How to Check Column Nulls and Replace: Pandas

Image
Here is a post that shows how to count Nulls and replace them with the value you want in the Pandas Dataframe. We have explained the process in two steps - Counting and Replacing the Null values. Count null values (column-wise) in Pandas ## count null values column-wise null_counts = df.isnull(). sum() print(null_counts) ``` Output: ``` Column1    1 Column2    1 Column3    5 dtype: int64 ``` In the above code, we first create a sample Pandas DataFrame `df` with some null values. Then, we use the `isnull()` function to create a DataFrame of the same shape as `df`, where each element is a boolean value indicating whether that element is null or not. Finally, we use the `sum()` function to count the number of null values in each column of the resulting DataFrame. The output shows the count of null values column-wise. to count null values column-wise: ``` df.isnull().sum() ``` ##Code snippet to count null values row-wise: ``` df.isnull().sum(axis=1) ``` In the above code, `df` is the Panda

How to Use Arguments in Real Python Programs

Here are four types of exclusive arguments in python. The arguments are passers to functions. These are Required arguments, Keyword arguments, Default arguments and Variable-length arguments. Here're 4 Important Arguments in Python The arguments supply input to functions . Because these are various types, herein you will know the details and usage of those types. Argument#1: Required arguments Positional arguments are known as  required arguments  and are passed to a function in the correct order. The arguments in the function call should match the number in the function definition. Sample program: def cal(a,b):     """program to calculate sum of 2 numbers"""     sum=a+b     return sum a=int(input("enter 1st number")) b=int(input("enter 2nd number")) print(cal(a,b)) Output enter 1st number 10 enter 2nd number 22 32 ** Process exited - Return Code: 0 ** Press Enter to exit terminal Argument#2: Keyword arguments A default argument is
