How to change the order of DataFrame columns? - python

I have the following DataFrame (df):
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 5))
I add more column(s) by assignment:
df['mean'] = df.mean(1)
How can I move the column mean to the front, i.e. set it as first column leaving the order of the other columns untouched?

One easy way would be to reassign the dataframe with a list of the columns, rearranged as needed.
This is what you have now:
In [6]: df
Out[6]:
0 1 2 3 4 mean
0 0.445598 0.173835 0.343415 0.682252 0.582616 0.445543
1 0.881592 0.696942 0.702232 0.696724 0.373551 0.670208
2 0.662527 0.955193 0.131016 0.609548 0.804694 0.632596
3 0.260919 0.783467 0.593433 0.033426 0.512019 0.436653
4 0.131842 0.799367 0.182828 0.683330 0.019485 0.363371
5 0.498784 0.873495 0.383811 0.699289 0.480447 0.587165
6 0.388771 0.395757 0.745237 0.628406 0.784473 0.588529
7 0.147986 0.459451 0.310961 0.706435 0.100914 0.345149
8 0.394947 0.863494 0.585030 0.565944 0.356561 0.553195
9 0.689260 0.865243 0.136481 0.386582 0.730399 0.561593
In [7]: cols = df.columns.tolist()
In [8]: cols
Out[8]: [0L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 'mean']
Rearrange cols in any way you want. This is how I moved the last element to the first position:
In [12]: cols = cols[-1:] + cols[:-1]
In [13]: cols
Out[13]: ['mean', 0L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L]
Then reorder the dataframe like this:
In [16]: df = df[cols] # OR df = df.ix[:, cols]
In [17]: df
Out[17]:
mean 0 1 2 3 4
0 0.445543 0.445598 0.173835 0.343415 0.682252 0.582616
1 0.670208 0.881592 0.696942 0.702232 0.696724 0.373551
2 0.632596 0.662527 0.955193 0.131016 0.609548 0.804694
3 0.436653 0.260919 0.783467 0.593433 0.033426 0.512019
4 0.363371 0.131842 0.799367 0.182828 0.683330 0.019485
5 0.587165 0.498784 0.873495 0.383811 0.699289 0.480447
6 0.588529 0.388771 0.395757 0.745237 0.628406 0.784473
7 0.345149 0.147986 0.459451 0.310961 0.706435 0.100914
8 0.553195 0.394947 0.863494 0.585030 0.565944 0.356561
9 0.561593 0.689260 0.865243 0.136481 0.386582 0.730399

You could also do something like this:
df = df[['mean', '0', '1', '2', '3']]
You can get the list of columns with:
cols = list(df.columns.values)
The output will produce:
['0', '1', '2', '3', 'mean']
...which is then easy to rearrange manually before dropping it into the first function

Just assign the column names in the order you want them:
In [39]: df
Out[39]:
0 1 2 3 4 mean
0 0.172742 0.915661 0.043387 0.712833 0.190717 1
1 0.128186 0.424771 0.590779 0.771080 0.617472 1
2 0.125709 0.085894 0.989798 0.829491 0.155563 1
3 0.742578 0.104061 0.299708 0.616751 0.951802 1
4 0.721118 0.528156 0.421360 0.105886 0.322311 1
5 0.900878 0.082047 0.224656 0.195162 0.736652 1
6 0.897832 0.558108 0.318016 0.586563 0.507564 1
7 0.027178 0.375183 0.930248 0.921786 0.337060 1
8 0.763028 0.182905 0.931756 0.110675 0.423398 1
9 0.848996 0.310562 0.140873 0.304561 0.417808 1
In [40]: df = df[['mean', 4,3,2,1]]
Now, 'mean' column comes out in the front:
In [41]: df
Out[41]:
mean 4 3 2 1
0 1 0.190717 0.712833 0.043387 0.915661
1 1 0.617472 0.771080 0.590779 0.424771
2 1 0.155563 0.829491 0.989798 0.085894
3 1 0.951802 0.616751 0.299708 0.104061
4 1 0.322311 0.105886 0.421360 0.528156
5 1 0.736652 0.195162 0.224656 0.082047
6 1 0.507564 0.586563 0.318016 0.558108
7 1 0.337060 0.921786 0.930248 0.375183
8 1 0.423398 0.110675 0.931756 0.182905
9 1 0.417808 0.304561 0.140873 0.310562

