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

The Perfect Way to Swap two Strings in Python

Here is the perfect way swap two strings in python. Without a third variable, you can swap strings in Python. With the swap function, you can achieve this. Here's the sample logic. Swap two strings Multiple arguments you can use in the same function. Here,  a  and b  are arguments for the swap function. You'll get output as swapped when you use the swap function. def swap(a, b):  return b,a  Logic to swap strings. i = "Hello world" j = "This is ApplyBigAnalytics"  (i, j) = swap(i, j)  print(i)  print(j)  Logic to Swap two numbers. i = 1  j = 2  (i, j) = swap(i,j)  print(i)   print(j) Here is output This is ApplyBigAnalytics  Hello world  2  1 Related Posts The Real Purpose of Underscore in Python 

Python How to Create Function

Image
In Python, you can define and call the function. Once done, you can call it later from the other program. I have shared the structure of it. And, I have added the three rules of it; useful for interviews. Structure of Function Structure of Function Rules to Create a Function A function definition is executable. The body will have the code to perform the task you wish. You can assign default parameter values. 1. Key Elements. You will find here three key elements of the Python function. Here you can read the parameter vs argument differences . Name of a function. It can be any valid identifier. It should be meaningful, and it should convey the work it will do. Parameter. These should be separated with command and should be in the parentheses following the name of the function. The parameters are input to function. It can have any parameters. Body of the function. The function body can contain code that implements the task to be performed by it. 2. Sample Function. Python Example. def
