Python | Pandas Series.axes

Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier.

Pandas series is a One-dimensional ndarray with axis labels. The labels need not be unique but must be a hashable type. The object supports both integer- and label-based indexing and provides a host of methods for performing operations involving the index.

Pandas Series.axes attribute returns a list of row axis labels of the given Series object.

Syntax:Series.axes

Parameter : None

Returns : list of row axis labels

Example #1: Use Series.axes attribute to return the row axis labels of the given Series object.

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series(['New York', 'Chicago', 'Toronto', 'Lisbon'])

# Creating the row axis labels
sr.index = ['City 1', 'City 2', 'City 3', 'City 4']

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output :

Now we will use Series.axes attribute to return a list of row axis labels for the given Series object.

# return the element at the first position
sr.axes

Output :

As we can see in the output, the Series.axes attribute has returned a list containing the labels of the row axes for the given Series object.

Example #2 : Use Series.axes attribute to return the row axis labels of the given Series object.

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series(['1/1/2018', '2/1/2018', '3/1/2018', '4/1/2018'])

# Creating the row axis labels
sr.index = ['Day 1', 'Day 2', 'Day 3', 'Day 4']

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output :

Now we will use Series.axes attribute to return a list of row axis labels for the given Series object.

# return the element at the first position
sr.axes

Output :

As we can see in the output, the Series.axes attribute has returned a list containing the labels of the row axes for the given Series object.