For pandas >= 1.3 (Edited in 2022):
df.insert(0, 'mean', df.pop('mean'))
How about (for Pandas < 1.3, the original answer)
df.insert(0, 'mean', df['mean'])
https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/dsintro.html#column-selection-addition-deletion

In your case,
df = df.reindex(columns=['mean',0,1,2,3,4])
will do exactly what you want.
In my case (general form):
df = df.reindex(columns=sorted(df.columns))
df = df.reindex(columns=(['opened'] + list([a for a in df.columns if a != 'opened']) ))

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame()
column_names = ['x','y','z','mean']
for col in column_names:
df[col] = np.random.randint(0,100, size=10000)
You can try out the following solutions :
Solution 1:
df = df[ ['mean'] + [ col for col in df.columns if col != 'mean' ] ]
Solution 2:
df = df[['mean', 'x', 'y', 'z']]
Solution 3:
col = df.pop("mean")
df = df.insert(0, col.name, col)
Solution 4:
df.set_index(df.columns[-1], inplace=True)
df.reset_index(inplace=True)
Solution 5:
cols = list(df)
cols = [cols[-1]] + cols[:-1]
df = df[cols]
solution 6:
order = [1,2,3,0] # setting column's order
df = df[[df.columns[i] for i in order]]

You need to create a new list of your columns in the desired order, then use df = df[cols] to rearrange the columns in this new order.
cols = ['mean'] + [col for col in df if col != 'mean']
df = df[cols]
You can also use a more general approach. In this example, the last column (indicated by -1) is inserted as the first column.
cols = [df.columns[-1]] + [col for col in df if col != df.columns[-1]]
df = df[cols]
You can also use this approach for reordering columns in a desired order if they are present in the DataFrame.
inserted_cols = ['a', 'b', 'c']
cols = ([col for col in inserted_cols if col in df]
+ [col for col in df if col not in inserted_cols])
df = df[cols]

Suppose you have df with columns A B C.
The most simple way is:
df = df.reindex(['B','C','A'], axis=1)

If your column names are too-long-to-type then you could specify the new order through a list of integers with the positions:

Although it might seem like I'm just explicitly typing the column names in a different order, the fact that there's a column 'mean' should make it clear that new_order relates to actual positions and not column names.
For the specific case of OP's question:
new_order = [-1,0,1,2,3,4]
df = df[df.columns[new_order]]
print(df)
mean 0 1 2 3 4
0 0.500678 0.397312 0.361846 0.719802 0.575223 0.449205

The main problem with this approach is that calling the same code multiple times will create different results each time, so one needs to be careful :)

This question has been answered before but reindex_axis is deprecated now so I would suggest to use:
df = df.reindex(sorted(df.columns), axis=1)
For those who want to specify the order they want instead of just sorting them, here's the solution spelled out:
df = df.reindex(['the','order','you','want'], axis=1)
Now, how you want to sort the list of column names is really not a pandas question, that's a Python list manipulation question. There are many ways of doing that, and I think this answer has a very neat way of doing it.

You can reorder the dataframe columns using a list of names with:
df = df.filter(list_of_col_names)

I think this is a slightly neater solution:
df.insert(0, 'mean', df.pop("mean"))
This solution is somewhat similar to #JoeHeffer 's solution but this is one liner.
Here we remove the column "mean" from the dataframe and attach it to index 0 with the same column name.

