In the previous article, we talked about Pandas Series, working with real world data and handling missing values in data. Although series are very useful but most real world datasets contain multiple rows and columns and that’s why Dataframes are used much more than series. In this post, we’ll talk about dataframe and some operations that we can do on dataframe objects.

在上一篇文章中,我们讨论了Pandas系列,它使用现实世界的数据并处理数据中的缺失值。 尽管序列非常有用,但是大多数现实世界的数据集都包含多个行和列,这就是为什么使用数据框比序列更多的原因。 在本文中,我们将讨论数据框以及我们可以对数据框对象执行的一些操作。

什么是DataFrame? (What is a DataFrame?)

As we saw in the previous post, A Series is a container of scalars,A DataFrame is a container for Series. It’s a dictionary like data structure for Series. A DataFrame is similar to a two-dimensional hetrogeneous tabular data(SQL table). A DataFrame is created using many different types of data such as dictionary of Series, dictionary of ndarrays/lists, a list of dictionary, etc. We’ll look at some of these methods to create a DataFrame object and then we’ll see some operations that we can apply on a DataFrame object to manipulate the data.

正如我们在上一篇文章中看到的,A Series是标量的容器,DataFrame是Series的容器。 这是一个字典,类似于Series的数据结构。 DataFrame类似于二维异构表格数据(SQL表)。 DataFrame是使用许多不同类型的数据创建的,例如Series字典,ndarrays / lists字典,字典列表等。我们将研究其中的一些方法来创建DataFrame对象,然后再看一些我们可以应用到DataFrame对象上的操作来操纵数据。

使用Series字典的DataFrame (DataFrame using dictionary of Series)

In[1]:
d = {
'col1' : pd.Series([1,2,3], index = ["row1", "row2", "row3"]),
'col2' : pd.Series([4,5,6], index = ["row1", "row2", "row3"])
} df = pd.DataFrame(d)Out[1]:
col1 col2
row1 1 4
row2 2 5
row3 3 6

As shown in above code, the keys of dict of Series becomes column names of the DataFrame and the index of the Series becomes the row name and all the data gets mapped by the row name i.e.,order of the index in the Series doesn’t matter.

如上面的代码所示,Series的dict键成为DataFrame的列名,Series的索引成为行名,并且所有数据都按行名映射,即Series中索引的顺序不物。

使用ndarrays / list的DataFrame (DataFrame using ndarrays/lists)

In[2]:
d = {
'one' : [1.,2.,3.],
'two' : [4.,5.,6.]
} df = pd.DataFrame(d)Out[2]:
one two
0 1.0 4.0
1 2.0 5.0
2 3.0 6.0

As shown in the above code, when we use ndarrays/lists, if we don’t pass the index then the range(n) becomes the index of the DataFrame.And while using the ndarray to create a DataFrame, the length of these arrays must be same and if we pass an explicit index then the length of this index must also be of same length as the length of the arrays.

如上面的代码所示,当我们使用ndarrays / lists时,如果不传递索引,则range(n)将成为DataFrame的索引。当使用ndarray创建DataFrame时,这些数组的长度必须相同,并且如果我们通过显式索引,则该索引的长度也必须与数组的长度相同。

使用字典列表的DataFrame (DataFrame using list of dictionaries)

In[3]:
d = [
{'one': 1, 'two' : 2, 'three': 3},
{'one': 10, 'two': 20, 'three': 30, 'four': 40}
] df = pd.DataFrame(d)Out[3]:
one two three four
0 1 2 3 NaN
1 10 20 30 40.0
In[4]:
df = pd.DataFrame(d, index=["first", "second"])Out[4]: one two three four
first 1 2 3 NaN
second 10 20 30 40.0

And finally, as described above we can create a DataFrame object using a list of dictionary and we can provide an explicit index in this method,too.

