I am new to using python with data sets and am trying to exclude a column ("id") from being shown in the output. Wondering how to go about this using the describe() and exclude functions.
describe
works on the datatypes. You can include or exclude based on the datatype & not based on columns. If your column id
is of unique data type, then
df.describe(exclude=[datatype])
or if you just want to remove the column(s) in describe
, then try this
cols = set(df.columns) - {'id'}
df1 = df[list(cols)]
df1.describe()
TaDa its done. For more info on describe