I ran into a similar question myself, and just wanted to add what I settled on. I liked the reindex_axis() method for changing column order. This worked:
df = df.reindex_axis(['mean'] + list(df.columns[:-1]), axis=1)
An alternate method based on the comment from #Jorge:
df = df.reindex(columns=['mean'] + list(df.columns[:-1]))
Although reindex_axis seems to be slightly faster in micro benchmarks than reindex, I think I prefer the latter for its directness.

This function avoids you having to list out every variable in your dataset just to order a few of them.
def order(frame,var):
if type(var) is str:
var = [var] #let the command take a string or list
varlist =[w for w in frame.columns if w not in var]
frame = frame[var+varlist]
return frame
It takes two arguments, the first is the dataset, the second are the columns in the data set that you want to bring to the front.
So in my case I have a data set called Frame with variables A1, A2, B1, B2, Total and Date. If I want to bring Total to the front then all I have to do is:
frame = order(frame,['Total'])
If I want to bring Total and Date to the front then I do:
frame = order(frame,['Total','Date'])
EDIT:
Another useful way to use this is, if you have an unfamiliar table and you're looking with variables with a particular term in them, like VAR1, VAR2,... you may execute something like:
frame = order(frame,[v for v in frame.columns if "VAR" in v])

Simply do,
df = df[['mean'] + df.columns[:-1].tolist()]

Here's a way to move one existing column that will modify the existing dataframe in place.
my_column = df.pop('column name')
df.insert(3, my_column.name, my_column) # Is in-place

Just type the column name you want to change, and set the index for the new location.
def change_column_order(df, col_name, index):
cols = df.columns.tolist()
cols.remove(col_name)
cols.insert(index, col_name)
return df[cols]
For your case, this would be like:
df = change_column_order(df, 'mean', 0)

You could do the following (borrowing parts from Aman's answer):
cols = df.columns.tolist()
cols.insert(0, cols.pop(-1))
cols
>>>['mean', 0L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L]
df = df[cols]

Moving any column to any position:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1,2,3],
"B": [2,4,8],
"C": [5,5,5]})
cols = df.columns.tolist()
column_to_move = "C"
new_position = 1
cols.insert(new_position, cols.pop(cols.index(column_to_move)))
df = df[cols]

I wanted to bring two columns in front from a dataframe where I do not know exactly the names of all columns, because they are generated from a pivot statement before.
So, if you are in the same situation: To bring columns in front that you know the name of and then let them follow by "all the other columns", I came up with the following general solution:
df = df.reindex_axis(['Col1','Col2'] + list(df.columns.drop(['Col1','Col2'])), axis=1)

Here is a very simple answer to this(only one line).
You can do that after you added the 'n' column into your df as follows.
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 5))
df['mean'] = df.mean(1)
df

### here you can add below line and it should work
# Don't forget the two (()) 'brackets' around columns names.Otherwise, it'll give you an error.
df = df[list(('mean',0, 1, 2,3,4))]

You can use a set which is an unordered collection of unique elements to do keep the "order of the other columns untouched":
other_columns = list(set(df.columns).difference(["mean"])) #[0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
Then, you can use a lambda to move a specific column to the front by:
In [1]: import numpy as np
In [2]: import pandas as pd
In [3]: df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 5))
In [4]: df["mean"] = df.mean(1)
In [5]: move_col_to_front = lambda df, col: df[[col]+list(set(df.columns).difference([col]))]
In [6]: move_col_to_front(df, "mean")
Out[6]:

Just flipping helps often.
df[df.columns[::-1]]
Or just shuffle for a look.
import random
cols = list(df.columns)
random.shuffle(cols)
df[cols]

You can use reindex which can be used for both axis:

Hackiest method in the book
df.insert(0, "test", df["mean"])
df = df.drop(columns=["mean"]).rename(columns={"test": "mean"})

A pretty straightforward solution that worked for me is to use .reindex on df.columns:
df = df[df.columns.reindex(['mean', 0, 1, 2, 3, 4])[0]]

Here is a function to do this for any number of columns.
def mean_first(df):
ncols = df.shape[1] # Get the number of columns
index = list(range(ncols)) # Create an index to reorder the columns
index.insert(0,ncols) # This puts the last column at the front
return(df.assign(mean=df.mean(1)).iloc[:,index]) # new df with last column (mean) first

