Let’s discuss how to Concatenate two columns of dataframe in pandas python. We can do this by using the following functions :
- concat()
- append()
- join()
Example 1 : Using the concat()
method.
# importing the module import pandas as pd # creating 2 DataFrames location = pd.DataFrame({ 'area' : [ 'new-york' , 'columbo' , 'mumbai' ]}) food = pd.DataFrame({ 'food' : [ 'pizza' , 'crabs' , 'vada-paw' ]}) # concatenating the DataFrames det = pd.concat([location, food], join = 'outer' , axis = 1 ) # displaying the DataFrame print (det) |
Output :
Example 2 : Using the append()
method.
# importing the module import pandas as pd # creating 2 DataFrames first = pd.DataFrame([[ 'one' , 1 ], [ 'three' , 3 ]], columns = [ 'name' , 'word' ]) second = pd.DataFrame([[ 'two' , 2 ], [ 'four' , 4 ]], columns = [ 'name' , 'word' ]) # concatenating the DataFrames dt = first.append(second, ignore_index = True ) # displaying the DataFrame print (dt) |
Output :
Example 3 : Using the .join() method.
# importing the module import pandas as pd # creating 2 DataFrames location = pd.DataFrame({ 'area' : [ 'new-york' , 'columbo' , 'mumbai' ]}) food = pd.DataFrame({ 'food' : [ 'pizza' , 'crabs' , 'vada-paw' ]}) # concatenating the DataFrames dt = location.join(food) # displaying the DataFrame print (dt) |
Output :
For the three methods to concatenate two columns in a DataFrame, we can add different parameters to change the axis, sort, levels etc.
