In this article, we will discuss how to use count() and sort_values() in pandas. So the count in pandas counts the frequency of elements in the dataframe column and then sort sorts the dataframe according to element frequency.
- count(): This method will show you the number of values for each column in your DataFrame.
- sort_values(): This method helps us to sort our dataframe. In this method, we pass the column and our data frame is sorted according to this column.
Example 1: Program to sort data frame in descending order according to the element frequency.
Python
# import pandasimport pandas as pd  # create dataframedf = pd.DataFrame({'Name': ['Mukul', 'Rohan', 'Mukul', 'Manoj',                            'Kamal', 'Rohan', 'Robin'],                                        'age': [22, 22, 21, 20, 21, 24, 20]})  # print dataframeprint(df)  # use count() and sort()df = df.groupby(['Name'])['age'].count().reset_index(  name='Count').sort_values(['Count'], ascending=False)  # print dataframeprint(df) |
Output:
Example 2: Program to sort data frame in ascending order according to the element frequency.
Python
# import pandasimport pandas as pd  # create dataframedf = pd.DataFrame({'Name': ['Mukul', 'Rohan', 'Mukul', 'Manoj',                            'Kamal', 'Rohan', 'Robin'],                                        'age': [22, 22, 21, 20, 21, 24, 20]})  # print dataframeprint(df)  # use count() and sort()df = df.groupby(['Name'])['age'].count().reset_index(  name='Count').sort_values(['Count'], ascending=True)  # print dataframeprint(df) |
