Modifying a Single Element

In Pandas, it's easily possible to perform operations over the Series. We can modify a single element by indexing it:


              
123456789101112

            
import pandas as pd

# Create a Series of daily temperatures (in °C)
temperatures = pd.Series(
    [22, 18, 25, 19, 21, 23, 20],
    index=["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
)

print("\nUpdating Thursday's temperature to 20°C...")
temperatures["Thursday"] = 20

print(temperatures)
copy

Modifying the Entire Series

Pandas makes it very simple to perform operations over all the elements of a Series:


              
123456789101112

            
import pandas as pd

# Create a Series of daily temperatures (in °C)
temperatures = pd.Series(
    [22, 18, 25, 19, 21, 23, 20],
    index=["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
)

print("\nIncreasing all temperatures by 2°C...")
temperatures = temperatures + 2

print(temperatures)
copy

We can perform operations over slices of the Series as well. This gives us control over how much data to change:


              
123456789101112

            
import pandas as pd

# Create a Series of daily temperatures (in °C)
temperatures = pd.Series(
    [22, 18, 25, 19, 21, 23, 20],
    index=["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
)

print("\nDecreasing temperatures between Wednesday and Friday by 1°C...")
temperatures['Wednesday':'Friday'] -= 1

print(temperatures)
copy

Operations on Series

Pandas also gives us the ability to perform arithmetic operations over the corresponding elements of two or more series with ease.

The following example finds the average between the temperatures of two cities:


              
12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728

            
import pandas as pd

# Temperatures in City A (in °C)
city_a = pd.Series(
    [22, 18, 25, 19, 21, 23, 20],
    index=["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
)

# Temperatures in City B (in °C)
city_b = pd.Series(
    [20, 19, 24, 20, 22, 21, 19],
    index=["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
)

# Add the two series to get total temperatures
total_temperatures = city_a + city_b

# Calculate average temperature
average_temperatures = total_temperatures / 2

print("City A temperatures:")
print(city_a)

print("\nCity B temperatures:")
print(city_b)

print("\nAverage temperatures:")
print(average_temperatures)
copy
