pandas中inplace参数在很多函数中都会有,它的作用是:是否在原对象基础上进行修改
inplace = True:不创建新的对象,直接对原始对象进行修改;
inplace = False:对数据进行修改,创建并返回新的对象承载其修改结果。
默认是False,即创建新的对象进行修改,原对象不变,和深复制和浅复制有些类似。示例如下
inplace=True情况:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df=pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(4,3),columns=["A","B","C"])
data=df.drop(["A"],axis=1,inplace=True)
print(df)
print(data)
>>
B C
0 0.472730 -0.626685
1 0.065358 0.031326
2 -0.318582 1.123308
3 -0.097687 0.018820
None
inplace=False情况:
df=pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(4,3),columns=["A","B","C"])
data=df.drop(["A"],axis=1,inplace=False)
print(df)
print(data)
>>
A B C
0 -0.731578 0.226483 0.986656
1 0.075936 1.622889 1.767967
2 -1.477780 -0.164374 -1.025555
3 -0.645208 -0.847264 -0.744622
B C
0 0.226483 0.986656
1 1.622889 1.767967
2 -0.164374 -1.025555
3 -0.847264 -0.744622
另外,要注意的是,inplace的取值只有False和True,如给定0或1,会报如下错误:
ValueError: For argument "inplace" expected type bool, received type int.