A simple approach is using set(), in particular when you have a long list of columns and do not want to handle them manually:
cols = list(set(df.columns.tolist()) - set(['mean']))
cols.insert(0, 'mean')
df = df[cols]

How about using T?
df = df.T.reindex(['mean', 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]).T

I believe #Aman's answer is the best if you know the location of the other column.
If you don't know the location of mean, but only have its name, you cannot resort directly to cols = cols[-1:] + cols[:-1]. Following is the next-best thing I could come up with:
meanDf = pd.DataFrame(df.pop('mean'))
# now df doesn't contain "mean" anymore. Order of join will move it to left or right:
meanDf.join(df) # has mean as first column
df.join(meanDf) # has mean as last column

how to apply multiplication within pandas dataframe

please advice how to get the following output:
df1 = pd.DataFrame([['1, 2', '2, 2','3, 2','1, 1', '2, 1','3, 1']])
df2 = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 100, 'x'], [3, 4, 200, 'y'], [5, 6, 300, 'x']])
import numpy as np
df22 = df2.rename(index = lambda x: x + 1).set_axis(np.arange(1, len(df2.columns) + 1), inplace=False, axis=1)
f = lambda x: df22.loc[tuple(map(int, x.split(',')))]
df = df1.applymap(f)
print (df)
Output:
0 1 2 3 4 5
0 2 4 6 1 3 5
df1 is 'address' of df2 in row, col format (1,2 is first row, second column which is 2, 2,2 is 4 3,2 is 6 etc.)
I need to add values from the 3rd and 4th columns to get something like (2*100x, 4*200y, 6*300x, 1*100x, 3*200y, 5*300x)
the output should be 5000(sum of x's and y's), 0.28 (1400/5000 - % of y's)
It's not clear to me why you need df1 and df... Maybe your question is lacking some details?
You can compute your values directly:
df22['val'] = (df22[1] + df22[2])*df22[3]
Output:
1 2 3 4 val
1 1 2 100 x 300
2 3 4 200 y 1400
3 5 6 300 x 3300
From there it's straightforward to compute the sums (total and grouped by column 4):
total = df22['val'].sum() # 5000
y_sum = df22.groupby(4).sum().loc['y', 'val'] # 1400
print(y_sum/total) # 0.28
Edit: if df1 doesn't necessarily contain all members of columns 1 and 2, you could loop through it (it's not clear in your question why df1 is a Dataframe or if it can have more than one row, therefore I flattened it):
df22['val'] = 0
for c in df1.to_numpy().flatten():
i, j = map(int, c.split(','))
df22.loc[i, 'val'] += df22.loc[i, j]*df22.loc[i, 3]
This gives you the same output as above for your example but will ignore values that are not in df1.

add a different random number to every cell in a pandas dataframe

I need to add some 'noise' to my data, so I would like to add a different random number to every cell in my pandas dataframe. This code works, but seems unpythonic. Is there a better way?
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df = pd.DataFrame(0.0, index=[1,2,3,4,5], columns=list('ABC') )
print df
for x,line in df.iterrows():
for col in df:
line[col] = line[col] + (np.random.rand()-0.5)/1000.0
print df
df + np.random.rand(*df.shape) / 10000.0
OR
Let's use applymap:
df = pd.DataFrame(1.0, index=[1,2,3,4,5], columns=list('ABC') )
df.applymap(lambda x: x + np.random.rand()/10000.0)
output:
A \

