combine two Dataframes through pandas - pandas

the question is a little bit confused....Maybe my english is not good.
1.The data file for the second school is ms_data.csv. Load the data like you loaded the first data file. Then, create a new DataFrame that is a combination of the first two.
df = pd.read_csv('gp_data.csv',sep= ";",index_col= "student_id")
df1 = pd.read_csv('ms_data.csv')
2.Using concat, combine the first and last five rows of the DataFrame. Print the result.
df_row_concat = pd.concat([df, df1])
print(df_row_conca).head(0)
print(df_row_conca).tail(5)
My question is. what is the mean of "first two"?????

Compile a count of similar rows in a Pandas Dataframe based on multiple column values

I have two Dataframes, one containing my data read in from a CSV file and another that has the data grouped by all of the columns but the last and reindexed to contain a column for the count of the size of the groups.
df_k1 = pd.read_csv(filename, sep=';')
columns_for_groups = list(df_k1.columns)[:-1]
k1_grouped = df_k1.groupby(columns_for_groups).size().reset_index(name="Count")
I need to create a series such that every row(i) in the series corresponds to row(i) in my original Dataframe but the contents of the series need to be the size of the group that the row belongs to in the grouped Dataframe. I currently have this, and it works for my purposes, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a faster or more elegant solution.
size_by_row = []
for row in df_k1.itertuples():
for group in k1_grouped.itertuples():
if row[1:-1] == group[1:-1]:
size_by_row.append(group[-1])
break
group_size = pd.Series(size_by_row)

Pandas splitting a column with new line separator

I am extracting tables from pdf using Camelot. Two of the columns are getting merged together with a newline separator. Is there a way to separate them into two columns?
Suppose the column looks like this.
A\nB
1\n2
2\n3
3\n4
Desired output:
|A|B|
|-|-|
|1|2|
|2|3|
|3|4|
I have tried df['A\nB'].str.split('\n', 2, expand=True) and that splits it into two columns however I want the new column names to be A and B and not 0 and 1. Also I need to pass a generalized column label instead of actual column name since I need to implement this for several docs which may have different column names. I can determine such column name in my dataframe using
colNew = df.columns[df.columns.str.contains(pat = '\n')]
However when I pass colNew in split function, it throws an attribute error
df[colNew].str.split('\n', 2, expand=True)
AttributeError: DataFrame object has no attribute 'str'
You can take advantage of the Pandas split function.
import pandas as pd
# recreate your pandas series above.
df = pd.DataFrame({'A\nB':['1\n2','2\n3','3\n4']})
# first: Turn the col into str.
# second. split the col based on seperator \n
# third: make sure expand as True since you want the after split col become two new col
test = df['A\nB'].astype('str').str.split('\n',expand=True)
# some rename
test.columns = ['A','B']
I hope this is helpful.
I reproduced the error from my side... I guess the issue is that "df[colNew]" is still a dataframe as it contains the indexes.
But .str.split() only works on Series. So taking as example your code, I would convert the dataframe to series using iloc[:,0].
Then another line to split the column headers:
df2=df[colNew].iloc[:,0].str.split('\n', 2, expand=True)
df2.columns = 'A\nB'.split('\n')

How to index a column with two values pandas

I have two dataframes:
Dataframe #1
Reads the values--Will only be interested in NodeID AND GSE
sta = pd.read_csv(filename)
Dataframe #2
Reads the file, use pivot and get the following result
sim = pd.read_csv(headout,index_col=0)
sim['Layer'] = sim.groupby('date').cumcount() + 1
sim['Layer'] = 'L' + sim['Layer'].astype(str)
sim = sim.pivot(index = None , columns = 'Layer').T
This gives me the index column to be with two values. (The header is blank for the first one, and Layers for the second) i.e 1,L1.
What I need help on is:
I can not find a way to rename that first blank in the index to 'NodeID'.
I want to name it that so that I can do the lookup function and use NodeID in both dataframes so that I can bring in the 'GSE' values from the first dataframe to the second.
I have been googling way to rename that first column in the second dataframe and I can not seem to find an solution. Any ideas help at this point. I think my pivot function might be wrong...
This is a picture of dataframe #2 before pivot. The number 1-4 are the Node ID.
when I export it to csv to see what the dataframe looks like I get this..
Try
df.rename(columns={"Index": "your preferred name"})
if it is your index then do -
df = df.reset_index()
df.rename(columns={"index": "your preferred name"})

How to concat 3 dataframes with each into sequential columns

I'm trying to understand how to concat three individual dataframes (i.e df1, df2, df3) into a new dataframe say df4 whereby each individual dataframe has its own column left to right order.
I've tried using concat with axis = 1 to do this, but it appears not possible to automate this with a single action.
Table1_updated = pd.DataFrame(columns=['3P','2PG-3Io','3Io'])
Table1_updated=pd.concat([get_table1_3P,get_table1_2P_max_3Io,get_table1_3Io])
Note that with the exception of get_table1_2P_max_3Io, which has two columns, all other dataframes have one column
For example,
get_table1_3P =
get_table1_2P_max_3Io =
get_table1_3Io =
Ultimately, i would like to see the following:
I believe you need first concat and tthen change order by list of columns names:
Table1_updated=pd.concat([get_table1_3P,get_table1_2P_max_3Io,get_table1_3Io], axis=1)
Table1_updated = Table1_updated[['3P','2PG-3Io','3Io']]

Merge two csv files that have a similar row structure but no common index between them

I have two csv files that I want to merge, by adding the column information from one csv to another. However they have no common index between them, but they do have the same amount of rows(they are in order). I have seen many examples of joining csv files based on index and on same numbers, however my csv files have no similar index, but they are in order. I've tried a few different examples with no luck.
mycsvfile1
"a","1","mike"
"b","2","sally"
"c","3","derek"
mycsvfile2
"boy","63","retired"
"girl","55","employed"
"boy","22","student"
Desired outcome for outcsvfile3
"a","1","mike","boy","63","retired"
"b","2","sally","girl","55","employed"
"c","3","derek","boy","22","student"
Code:
import csv
import panada
df2 = pd.read_csv("mycsvfile1.csv",header=None)
df1 = pd.read_csv("mycsvfile2.csv", header=None)
df3 = pd.merge(df1,df2)
Using
df3 = pd.merge([df1,df2])
Adds the data into a new row which doesn't help me. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
If both dataframes have numbered indexes (i.e. starting at 0 and increasing by 1 - which is the default behaviour of pd.read_csv), and assuming that both DataFrames are already sorted in the correct order so that the rows match up, then this should do it:
df3 = pd.merge(df1,df2, left_index=True, right_index=True)
You do not have any common columns between df1 and df2 , besides the index . So we can using concat
pd.concat([df1,df2],axis=1)
