The numeric_only parameter enables you to force the count method to only return counts for numeric variables. You can try with: In [1]: s = pd.DataFrame('a'=[1,2,5, np.nan, np.nan,3],'b'=[1,3, np.nan, np.nan,3,np.nan]) How often does the second-highest number of students appear in the dataset? print(df['Students'].value_counts().iloc[1]) The Practical Data Science blog is written by Matt Clarke, an Ecommerce and Marketing Director who specialises in data science and machine learning for marketing and retail.Looks the group by agg count column is some sort of index so not sure how to do this, I'm a beginner to Python and Panda. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to use the Pandas count technique to count the records in a Pandas dataframe. For the 2nd part of the question, If we would like drop the column by the thresh,we can try with dropna It seems silly to compare the performance of constant time operations, especially when the difference is on the level of "seriously, don't worry about it". But this seems to be a trend with other answers, so I'm doing the same for completeness.

results = pd.DataFrame(raw_data, columns = ['first_name', 'last_name', 'age', 'sex', 'Test1_Score', 'Test2_Score']) shape is more versatile and more convenient than len(), especially for interactive work (just needs to be added at the end), but len is a bit faster (see also this answer). The method has only optional parameters, meaning if you simply want to calculate value counts you can apply the method directly without needing to worry about any arguments being passed in. Loading a Sample Pandas DataFrame You didn't mention the fancy indexing capabilities of dataframes, e.g.: >>> df = pd.DataFrame({"class":[1,1,1,2,2], "value":[1,2,3,4,5]}) In case you need to get the non-NA (non-None) and NA (None) counts across different groups pulled out by groupby: gdf = df.groupby(['ColumnToGroupBy'])What percentage of values in the Students column are missing? print(df['Students'].value_counts(normalize=True, dropna=False)[NaN])

df = pd.DataFrame({'a':[1,2,np.nan], 'b':[np.nan,1,np.nan],'c':[np.nan,2,np.nan], 'd':[np.nan,np.nan,np.nan]}) The main thing to remember with the value_counts function is not to run this function on a column with too many, or all, unique values or it may be a little useless to view. Using describe() describe(self: ~FrameOrSeries, percentiles=None, include=None, exclude=None) If you’re looking for a bit more detail than just the count of records within your dataframe or series, use the describe()function and you can get additional information such as the mean, standard deviation, min, max, 25%, 50% and 75% thresholds within the data that is either a float or integer datatype column. You will not be getting counts of records that are any other datatypes, for that you may want to try some of the other functions. df.describe() As you can see from the above, not all the columns are showning counts, or any other values, in the output. To identify which columns you’ll be getting statistics on, you can use the df.dtypes function. df.dtypes The Nan example above misses one piece, which makes it less generic. To do this more "generically" use df['column_name'].value_counts() The Pandas value_counts method can also be used to bin data into different equal sized groups. This method is a convenience function for the Pandas .cut() method, and provides the number of values in each group.And here, we can see that many of the variables – like survived, pclass, and class – have 891 values. These variables are fully populated. Regards to your question... counting one Field? I decided to make it a question, but I hope it helps... For sort the rows by count of a colum, you can do this: sorted_index = df['col'].value_counts().index To perform row-wise COUNTIF/SUMIF, you can use axis=1 argument. Again, the range is given as a list of columns ( ['A', 'B']) similar to how range is fed to COUNTIF.