This would be the more succinct method and equivalent:
In [147]:
df = pd.DataFrame((np.random.rand(5,3) - 0.5)/1000.0, columns=list('ABC'))
df
Out[147]:
A B C
0 0.000381 -0.000167 0.000020
1 0.000482 0.000007 -0.000281
2 -0.000032 -0.000402 -0.000251
3 -0.000037 -0.000319 0.000260
4 -0.000035 0.000178 0.000166
If you're doing this to an existing df with non-zero values then add:
In [149]:
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(5,3), columns=list('ABC'))
df
Out[149]:
A B C
0 -1.705644 0.149067 0.835378
1 -0.956335 -0.586120 0.212981
2 0.550727 -0.401768 1.421064
3 0.348885 0.879210 0.136858
4 0.271063 0.132579 1.233789
In [154]:
df.add((np.random.rand(df.shape[0], df.shape[1]) - 0.5)/1000.0)
Out[154]:
A B C
0 -1.705459 0.148671 0.835761
1 -0.956745 -0.586382 0.213339
2 0.550368 -0.401651 1.421515
3 0.348938 0.878923 0.136914
4 0.270864 0.132864 1.233622
For nonzero data:
df + (np.random.rand(df.shape)-0.5)*0.001
OR
df + np.random.uniform(-0.01,0.01,(df.shape)))
For cases where your data frame contains zeros that you wish to keep as zero:
df * (1 + (np.random.rand(df.shape)-0.5)*0.001)
OR
df * (1 + np.random.uniform(-0.01,0.01,(df.shape)))
I think either of these should work, its a case of generating a same size "dataframe" (or perhaps array of arrays) as your existing df and adding it to your existing df (multiplying by 1 + random for cases where you wish zeros to remain zero). With the uniform function you can determine the scale of your noise by altering the 0.01 variable.

Pandas Split Dataframe into two Dataframes at a specific row

I have pandas DataFrame which I have composed from concat. One row consists of 96 values, I would like to split the DataFrame from the value 72.
So that the first 72 values of a row are stored in Dataframe1, and the next 24 values of a row in Dataframe2.
I create my DF as follows:
temps = DataFrame(myData)
datasX = concat(
[temps.shift(72), temps.shift(71), temps.shift(70), temps.shift(69), temps.shift(68), temps.shift(67),
temps.shift(66), temps.shift(65), temps.shift(64), temps.shift(63), temps.shift(62), temps.shift(61),
temps.shift(60), temps.shift(59), temps.shift(58), temps.shift(57), temps.shift(56), temps.shift(55),
temps.shift(54), temps.shift(53), temps.shift(52), temps.shift(51), temps.shift(50), temps.shift(49),
temps.shift(48), temps.shift(47), temps.shift(46), temps.shift(45), temps.shift(44), temps.shift(43),
temps.shift(42), temps.shift(41), temps.shift(40), temps.shift(39), temps.shift(38), temps.shift(37),
temps.shift(36), temps.shift(35), temps.shift(34), temps.shift(33), temps.shift(32), temps.shift(31),
temps.shift(30), temps.shift(29), temps.shift(28), temps.shift(27), temps.shift(26), temps.shift(25),
temps.shift(24), temps.shift(23), temps.shift(22), temps.shift(21), temps.shift(20), temps.shift(19),
temps.shift(18), temps.shift(17), temps.shift(16), temps.shift(15), temps.shift(14), temps.shift(13),
temps.shift(12), temps.shift(11), temps.shift(10), temps.shift(9), temps.shift(8), temps.shift(7),
temps.shift(6), temps.shift(5), temps.shift(4), temps.shift(3), temps.shift(2), temps.shift(1), temps,
temps.shift(-1), temps.shift(-2), temps.shift(-3), temps.shift(-4), temps.shift(-5), temps.shift(-6),
temps.shift(-7), temps.shift(-8), temps.shift(-9), temps.shift(-10), temps.shift(-11), temps.shift(-12),
temps.shift(-13), temps.shift(-14), temps.shift(-15), temps.shift(-16), temps.shift(-17), temps.shift(-18),
temps.shift(-19), temps.shift(-20), temps.shift(-21), temps.shift(-22), temps.shift(-23)], axis=1)
Question is: How can split them? :)

df1 = datasX.iloc[:, :72]
df2 = datasX.iloc[:, 72:]

I generally use array split because it's easier simple syntax and scales better with more than 2 partitions.
import numpy as np
partitions = 2
dfs = np.array_split(df, partitions)
np.split(df, [100,200,300], axis=0] wants explicit index numbers which may or may not be desirable.

