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

What is Block-linking in Blockchain - Quick Tutorial

Satoshi Nakamoto created the first Blockchain project wished Bitcoin to be secure, anonymous and could work with no centralized intermediary. To achieve that, Nakamoto combined public-key cryptography, a distributed ledger, and a consensus algorithm. History of Blockchain  Nakamoto combined public-key cryptography, a distributed ledger, and a consensus algorithm. The groundwork for each component was painfully laid by people before him, such as Wei Dai, Nick Szabo, Hal Finney, and Adam Back. The Blockchain can sometimes refer to the combination of all three components or just the distributed ledger. Blockchain ideas As the name aptly describes, at the heart of the Blockchain there is a chain of blocks, each block containing read-only data that represents monetary transactions. Every time a new block is written, you need to reference the block that immediately precedes it – so, at any given point, you can track down the chain up to the very first block created.
