How do you remove the column name row when exporting a pandas DataFrame?
Figured out a way to do this:
df.to_csv('filename.csv', header = False)
This tells pandas to write a csv file without the header. You can do the same with df.to_excel.
You can write to csv without the header using header=False
and without the index using index=False
. If desired, you also can modify the separator using sep
.
CSV example with no header row, omitting the header row:
df.to_csv('filename.csv', header=False)
TSV (tab-separated) example, omitting the index column:
df.to_csv('filename.tsv', sep='\t', index=False)
If you pass header=False, you will get this error
TypeError: Passing a bool to header is invalid. Use header=None
for no header or header=int or list-like of ints to specify the
row(s) making up the column names
Instead, use header=None
