df.insert(loc=insert_index, column=insert_colname, value=insert_values)how to add a column to a pandas df
#using the insert function:
df.insert(location, column_name, list_of_values)
#example
df.insert(0, 'new_column', ['a','b','c'])
#explanation:
#put "new_column" as first column of the dataframe
#and puts 'a','b' and 'c' as values
#using array-like access:
df['new_column_name'] = value
#df stands for dataframehow to add a new column to the pandas df
import pandas as pd
data = {'Name': ['Josh', 'Stephen', 'Drake', 'Daniel'],
'Height': [5.5, 6.0, 5.3, 4.9]}
'''
printing data at this point will show the following
Name Height
0 Josh 5.1
1 Stephen 6.2
2 Drake 5.1
3 Daniel 5.2
'''
df.insert(2, "Age", [20, 21, 20, 19])
'''
printing data now will show the following
Name Height Age
0 Josh 5.1 20
1 Stephen 6.2 21
2 Drake 5.1 20
