Reshaping Data
Arithmetic operations
In pandas, you can perform arithmetic operations on columns: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. For example:
1data['column1'] = data['column2'] + data['column3']2data['column1'] = data['column2'] - data['column3']3data['column1'] = data['column2'] * data['column3']4data['column1'] = data['column2'] / data['column3']
Selective Value Change
If a condition is not satisfied by the first parameter, then the value is replaced by the second parameter
1data['column'].where(s > control_value, default_value)
Renaming Columns
One part of this process is naming columns. This is what the rename()
method is for.
