 Removing Characters: Method 2
Removing Characters: Method 2
As mentioned, there are two ways to remove a character from all column values. The second method uses a lambda function. How does it work? You define a lambda function that removes a certain character/characters from a function variable, and apply it to the selected column. Then you convert obtained values to the necessary type and save them.
Swipe to start coding
- Define a lambda function with a single argument xthat will look for and delete any of the characters'$°C%'from both the left and right sides (using the.strip()method). Assign the function to thermvariable.
- Apply the rmfunction to the'Fuel_Price'column and then convert it to numerical type (float) using the.astype()method. Assign the obtained result to the same column.
- Perform the same actions described in the step 2 for the 'Unemployment'column.
- Perform the same actions described in the step 2 for the 'Temperature'column.
- Display the first row of the dfdataframe and data types of thedfdataframe.
