Outputting Rows by Index

Selecting Specific Rows and Columns

Learning More About Indexation

Getting Familiar With lambda Functions

Expanding Functionality of the .iloc[] Attribute

2. Dealing With Conditions

Here, you will learn how to extract data that has specific conditions. Also, you will learn how to combine them and even create your own.

Setting Condition

Selecting Data Based on Condition

Dealing With Several Conditions

Making Your Code Beautiful

Conditions Quiz

3. Extracting Data

In this section, you will expand your knowledge on setting different data conditions. You will learn to check if your data is in a defined list of values or between two values. You will also learn how to find the largest and smallest values.

Is Data in ...?

Combining Your Knowledge

Extracting Specific Data

Finding the Smallest Values of a Column

Finding the Largest Values of a Column

Finding the Correlation

4. Aggregating Data

This section is one of the most fascinating of the course. Here, you will learn how to group data in different ways. It will help you work as a data analyst to find out information on specific data groups.

Getting Familiar With the .groupby() Method

Grouping by Several Columns

Complicated Grouping

Advanced Grouping

Dealing With Pivot Tables

Creating a Pivot Table

5. Preprocessing Data

This section is one of the most significant for a data analyst because if the data contains missing data values in the incorrect format, it will be impossible to work with. Thus, you will learn how to deal with such inappropriate values here.

Checking for Missing Values

Calculating the Number of Missing Values

What Will We Do With the NaN Values?

How to Delete Only NaN Values?

Renaming the Column

In the previous chapter, you dealt with the incorrect values in a column. It is an excellent time to fix any changes. In our case, we can rename the column to pin that it was changed.

To rename a column, use the .rename() method. Look at the example where we will rename the column 'Survived', and then output the column names.


              1234
            
import pandas as pd
data = pd.read_csv('https://codefinity-content-media.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/4bf24830-59ba-4418-969b-aaf8117d522e/titanic4.csv', index_col = 0)
data.rename(columns = {'Survived': 'Survived_Passenger'}, inplace = True)
print(data.columns)

Explanation:

.rename() - a method that we apply to the dataset to rename columns name;
columns = {'Survived': 'Survived_Passenger'} - in the curly brackets, you specify all columns and their new names. In this case, we renamed just one column, but you can put several of them here separated by commas.

.columns - an attribute that outputs the column names. In our case, we can no longer see the column name 'Survived'.

Your task here is to:

Rename the column 'Fare' to 'Fare_fixed'. Use the inplace = True argument.
Output all column names of the data dataset.
