How to take column-slices of dataframe in pandas
I load some machine learning data from a CSV file. The first 2 columns are observations and the remaining columns are features.
I load some machine learning data from a CSV file. The first 2 columns are observations and the remaining columns are features.

I’m trying to replace the values in one column of a dataframe. The column (‘female’) only contains the values ‘female’ and ‘male’.
I am trying but not able to remove nan while combining two columns of a DataFrame.
I have a pandas dataframe df as illustrated below:
I have looked up this issue and most questions are for more complex replacements. However in my case I have a very simple dataframe as a test dummy.
I am appending rows to a pandas DataFrame within a for loop, but at the end the dataframe is always empty. I don’t want to add the rows to an array and then call the DataFrame constructer, because my actual for loop handles lots of data. I also tried pd.concat without success.

How can I filter which lines of a CSV to be loaded into memory using pandas? This seems like an option that one should find in read_csv. Am I missing something?

I am accessing a series of Excel files in a for loop. I then read the data in the excel file to a pandas dataframe. I cant figure out how to append these dataframes together to then save the dataframe (now containing the data from all the files) as a new Excel file.
