Pandas Data Frame is a two-dimensional data structure, i.e., data is aligned in a tabular fashion in rows and columns. It can be created using python dict, list, and series etc. In this article, we will see how to add a new column to an existing data frame.So first let's create a data frame using pandas series. In the below example we are converting a pandas series to a Data Frame of one column, giving it a column name Month_no.Exampleimport pandas as pd s = pd.Series([6, 8, 3, 1, 12]) df = pd.DataFrame(s, columns=['Month_No']) print (df)OutputRunning the above code gives ...

Python dictionaries are an unordered collection of key value pairs. In this tutorial we will see how we can add new key value pairs to an already defined dictionary. Below are the two approaches which we can use.Assigning a new key as subscriptWe add a new element to the dictionary by using a new key as a subscript and assigning it a value.ExampleCountryCodeDict = {"India": 91, "UK" : 44 , "USA" : 1} print(CountryCodeDict) CountryCodeDict["Spain"]= 34 print "After adding" print(CountryCodeDict)OutputRunning the above code gives us the following result −{'India': 91, 'USA': 1, 'UK': 44} After adding {'Spain': 34, 'India': 91, ...

As an object oriented programming language python stresses on objects. Classes are the blueprint from which the objects are created. Each class in python can have many attributes including a function as an attribute.Accessing the attributes of a classTo check the attributes of a class and also to manipulate those attributes, we use many python in-built methods as shown below.getattr() − A python method used to access the attribute of a class.hasattr()  − A python method used to verify the presence of an attribute in a class.setattr() − A python method used to set an additional attribute in a class.The below ...

Pandas series is a one-dimensional labeled array capable of holding data of any type (integer, string, float, python objects, etc.). The elements of a pandas series can be accessed using various methods.Let's first create a pandas series and then access it's elements.Creating Pandas SeriesA panadas series is created by supplying data in various forms like ndarray, list, constants and the index values which must be unique and hashable. An example is given below.Exampleimport pandas as pd s = pd.Series([11, 8, 6, 14, 25], index = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']) print sOutputRunning the above code gives us the following result ...

Many times when we create python code we find that we need to access code from another python file or package. This is when you need to import that other python file or package into your current code. So the straight forward way to achieve this is just written the below statement at the top of your current python program.import package_name or module_name or from pacakge_name import module_name/object_nameWhen the above statement is parsed the interpreter does the following.The interpreter will look for names in the cache of all modules that have already been imported previously. The name of this cache ... Read More

Ordering of data elements in a specific order is a frequently needed operation. To sort elements in an array, python uses the functions named sorted() and array.sort().sorted(array)This function returns a sorted array without modifying the original array.a = [9, 5, 3, 1, 12, 6] b = sorted([9, 5, 3, 1, 12, 6]) print "Sorted Array :", print (b) print "Original Array :", print (a)Running the above code gives us the following result −Sorted Array : [1, 3, 5, 6, 9, 12] Original Array : [9, 5, 3, 1, 12, 6]list.sort()The sort function returns a sorted array by doing in-place modification ...

Python does not require a main function to start execution like many other programming languages. Instead, it uses a special built-in variable called __name__ to determine how a Python script is being executed (directly or, is it imported as a module into another script). In this article, we will learn about the __name__ variable in Python. Understanding the __name__ Variable The __name__ variable is a built-in variable that holds the name of the current module. When you run a script directly, Python sets __name__ to __main__. If the same script is imported into another file as a module, __name__ ... Read More

In this article, we will learn about how to implement iterators and their effective implementation in Python 3.x. Or earlier. Let’ s take a look at various methods available in python which implements iterators.Type 1 − Implementation Of While Loop With Known LengthExample Code Live Demogenre = ("Python", "C", "C++", "Java") print("The topic available on Tutorial's Point are:") i = 0 while (i < len(genre)): print (genre[i]) i += 1ExplanationDue to its less compact structure, this method is not favored. Error Handling is also difficult in this case . Large-scale programs or designs doesn’t use ... Read More

In this article, we will learn about Stack & Queue structures in Python 3.x. Or earlier. Here we will discuss the working and modification within these data structures −This includes −Insertion operation (Push, Enqueue)Deletion operation (Pop, Dequeue)Display / Traversing OperationPrerequisites: List & List OperationsRelated Data Structure: List ManipulationRelated ImagesStackIn stacks, objects are stored one over another, and these objects get removed in the reverse order of the arrival i.e. LIFO concept is followed. LIFO means Last in First Out type arrangement is followed in the Stack data structure.Operations on a Stack −Addition / Appending of Element: This increases the stack ... Read More

In this article, we will learn how to determine whether a string is “pangram” or not in Python 3.x. Or earlier. A pangram string contains every letter in the list of English language alphabets . Let us look at the illustration below −Provided Input: str = 'This is the python blog on Tutorial point' Desired Output: No Provided Input : str='I want to contribute to a 'dxyzwuvghlkfmq' open source project' Desired Output: YesBy definition, a perfect pangram includes every letter of the ‘26 English alphabets’ exactly once. This tutorial doesn’t include the concept of ‘perfect pangram’.Now Let’s look at the ... Read More