Reshape column to multiple columns

I'm rather new to Python and i'm having some troubles. I have the following dataframe:
import pandas as pd
data = {'v1':('Belgium[country]', 'Antwerp[city]', 'Gent[city]', 'France[country]', 'Paris[city]', 'Marseille[city]', 'Toulouse[city]', 'Spain[country]', 'Madrid[city]')}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
df
v1
0 Belgium[country]
1 Antwerp[city]
2 Gent[city]
3 France[country]
4 Paris[city]
5 Marseille[city]
6 Toulouse[city]
7 Spain[country]
8 Madrid[city]
Which I want to map to the following format:
v1 v2
0 Belgium[country] Antwerp[city]
1 Belgium[country] Gent[city]
2 France[country] Paris[city]
3 France[country] Marseille[city]
4 France[country] Toulouse[city]
5 Spain[country] Madrid[city]
I found a way to do this using a dictionary, but since I want to maintain the order I'm looking for a way to do this using a list or so.
I tried it both based on the indexes and on the values themselves (specifically [country] and [city]), but i failed with both. Any help is much appreciated!
This will work:
counter = df['v1'].str.contains('country').cumsum()
result = df.groupby(counter).apply(lambda g: g[1:]).reset_index(level=1, drop=True)
result = result.rename(columns={'v1': 'v2'}).reset_index(drop=False)
result['v1'] = result['v1'].replace(df.groupby(counter).first().squeeze())
The idea is to add a counter that is incremented for each new country. You can then group by this counter to access the information you need.
Specifically, the first step is to keep only cities (g[1:] for each group g). Then do some renaming and reindexing. Finally, use the result from another groupby (giving the country) to replace the values in column v1.
Solution without groupby:
#rename columns
df = df.rename(columns={'v1':'v2'})
#get counter
counter= df.v2.str.contains('country').cumsum()
#get mask where are changed country to city
df.insert(0, 'v1', df.loc[counter.ne(counter.shift()), 'v2'])
#forward filling NaN
df.v1 = df.v1.ffill()
#remove rows where v1 == v2
df = df[df.v1.ne(df.v2)].reset_index(drop=True)
print (df)
v1 v2
0 Belgium[country] Antwerp[city]
1 Belgium[country] Gent[city]
2 France[country] Paris[city]
3 France[country] Marseille[city]
4 France[country] Toulouse[city]
5 Spain[country] Madrid[city]
Timings:
In [189]: %timeit (jez(df))
100 loops, best of 3: 2.47 ms per loop
In [191]: %timeit (IanS(df1))
100 loops, best of 3: 5.06 ms per loop
Code for timings:
def jez(df):
df = df.rename(columns={'v1':'v2'})
counter= df.v2.str.contains('country').cumsum()
df.insert(0, 'v1', df.loc[counter.ne(counter.shift()), 'v2'])
df.v1 = df.v1.ffill()
df = df[df.v1.ne(df.v2)].reset_index(drop=True)
return (df)
def IanS(df):
counter = df['v1'].str.contains('country').cumsum()
result = df.groupby(counter).apply(lambda g: g[1:]).reset_index(level=1, drop=True)
result = result.rename(columns={'v1': 'v2'}).reset_index(drop=False)
result['v1'] = result['v1'].replace(df.groupby(counter).first().squeeze())
return (result)

