How to Convert a Python Dictionary to a Pandas DataFrame
We will cover methods for dictionary
converting Python to Pandas , as well as options for using as and as values and converting nested to .datafarme
keys
columns
values
row
dictionary
DataFrame
We will also introduce another method using pandas.DataFrame.from_dict to chain it with any of the rename methods and set the names of the index and columns in one go.
Methods for 字典
converting to PandasDataFame
Pandas DataFrame Constructor pd.DataFrame()
If you pass dictionary items as arguments to the constructor instead of the dictionary itself, then the dictionary is converted to a dataframe.
# python 3.x
import pandas as pd
fruit_dict = {3: "apple", 2: "banana", 6: "mango", 4: "apricot", 1: "kiwi", 8: "orange"}
print(pd.DataFrame(list(fruit_dict.items()), columns=["Quantity", "FruitName"]))
键
The sum of the dictionaries 值
will be converted DataFrame
to two columns with the column names 列
given in the options.
Quantity FruitName
0 3 apple
1 2 banana
2 6 mango
3 4 apricot
4 1 kiwi
5 8 orange
Methods to 键
Convert to and from in Pandas DataFrame列
值
行
We can simply put the dictionary in square brackets and remove the column names from the above code, like this:
import pandas as pd
fruit_dict = {1: "apple", 2: "banana", 3: "mango", 4: "apricot", 5: "kiwi", 6: "orange"}
print(pd.DataFrame([fruit_dict]))
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6
0 apple banana mango apricot kiwi orange
We will use pandas's 字典推导
sum concat
to combine all of them 字典
, and then pass the list to use the new列名
Consider the following code,
import pandas as pd
data = {"1": {"apple": 11, "banana": 18}, "2": {"apple": 16, "banana": 12}}
df = pd.concat({k: pd.Series(v) for k, v in data.items()}).reset_index()
df.columns = ["dict_index", "name", "quantity"]
print(df)
Output:
dict_index name quantity
0 1 apple 11
1 1 banana 18
2 2 apple 16
3 2 banana 12
pandas.DataFrame().from_dict()
Method to convert dict to dataframe
We will use from_dict to convert the dict to a dataframe, here we set orient = index to use the dictionary keys as rows and use rename()
the method to change the column names.
Consider the following code,
import pandas as pd
print(
pd.DataFrame.from_dict(
{"apple": 3, "banana": 5, "mango": 7, "apricot": 1, "kiwi": 8, "orange": 3},
orient="index",
).rename(columns={0: "Qunatity"})
)
Output:
Quantity
apple 3
banana 5
mango 7
apricot 1
kiwi 8
orange 3
