Pandas got its name from the term Panel data (‘Pa’ from Panel and ‘da’ from data). Panel data is a data which have rows and columns in it like excel spreadsheets, csv files etc. + +**To use Pandas, first we’ve to import it.** + +## Why pandas? + +* Pandas provides a simple-to-use but very capable set of functions that you can use on your data. +* It is also associate with other machine learning libraries , so it is important to learn it. + +* For example - It is highly used to transform tha data which will be use by machine learning model during the training. + + +```python +# Importing the pandas +import pandas as pd +``` + +*To import any module in Python use “import 'module name' ” command, I used “pd” as pandas abbreviation because we don’t need to type pandas every time only type “pd” to use pandas.* + + +```python +# To check available pandas version +print(f"Pandas Version is : {pd.__version__}") +``` + + Pandas Version is : 2.1.4 + + +## Understanding Pandas data types + +Pandas has two main data types : `Series` and `DataFrames` + +* `pandas.Series` is a 1-dimensional column of data. +* `pandas.DataFrames` is 2 -dimensional data table having rows and columns. + +### 1. Series datatype + +**To creeate a series you can use `pd.Series()` and passing a python list inside()**. + +Note: S in Series is capital if you use small s it will give you an error. + +> Let's create a series + + + +```python +# Creating a series of car companies +cars = pd.Series(["Honda","Audi","Thar","BMW"]) +cars +``` + + + + + 0 Honda + 1 Audi + 2 Thar + 3 BMW + dtype: object + + + +The above code creates a Series of cars companies the name of series is “cars” the code “pd.Series([“Honda” , “Audi” , “Thar”, "BMW"])” means Hey! pandas (pd) create a Series of cars named "Honda" , "Audi" , "Thar" and "BMW". + +The default index of a series is 0,1,2….(Remember it starts from 0) + +To change the index of any series set the “index” parameter accordingly. It takes the list of index values: + + +```python +cars = pd.Series(["Honda","Audi","Thar","BMW"],index = ["A" , "B" , "C" ,"D"]) +cars +``` + + + + + A Honda + B Audi + C Thar + D BMW + dtype: object + + + +You can see that the index has been changed from numbers to A, B ,C and D. + +And the mentioned ‘dtype’ tells us about the type of data we have in the series. + +### 2. DataFrames datatype + +DataFrame contains rows and columns like a csv file have. + +You can also create a DataFrame by using `pd.DataFrame()` and passing it a Python dictionary. + + +```python +# Let's create +cars_with_colours = pd.DataFrame({"Cars" : ["BMW","Audi","Thar","Honda"], + "Colour" : ["Black","White","Red","Green"]}) +cars_with_colours +``` + + + + +
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+
+ + + +The dictionary key is the `column name` and value are the `column data`. + +*You can also create a DataFrame with the help of series.* + + +```python +# Let's create two series +students = pd.Series(["Ram","Mohan","Krishna","Shivam"]) +age = pd.Series([19,20,21,24]) + +students +``` + + + + + 0 Ram + 1 Mohan + 2 Krishna + 3 Shivam + dtype: object + + + + +```python +age +``` + + + + + 0 19 + 1 20 + 2 21 + 3 24 + dtype: int64 + + + + +```python +# Now let's create a dataframe with the help of above series +# pass the series name to the dictionary value + +record = pd.DataFrame({"Student_Name":students , + "Age" :age}) +record +``` + + + + +
