Summary  
This chapter covers how to inspect a DataFrame’s structure by retrieving and printing its number of rows and columns, column names, and data types using the pandas `info()` method and the built-in `len()` function.

General domain of usage  
Data analysis

In `pandas`, there's a handy method named `info()` that provides basic information about a dataset.

import pandas as pd
# It's a dataframe
df = pd.read_csv('https://codefinity-content-media.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/a43d24b6-df61-4e11-9c90-5b36552b3437/example.csv')
info = df.info()
print(info)

This method displays the number of rows and columns in the DataFrame, as well as each column's name and data type. For instance, `df` contains **20** rows and **5** columns.

To determine the length of a `DataFrame`, use the `len()` function, as shown in the example below:

```python
length = len(df)
```

import unittest
import importlib
import pandas as pd
from io import StringIO
import re


def _dynamic_test(test_case, condition, success_message, failure_message):
    if condition:
        test_case._testMethodName = success_message
        test_case.assertTrue(True, success_message)
    else:
        test_case._testMethodName = failure_message
        test_case.fail(failure_message)


class TestUserCode(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_information_is_declared(self):
        import user_code
        _dynamic_test(
            self,
            hasattr(user_code, 'information'),
            "The `information` variable is declared.",
            "Expected `information` to be declared."
        )

    def test_info_method_is_used(self):
        with open('user_code.py', 'r') as file:
            user_code_source = file.read()

        _dynamic_test(
            self,
            re.search(r'\.info\s*\(', user_code_source),
            "The `info()` method is used.",
            "Expected the `info()` method to be used."
        )


if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()
