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

Here's Python Program for List Duplicates

Here is a program to find the item that occurs most frequently in a data structure. So why to find frequent item? Maybe it is the most purchased item on your shopping site. Perhaps it is the web page that gets hit the most often. If you are a tester, it could easily be the test that has had the most failures over the last year. Whatever it is, you want an easy way to find the data you need, and Python is here to help you. Python List duplicates Here are the two simple lists: list_1 = [1,2,3,2,3,2]  list_2 = ['a', 'b', 'a', 'b', 'c'] We can't do simple math on the individual items  since the second list contains characters. For example, it could contain the words of a book, and you want to find the most commonly used word in the work.  Also, it maybe list of UPC values for commonly purchased items. Whatever it is, all we can guarantee is that the data is probably comparable, in that we can compare one of the items to another. Yet we need to f

These Tips Helpful to Remove Python List and Dictionary Duplicates

In this post, I have shared top ideas to remove duplicates from the list. Those are with Append and Dictionary. 1. How to Remove Duplicates with Append # Here is a list with duplicates list_with_duplicates = [1,2,3,12,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,7,8,9] It is simple if you follow the first-approach - brute force approach: list_without_duplicates = [] for pd in list_with_duplicates:   if pd not in list_without_duplicates:       list_without_duplicates.append(pd) print(list_without_duplicates) Result: [1, 2, 3, 12, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] This method has performance issues when the list is bigger in size.  Real-time. 2. How to Remove Duplicates with Dictionary # Here is you can convert a list to a dictionary dict_without_duplicates = dict(zip(list_with_duplicates, list_with_duplicates)) print(dictionary_without_duplicates) Result: {1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 12: 12, 4: 4, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 7, 8: 8, 9: 9} Real-time. Once again, this works and has the advantage of taking less space than duplicating the entire list.
