In this article, we will show you when we use the crosstab() and pivot_table() functions in Python Pandas. When to use crosstab or pivot_table The pivot table expects your input data to already be a DataFrame; you pass a DataFrame to the pivot table and specify the index/columns/values by passing the column names as strings. You don't need to pass a DataFrame into a cross tab because you just pass arraylike objects for index/columns/values. In general, use a pivot table if you already have a DataFrame so you don't have to create the same DataFrame twice. Use crosstab if you ... Read More

In this article, we will show you the differences between dataframe and matrices in python pandas. Both dataframes and matrices are 2-dimensional data structures. In general, dataframes can include multiple types of data (numeric, character, factor, etc) while matrices can only store one type of data. Dataframe in Python In Python, a DataFrame is a two-dimensional, tabular, mutable data structure that may store tabular data containing objects of various data types.

In this article, we will look at some examples of runtime errors in Python Programming Language Runtime Errors A runtime error in a program is one that occurs after the program has been successfully compiled. The Python interpreter will run a program if it is syntactically correct (free of syntax errors). However, if the program encounters a runtime error - a problem that was not detected when the program was parsed and is only revealed when a specific line is executed - it may exit unexpectedly during execution. When a program crashes due to a runtime error, we say ... Read More

In this tutorial, we will learn if it is a good practice to end switch with defaults in JavaScript. In JavaScript, we generally use the if or if-else statements if we need to check any conditions. Still, if we need to check multiple conditions for an expression, it becomes very complex and unorganized, so we use the switch statements for that situation. The switch statement compares the value of an expression to a series of case clauses, then executes statements after the first case clause that matches the value, and so on, until a break statement is met. If no ... Read More

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use setInterval function call in JavaScript. The setInterval() method in JavaScript evaluates an expression at intervals. It is used to perform the repetitive tasks or operations that need to be performed in a specific time interval. For example, it calls a function repeatedly in a fixed time delay to perform the task. The window interface offers this method. This method returns an interval id that uniquely identifies the interval, allowing you to remove it later by executing the clearInterval() method. Users can follow the below syntax to use the setInterval function. Syntax ... Read More
