写在前面:
- dataframe 和 series 是 pandas 的数据类型
- list 和 dict 是 python 的数据类型
- ndarray 是 numpy的数据类型
- NumPy arrays have one dtype for the entire array, while pandas DataFrames have one dtype per column.
创建对象
Creating a Series by passing a list of values, letting pandas create a default integer index:
In [3]: s = pd.Series([1, 3, 5, np.nan, 6, 8])
In [4]: s
Out[4]:
0 1.0
1 3.0
2 5.0
3 NaN
4 6.0
5 8.0
dtype: float64
Creating a DataFrame by passing a dict of objects that can be converted to series-like.
In [9]: df2 = pd.DataFrame({'A': 1.,
...: 'B': pd.Timestamp('20130102'),
...: 'C': pd.Series(1, index=list(range(4)), dtype='float32'),
...: 'D': np.array([3] * 4, dtype='int32'),
...: 'E': pd.Categorical(["test", "train", "test", "train"]),
...: 'F': 'foo'})
...:
In [10]: df2
Out[10]:
A B C D E F
0 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 test foo
1 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 train foo
2 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 test foo
3 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 train foo
The columns of the resulting DataFrame have different dtypes.
In [11]: df2.dtypes
Out[11]:
A float64
B datetime64[ns]
C float32
D int32
E category
F object
dtype: object
Viewing data
Display the index, columns:
In [15]: df.index
Out[15]:
DatetimeIndex(['2013-01-01', '2013-01-02', '2013-01-03', '2013-01-04',
'2013-01-05', '2013-01-06'],
dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq='D')
In [16]: df.columns
Out[16]: Index(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'], dtype='object')
Transposing your data:
In [20]: df.T
Out[20]:

Sorting by an axis:
In [21]: df.sort_index(axis=1, ascending=False)
Out[21]:
