 Category Array Stack Queue Student_1 20 21 19 Student_2 15 20 14
Code #3: Providing index list to dataframe
Python3
# Python code demonstrate creating# DataFrame from dict narray / lists# By default addresses.import pandas as pd# initialise data of lists.data = {'Area':['Array', 'Stack', 'Queue'], 'Student_1':[20, 21, 19], 'Student_2':[15, 20, 14]}# Create DataFramedf = pd.DataFrame(data, index =['Cat_1', 'Cat_2', 'Cat_3'])# Print the output.print(df) |
Area Student_1 Student_2 Cat_1 Array 20 15 Cat_2 Stack 21 20 Cat_3 Queue 19 14
