Pandas Data Series: Convert a Panda module Series to Python list and it’s type
2. Series to List Conversion
Write a Pandas program to convert a Panda module Series to Python list and it’s type.
Sample Solution :
Python Code :
import pandas as pd
ds = pd.Series([2, 4, 6, 8, 10])
print("Pandas Series and type")
print(ds)
print(type(ds))
print("Convert Pandas Series to Python list")
print(ds.tolist())
print(type(ds.tolist()))
Sample Output:
Pandas Series and type 0 2 1 4 2 6 3 8 4 10 dtype: int64 <class 'pandas.core.series.Series'> Convert Pandas Series to Python list [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] <class 'list'>
Explanation:
ds = pd.Series([2, 4, 6, 8, 10]): This code creates a Pandas Series object named 'ds' containing a sequence of five integers: 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10.
print(type(ds)): This statement prints the type of the 'ds' object using the type() function, which will be <class 'pandas.core.series.Series'>. This confirms that the object is indeed a Pandas Series.
print(ds.tolist()): This statement prints the contents of the Series object as a Python list using the tolist() method.
print(type(ds.tolist())): Finally print() function prints the type of the resulting list object using the type() function, which will be <class 'list'>.