Pandas dataframe total row

I have a dataframe, something like:
foo bar qux
0 a 1 3.14
1 b 3 2.72
2 c 2 1.62
3 d 9 1.41
4 e 3 0.58
and I would like to add a 'total' row to the end of dataframe:
foo bar qux
0 a 1 3.14
1 b 3 2.72
2 c 2 1.62
3 d 9 1.41
4 e 3 0.58
5 total 18 9.47
I've tried to use the sum command but I end up with a Series, which although I can convert back to a Dataframe, doesn't maintain the data types:
tot_row = pd.DataFrame(df.sum()).T
tot_row['foo'] = 'tot'
tot_row.dtypes:
foo object
bar object
qux object
I would like to maintain the data types from the original data frame as I need to apply other operations to the total row, something like:
baz = 2*tot_row['qux'] + 3*tot_row['bar']
Update June 2022
pd.append is now deprecated. You could use pd.concat instead but it's probably easier to use df.loc['Total'] = df.sum(numeric_only=True), as Kevin Zhu commented. Or, better still, don't modify the data frame in place and keep your data separate from your summary statistics!
Append a totals row with
df.append(df.sum(numeric_only=True), ignore_index=True)
The conversion is necessary only if you have a column of strings or objects.
It's a bit of a fragile solution so I'd recommend sticking to operations on the dataframe, though. eg.
baz = 2*df['qux'].sum() + 3*df['bar'].sum()
df.loc["Total"] = df.sum()
works for me and I find it easier to remember. Am I missing something?
Probably wasn't possible in earlier versions.
I'd actually like to add the total row only temporarily though.
Adding it permanently is good for display but makes it a hassle in further calculations.
Just found
df.append(df.sum().rename('Total'))
This prints what I want in a Jupyter notebook and appears to leave the df itself untouched.
New Method
To get both row and column total:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({'a': [10,20],'b':[100,200],'c': ['a','b']})
df.loc['Column_Total']= df.sum(numeric_only=True, axis=0)
df.loc[:,'Row_Total'] = df.sum(numeric_only=True, axis=1)
print(df)
a b c Row_Total
0 10.0 100.0 a 110.0
1 20.0 200.0 b 220.0
Column_Total 30.0 300.0 NaN 330.0
Use DataFrame.pivot_table with margins=True:
import pandas as pd
data = [('a',1,3.14),('b',3,2.72),('c',2,1.62),('d',9,1.41),('e',3,.58)]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=('foo', 'bar', 'qux'))
Original df:
foo bar qux
0 a 1 3.14
1 b 3 2.72
2 c 2 1.62
3 d 9 1.41
4 e 3 0.58
Since pivot_table requires some sort of grouping (without the index argument, it'll raise a ValueError: No group keys passed!), and your original index is vacuous, we'll use the foo column:
df.pivot_table(index='foo',
margins=True,
margins_name='total', # defaults to 'All'
aggfunc=sum)
Voilà!
bar qux
foo
a 1 3.14
b 3 2.72
c 2 1.62
d 9 1.41
e 3 0.58
total 18 9.47
Alternative way (verified on Pandas 0.18.1):
import numpy as np
total = df.apply(np.sum)
total['foo'] = 'tot'
df.append(pd.DataFrame(total.values, index=total.keys()).T, ignore_index=True)
Result:
foo bar qux
0 a 1 3.14
1 b 3 2.72
2 c 2 1.62
3 d 9 1.41
4 e 3 0.58
5 tot 18 9.47
Building on JMZ answer
df.append(df.sum(numeric_only=True), ignore_index=True)
if you want to continue using your current index you can name the sum series using .rename() as follows:
df.append(df.sum().rename('Total'))
This will add a row at the bottom of the table.
This is the way that I do it, by transposing and using the assign method in combination with a lambda function. It makes it simple for me.
df.T.assign(GrandTotal = lambda x: x.sum(axis=1)).T
Building on answer from Matthias Kauer.
To add row total:
df.loc["Row_Total"] = df.sum()
To add column total,
df.loc[:,"Column_Total"] = df.sum(axis=1)
New method [September 2022]
TL;DR:
Just use
df.style.concat(df.agg(['sum']).style)
for a solution that won't change you dataframe, works even if you have an "sum" in your index, and can be styled!
Explanation
In pandas 1.5.0, a new method named .style.concat() gives you the ability to display several dataframes together. This is a good way to show the total (or any other statistics), because it is not changing the original dataframe, and works even if you have an index named "sum" in your original dataframe.
For example:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], columns=['A', 'B', 'C'])
df.style.concat(df.agg(['sum']).style)
and it will return a formatted table that is visible in jupyter as this:
Styling
with a little longer code, you can even make the last row look different:
df.style.concat(
df.agg(['sum']).style
.set_properties(**{'background-color': 'yellow'})
)
to get:
see other ways to style (such as bold font, or table lines) in the docs
Following helped for me to add a column total and row total to a dataframe.
Assume dft1 is your original dataframe... now add a column total and row total with the following steps.
from io import StringIO
import pandas as pd
#create dataframe string
dfstr = StringIO(u"""
a;b;c
1;1;1
2;2;2
3;3;3
4;4;4
5;5;5
""")
#create dataframe dft1 from string
dft1 = pd.read_csv(dfstr, sep=";")
## add a column total to dft1
dft1['Total'] = dft1.sum(axis=1)
## add a row total to dft1 with the following steps
sum_row = dft1.sum(axis=0) #get sum_row first
dft1_sum=pd.DataFrame(data=sum_row).T #change it to a dataframe
dft1_sum=dft1_sum.reindex(columns=dft1.columns) #line up the col index to dft1
dft1_sum.index = ['row_total'] #change row index to row_total
dft1.append(dft1_sum) # append the row to dft1
Actually all proposed solutions render the original DataFrame unusable for any further analysis and can invalidate following computations, which will be easy to overlook and could lead to false results.
This is because you add a row to the data, which Pandas cannot differentiate from an additional row of data.
Example:
import pandas as pd
data = [1, 5, 6, 8, 9]
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
df
df.describe()
yields
0
0
1
1
5
2
6
3
8
4
9
0
count
5
mean
5.8
std
3.11448
min
1
25%
5
50%
6
75%
8
max
9
After
df.loc['Totals']= df.sum(numeric_only=True, axis=0)
the dataframe looks like this
0
0
1
1
5
2
6
3
8
4
9
Totals
29
This looks nice, but the new row is treated as if it was an additional data item, so df.describe will produce false results:
0
count
6
mean
9.66667
std
9.87252
min
1
25%
5.25
50%
7
75%
8.75
max
29
So: Watch out! and apply this only after doing all other analyses of the data or work on a copy of the DataFrame!
When the "totals" need to be added to an index column:
totals = pd.DataFrame(df.sum(numeric_only=True)).transpose().set_index(pd.Index({"totals"}))
df.append(totals)

