Pandas: Create a new DataFrame based on existing Series and override the existing columns names

Pandas Joining and merging DataFrame: Exercise-11 with Solution

Write a Pandas program to create a new DataFrame based on existing series, using specified argument and override the existing columns names.

Sample Solution:

Python Code :

import pandas as pd
s1 = pd.Series([0, 1, 2, 3], name='col1')
s2 = pd.Series([0, 1, 2, 3])
s3 = pd.Series([0, 1, 4, 5], name='col3')
df = pd.concat([s1, s2, s3], axis=1, keys=['column1', 'column2', 'column3'])
print(df)

Sample Output:

    column1  column2  column3
0        0        0        0
1        1        1        1
2        2        2        4
3        3        3        5

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
