从熊猫数据框列获取列表

Question 1

I have an excel document which looks like this..

cluster load_date   budget  actual  fixed_price
A   1/1/2014    1000    4000    Y
A   2/1/2014    12000   10000   Y
A   3/1/2014    36000   2000    Y
B   4/1/2014    15000   10000   N
B   4/1/2014    12000   11500   N
B   4/1/2014    90000   11000   N
C   7/1/2014    22000   18000   N
C   8/1/2014    30000   28960   N
C   9/1/2014    53000   51200   N

I want to be able to return the contents of column 1 – cluster as a list, so I can run a for loop over it, and create an excel worksheet for every cluster.

Is it also possible, to return the contents of a whole row to a list? e.g.

list = [], list[column1] or list[df.ix(row1)]

Question 2

Pandas DataFrame columns are Pandas Series when you pull them out, which you can then call x.tolist() on to turn them into a Python list. Alternatively you cast it with list(x).

import pandas as pd

data_dict = {'one': pd.Series([1, 2, 3], index=['a', 'b', 'c']),
             'two': pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4], index=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'])}

df = pd.DataFrame(data_dict)

print(f"DataFrame:\n{df}\n")
print(f"column types:\n{df.dtypes}")

col_one_list = df['one'].tolist()

col_one_arr = df['one'].to_numpy()

print(f"\ncol_one_list:\n{col_one_list}\ntype:{type(col_one_list)}")
print(f"\ncol_one_arr:\n{col_one_arr}\ntype:{type(col_one_arr)}")

Output:

DataFrame:
   one  two
a  1.0    1
b  2.0    2
c  3.0    3
d  NaN    4

column types:
one    float64
two      int64
dtype: object

col_one_list:
[1.0, 2.0, 3.0, nan]
type:<class 'list'>

col_one_arr:
[ 1.  2.  3. nan]
type:<class 'numpy.ndarray'>

Question 3

This returns a numpy array:

arr = df["cluster"].to_numpy()

This returns a numpy array of unique values:

unique_arr = df["cluster"].unique()

You can also use numpy to get the unique values, although there are differences between the two methods:

arr = df["cluster"].to_numpy()
unique_arr = np.unique(arr)

Question 4

Example conversion:

Numpy Array -> Panda Data Frame -> List from one Panda Column

Numpy Array

data = np.array([[10,20,30], [20,30,60], [30,60,90]])

Convert numpy array into Panda data frame

dataPd = pd.DataFrame(data = data)
    
print(dataPd)
0   1   2
0  10  20  30
1  20  30  60
2  30  60  90

Convert one Panda column to list

pdToList = list(dataPd['2'])

Question 5

As this question attained a lot of attention and there are several ways to fulfill your task, let me present several options.

Those are all one-liners by the way ;)

Starting with:

df
  cluster load_date budget actual fixed_price
0       A  1/1/2014   1000   4000           Y
1       A  2/1/2014  12000  10000           Y
2       A  3/1/2014  36000   2000           Y
3       B  4/1/2014  15000  10000           N
4       B  4/1/2014  12000  11500           N
5       B  4/1/2014  90000  11000           N
6       C  7/1/2014  22000  18000           N
7       C  8/1/2014  30000  28960           N
8       C  9/1/2014  53000  51200           N

Overview of potential operations:

ser_aggCol (collapse each column to a list)

budget         [1000, 12000, 36000, 15000...
actual         [4000, 10000, 2000, 10000,...
fixed_price      [Y, Y, Y, N, N, N, N, N, N]
dtype: object


ser_aggRows (collapse each row to a list)
0     [A, 1/1/2014, 1000, 4000, Y]
1    [A, 2/1/2014, 12000, 10000...

7    [C, 8/1/2014, 30000, 28960...
8    [C, 9/1/2014, 53000, 51200...
dtype: object


df_gr (here you get lists for each cluster)
                             load_date                 budget                 actual fixed_price
cluster

C        [7/1/2014, 8/1/2014, 9/1/2...  [22000, 30000, 53000]  [18000, 28960, 51200]   [N, N, N]

you can convert a series to a list
['C', '8/1/2014', '30000', '28960', 'N']
<class 'list'>


you can convert a dataframe to a nested list
[['A', '1/1/2014', '1000', '4000', 'Y'], ['A', '2/1/2014', '12000', '10000', 'Y'], ['A', '3/1/2014', '36000', '2000', 'Y'], ['B', '4/1/2014', '15000', '10000', 'N'], ['B', '4/1/2014', '12000', '11500', 'N'], ['B', '4/1/2014', '90000', '11000', 'N'], ['C', '7/1/2014', '22000', '18000', 'N'], ['C', '8/1/2014', '30000', '28960', 'N'], ['C', '9/1/2014', '53000', '51200', 'N']]

the content of a dataframe can be accessed as a numpy.ndarray

as pointed out by cs95 other methods should be preferred over pandas .values attribute from pandas version 0.24 on see here. I use it here, because most people will (by 2019) still have an older version, which does not support the new recommendations. You can check your version with print(pd.__version__)

Question 6

If your column will only have one value something like pd.series.tolist() will produce an error. To guarantee that it will work for all cases, use the code below:

(
    df
        .filter(['column_name'])
        .values
        .reshape(1, -1)
        .ravel()
        .tolist()
)

Question 7

Assuming the name of the dataframe after reading the excel sheet is df, take an empty list (e.g. dataList), iterate through the dataframe row by row and append to your empty list like-

dataList = [] #empty list
for index, row in df.iterrows(): 
    mylist = [row.cluster, row.load_date, row.budget, row.actual, row.fixed_price]
    dataList.append(mylist)

Or,

dataList = [] #empty list
for row in df.itertuples(): 
    mylist = [row.cluster, row.load_date, row.budget, row.actual, row.fixed_price]
    dataList.append(mylist)

No, if you print the dataList, you will get each rows as a list in the dataList.

Question 8

 amount = list()
    for col in df.columns:
        val = list(df[col])
        for v in val:
            amount.append(v)
