Last update on December 21 2024 07:42:13 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Pandas program to convert a given list of lists into a Dataframe.

Sample Solution :

Python Code :

import pandas as pd
my_lists = [['col1', 'col2'], [2, 4], [1, 3]]
# sets the headers as list
headers = my_lists.pop(0) 
print("Original list of lists:")
print(my_lists)
df = pd.DataFrame(my_lists, columns = headers)
print("New DataFrame")
print(df)

Sample Output:

Original list of lists:
[[2, 4], [1, 3]]
New DataFrame
   col1  col2
0     2     4
1     1     3