最后,如上所述,我们可以使用字典列表创建DataFrame对象,并且也可以在此方法中提供显式索引。

Although learning to create a DataFrame object using these methods is necessary but in real world, we won’t be using these methods to create a DataFrame but we’ll be using external data files to load data and manipulate that data. So, let’s take a look how to load a csv file and create a DataFrame.In the previous post, we worked with the Nifty50 data to demonstrate how Series works and similarly in this post, we’ll load Nifty50 2018 data, but in this dataset we have data of Open, Close, High and Low value of Nifty50. First let’s see what this dataset looks like and then we’ll load it into a DataFrame.

尽管学习使用这些方法创建DataFrame对象是必要的,但在现实世界中,我们不会使用这些方法来创建DataFrame,而是将使用外部数据文件加载数据并操纵该数据。 因此,让我们看一下如何加载一个csv文件并创建一个DataFrame。在上一篇文章中,我们使用Nifty50数据来演示Series的工作原理,与此类似,在本文中,我们将加载Nifty50 2018数据,但是在本文中在数据集中,我们具有Nifty50的开盘价,收盘价,高价和低价的数据。 首先,让我们看看该数据集的外观,然后将其加载到DataFrame中。

As shown above, we have loaded the dataset and created a DataFrame called df and looking at the data, we can see that we can set the index of our DataFrame to the Date column and in the second cell we did that by providing the index_col parameter in the read_csv method.

如上所示,我们已经加载了数据集并创建了一个名为df的DataFrame并查看数据,我们可以看到可以将DataFrame的索引设置为Date列,在第二个单元格中,我们通过提供index_col参数来完成此操作在read_csv方法中。

There are many more parameters available in the read_csv method such as usecols using which we can deliberately ask the pandas to only load provided columns, na_values to provide explicit values that pandas should identify as null values and so on and so forth. Read more about all the parameters in pandas documentation.

read_csv方法中还有许多可用的参数,例如usecols ,我们可以使用这些参数故意要求熊猫仅加载提供的列,使用na_values提供熊猫应将其标识为空值的显式值,依此类推。 在pandas 文档中阅读有关所有参数的更多信息。

Now, let’s look at some of the basic operations that we can perform on the dataframe object in order to learn more about our data.

现在,让我们看一下可以对dataframe对象执行的一些基本操作,以了解有关数据的更多信息。

# List of columns
df.columnsOut[9]:
Index(['Open', 'High', 'Low', 'Close'], dtype='object')In[10]:
# Check if a DataFrame is empty or not
df.emptyOut[10]:
False

It’s very crucial to know data types of all the columns because sometimes due to corrupt data or missing data, pandas may identify numeric data as ‘object’ data-type which isn’t desired as numeric operations on the ‘object’ type of data is costlier in terms of time than on float64 or int64 i.e numeric datatypes.

了解所有列的数据类型非常关键,因为有时由于损坏的数据或缺少的数据,大熊猫可能会将数字数据标识为“对象”数据类型,这是不希望的,因为对“对象”类型的数据进行数字运算是在时间上比在float64int64上更昂贵,即数值数据类型。

In[11]:
# Datatypes of all the columns
df.dtypesOut[11]:
Open float64
High float64
Low float64
Close float64
dtype: object

We can use iloc and loc to index and get the particular data from our dataframe.

我们可以使用iloc和loc进行索引并从数据框中获取特定数据。

In[12]:
# Indexing using implicit index
df.iloc[0]Out[12]:
Open 10913.20
High 10923.55
Low 10853.20
Close 10862.55

# Indexing using explicit index
df.loc["01 Jan 2018"]Out[13]:

High 10537.85
Low 10423.10
Close 10435.55
Name: 01 Jan 2018, dtype: float64

We can also use both row and column to index and get specific cell from our dataframe.

我们还可以使用行和列来索引并从数据框中获取特定的单元格。

In[14]:
# Indexing using both the axes(rows and columns)
df.loc["01 Jan 2018", "High"]Out[14]:
10537.85

We can also perform all the math operations on a dataframe object same as we did on series.

