Last update on December 21 2024 07:51:58 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Pandas program to count year-country wise frequency of reporting dates of unidentified flying object (UFO).

Sample Solution :

Python Code :

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv(r'ufo.csv')
df['Date_time'] = df['Date_time'].astype('datetime64[ns]')
print("Original Dataframe:")
print(df.head())
df['Year'] = df['Date_time'].apply(lambda x: "%d" % (x.year))
result = df.groupby(['Year', 'country']).size()
print("\nCountry-year wise frequency of reporting dates of UFO:")
print(result)

Sample Output:

Original Dataframe:
            Date_time                  city     ...       latitude   longitude
0 1949-10-10 20:30:00            san marcos     ...      29.883056  -97.941111

2 1955-10-10 17:00:00  chester (uk/england)     ...      53.200000   -2.916667

4 1960-10-10 20:00:00               kaneohe     ...      21.418056 -157.803611
