Last update on December 21 2024 07:42:16 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Pandas program to get first n records of a DataFrame.

Sample Solution :

Python Code :

import pandas as pd
d = {'col1': [1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 11], 'col2': [4, 5, 6, 9, 5, 0], 'col3': [7, 5, 8, 12, 1,11]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data=d)
print("Original DataFrame")
print(df)
print("\nFirst 3 rows of the said DataFrame':")
df1 = df.head(3)
print(df1)

Sample Output:

Original DataFrame
   col1  col2  col3
0     1     4     7
1     2     5     5
2     3     6     8
3     4     9    12
4     7     5     1
5    11     0    11

First 3 rows of the said DataFrame':
   col1  col2  col3
0     1     4     7
1     2     5     5
2     3     6     8
