Pandas中concat连接多个DataFrame

import pandas
# 读取stocks_2016和stocks_2017两个数据集，用Symbol作为行索引名
stocks_2016 = pd.read_csv('data/stocks_2016.csv', index_col='Symbol')
stocks_2017 = pd.read_csv('data/stocks_2017.csv', index_col='Symbol')
stocks_2016

	Shares	Low	High
Symbol
AAPL	80	95	110
TSLA	50	80	130
WMT	40	55	70

stocks_2017

	Shares	Low	High
Symbol
AAPL	50	120	140
GE	100	30	40
IBM	87	75	95
SLB	20	55	85

TSLA	100	100	300

将两个DataFrame放到一个列表中，用pandas的concat方法将它们连接起来 

s_list = [stocks_2016, stocks_2017]
pd.concat(s_list)

# keys参数可以给两个DataFrame命名，该标签会出现在行索引的最外层，
会生成多层索引(multiIndex)，names参数可以重命名每个索引层
pd.concat(s_list, keys=['2016', '2017'], names=['Year', 'Symbol'])

# keys参数可以给两个DataFrame命名，该标签会出现在行索引的最外层，会生成多层索引(multiIndex)，names参数可以重命名每个索引层
pd.concat(s_list, keys=['2016', '2017'], names=['Year', 'Symbol'])

# 也可以横向连接。只要将axis参数设为columns或1
pd.concat(s_list, keys=['2016', '2017'], axis='columns', names=['Year', None])

# concat函数默认使用的是外连接，会保留每个DataFrame中的所有行。也可以通过设定join参数，使用内连接：
pd.concat(s_list, join='inner', keys=['2016', '2017'], axis='columns', names=['Year', None])

append拼接DataFrame

# append是concat方法的超简化版本，append内部其实就是调用concat。pd.concat也可以
stocks_2016.append(stocks_2017)

#copy() 函数返回一个字典的浅复制。
stocks_2015 = stocks_2016.copy() #Python 字典(Dictionary) copy() 函数返回一个字典的浅复制。浅复制是指当对象的字段值被复制时，字段引用的对象不会被复制
