Why is .describe show the the descriptive statistic with exponents?


Descriptive Stats in Exponential form pixHello there thanks in advance for reading. I am probably making a mistake but I was wondering why when I try to get descriptive statistics it gives them in exponential form. This is quite cumbersome to read. I have previously went through to remove the commas does that have anything to do with it.

I really would just like to have it present in plain interger form with no commas or decimals

I am sorry I didn't explain this well enough. This is my first post on stack and I am excited to be a part of the community.


Solution

  • You could try using round:

    df["column"].describe().round(1)
    

    Scientific notation is used to display very large or small values, so probably this happened because of the range of your values
