# Pandas Pivot
|
|
Computes a pivot table from a pandas DataFrame.
|
|
|
|
## Note on a pivot table
|
|
A pivot table is easier to understand if we start off from the table itself:
|
|
In the below DataFrame:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Column labels
|
|
X Y Z
|
|
Index
|
|
A 1 2 3
|
|
B 4 5 6
|
|
C 7 8 9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We have index `["A", "B", "C"]` and column labels `["X", "Y", "Z"]`.
|
|
Values in this DataFrame can be accessed by specifying the index and the column label.
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
df.loc["A", "X"] # 1
|
|
df.loc["A", "Y"] # 2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, let's restructure the table by converting column labels into row values:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
A X 1
|
|
A Y 2
|
|
A Z 3
|
|
B X 4
|
|
B Y 5
|
|
B Z 6
|
|
C X 7
|
|
C Y 8
|
|
C Z 9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Let's add a column label to each of these columns:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
R C V
|
|
--------
|
|
A X 1
|
|
A Y 2
|
|
A Z 3
|
|
B X 4
|
|
B Y 5
|
|
B Z 6
|
|
C X 7
|
|
C Y 8
|
|
C Z 9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, the first two columns uniquely identify the value in the third column.
|
|
|
|
**Pivoting** is the reverse of this operation.
|
|
- You start with the table above and produce the original one.
|
|
- In pandas, this means telling it to use:
|
|
- R column: `A`, `B`, `C` as the index (row labels).
|
|
- C column: `X`, `Y`, `Z` as the column labels.
|
|
- V column: The numbers (`1, 2, 3, ...`) as the values for each cell indexed by `[A, B, or C]` and `[X, Y, or Z]`.
|
|
|
|
This can be done using:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
df.pivot(index="R", columns="C", values="V")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The result:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
X Y Z
|
|
A 1 2 3
|
|
B 4 5 6
|
|
C 7 8 9
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now the data is back to its original, structured form.
