Print very long string in Pandas dataframe

I have a Pandas data frame containing a very long string:

df = pd.DataFrame({'one' : ['one', 'two',
      'This is very long string very long string very long string veryvery long string']})

When I print it, I see only part of the string. I tried:

• using print(df.iloc[2]).
• using to_html.
• using to_string.
• to increase column width by using Pandas display option.

I also do not get how set_printoptions would solve this.

You can use options.display.max_colwidth to specify you want to see more in the default representation:

In [2]: df
Out[2]:
                                                 one
0                                                one
1                                                two
2  This is very long string very long string very...

In [3]: pd.options.display.max_colwidth
Out[3]: 50

In [4]: pd.options.display.max_colwidth = 100

In [5]: df
Out[5]:
                                                                               one
0                                                                              one
1                                                                              two
2  This is very long string very long string very long string veryvery long string

And indeed, if you just want to inspect the one value, by accessing it (as a scalar, not as a row as df.iloc[2] does) you also see the full string:

In [7]: df.iloc[2,0]    # or df.loc[2,'one']
Out[7]: 'This is very long string very long string very long string veryvery long string'