我们也可以像处理序列一样对数据框对象执行所有数学运算。

We can also aggregate the data using the agg method. For instance, we can get the mean and median values from all the columns in our data using this method as show below.

我们还可以使用agg方法汇总数据。 例如,可以使用此方法从数据中所有列获取平均值和中值,如下所示。

In[16]:
# Aggregate one or more operations
df.agg(["mean", "median"])Out[16]:
Open High Low Close
mean 10758.260366 10801.753252 10695.351423 10749.392276
median 10704.100000 10749.850000 10638.100000 10693.000000

However, pandas provide a more convenient method to get a lot more than just minimum and maximum values across all the columns in our data. And that method is describe. As the name suggests, it describes our dataframe by applying mathematical and statistical operations across all the columns.

但是,熊猫提供了一种更便捷的方法,不仅可以在我们数据的所有列中获得最大值和最小值。 并且describe该方法。 顾名思义,它通过在所有列上应用数学和统计运算来描述我们的数据框。

In[17]:

And to get the name, data types and number of non-null values in each columns, pandas provide info method.

为了获取每列中的名称,数据类型和非空值的数量,pandas提供了info方法。

In[18]:
df.info()Out[18]:

We are working with a small data with less than 300 rows and thus, we can work with all the rows but when we have tens or hundreds of thousand rows in our data, it’s very difficult to work with such huge number of data. In statistics, ‘sampling’ is a technique that solves this problem. Sampling means to choose a small amount of data from the whole dataset such that the sampling dataset contains somewhat similar features in terms of diversity as that of the whole dataset. Now, it’s almost impossible to manually select such peculiar rows but as always, pandas comes to our rescue with the sample method.

我们正在处理少于300行的小型数据,因此,我们可以处理所有行,但是当我们的数据中有成千上万的行时,处理如此大量的数据非常困难。 在统计中,“采样”是一种解决此问题的技术。 抽样是指从整个数据集中选择少量数据,以使抽样数据集在多样性方面包含与整个数据集相似的特征。 现在,几乎不可能手动选择这种特殊的行,但是与往常一样,大熊猫通过sample方法来帮助我们。

But, executing this method produces different results everytime and that may be unacceptable in some cases. But that can be solved by providing random_state parameter in the sample method to reproduce same result everytime.

但是,每次执行此方法都会产生不同的结果,在某些情况下可能是不可接受的。 但这可以通过在sample方法中提供random_state参数来每次重现相同的结果来解决。

As shown above, we can perform many operations on the DataFrame object to get information of the DataFrame and from the DataFrame. These are just basic operations that we can perform on the DataFrame object, there are many more interesting methods and operations that we can perform on the DataFrame object such as pivot , merge , join and many more. Also, in this given dataset, we have time as the index of our DataFrame i.e this is the TimeSeries dataset and pandas also provide many methods to manipulate the TimeSeries data such as rolling_window.

如上所示,我们可以对DataFrame对象执行许多操作,以获取DataFrame的信息以及从DataFrame获取信息。 这些只是基本的操作,我们可以将数据帧对象执行,还有很多更有趣的方法和操作,我们可以如数据框对象进行pivotmergejoin等等。 同样,在给定的数据集中,我们以时间作为DataFrame的索引,即,这是TimeSeries数据集,而pandas也提供了许多方法来操纵TimeSeries数据,例如rolling_window

That will be all for this post. In the next post we’ll look at some of these methods and we’ll perform 5 analysis tasks using these methods. Till then, you can take a look at the pandas documentation and find more information about DataFrame objects and the methods that can be applied on the DataFrame object.

这就是这篇文章的全部内容。 在下一篇文章中,我们将介绍其中一些方法,并使用这些方法执行5个分析任务。 到那时,您可以看一下pandas文档 ,找到有关DataFrame对象以及可应用于DataFrame对象的方法的更多信息。
