removing newlines from messy strings in pandas dataframe cells?
I’ve used multiple ways of splitting and stripping the strings in my pandas dataframe to remove all the ‘n’characters, but for some reason it simply doesn’t want to delete the characters that are attached to other words, even though I split them.

I’m willing to implement some test (using unittest) to be sure that the generated figures are correct. For instance, I store the expected figure (data or image) in some place, I run my function and compare the result with the reference. Is there a way to do this ?