Since i generally want to do this at the very end as to avoid breaking the integrity of the dataframe (right before printing). I created a summary_rows_cols method which returns a printable dataframe:
def summary_rows_cols(df: pd.DataFrame,
column_sum: bool = False,
column_avg: bool = False,
column_median: bool = False,
row_sum: bool = False,
row_avg: bool = False,
row_median: bool = False
) -> pd.DataFrame:
ret = df.copy()
if column_sum: ret.loc['Sum'] = df.sum(numeric_only=True, axis=0)
if column_avg: ret.loc['Avg'] = df.mean(numeric_only=True, axis=0)
if column_median: ret.loc['Median'] = df.median(numeric_only=True, axis=0)
if row_sum: ret.loc[:, 'Sum'] = df.sum(numeric_only=True, axis=1)
if row_median: ret.loc[:, 'Avg'] = df.mean(numeric_only=True, axis=1)
if row_avg: ret.loc[:, 'Median'] = df.median(numeric_only=True, axis=1)
ret.fillna('-', inplace=True)
return ret
This allows me to enter a generic (numeric) df and get a summarized output such as:
a b c Sum Median
0 1 4 7 12 4
1 2 5 8 15 5
2 3 6 9 18 6
Sum 6 15 24 - -
from:
data = {
'a': [1, 2, 3],
'b': [4, 5, 6],
'c': [7, 8, 9]
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
printable = summary_rows_cols(df, row_sum=True, column_sum=True, row_median=True)
