How to get datatypes of all columns using a single command [ Python - Pandas ]?
10 min to pandas has nice example for DataFrame.dtypes
:
df2 = pd.DataFrame({
'A' : 1.,
'B' : pd.Timestamp('20130102'),
'C' : pd.Series(1,index=list(range(4)),dtype='float32'),
'D' : np.array([3] * 4,dtype='int32'),
'E' : pd.Categorical(["test","train","test","train"]),
'F' : 'foo' })
print (df2)
A B C D E F
0 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 test foo
1 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 train foo
2 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 test foo
3 1.0 2013-01-02 1.0 3 train foo
print (df2.dtypes)
A float64
B datetime64[ns]
C float32
D int32
E category
F object
dtype: object
But with dtypes=object
it is a bit complicated (generally, obviously it is string
):
Sample:
df = pd.DataFrame({'strings':['a','d','f'],
'dicts':[{'a':4}, {'c':8}, {'e':9}],
'lists':[[4,8],[7,8],[3]],
'tuples':[(4,8),(7,8),(3,)],
'sets':[set([1,8]), set([7,3]), set([0,1])] })
print (df)
dicts lists sets strings tuples
0 {'a': 4} [4, 8] {8, 1} a (4, 8)
1 {'c': 8} [7, 8] {3, 7} d (7, 8)
2 {'e': 9} [3] {0, 1} f (3,)
All values have same dtypes
:
print (df.dtypes)
dicts object
lists object
sets object
strings object
tuples object
dtype: object
But type
is different, if need check it by loop:
for col in df:
print (df[col].apply(type))
0 <class 'dict'>
1 <class 'dict'>
2 <class 'dict'>
Name: dicts, dtype: object
0 <class 'list'>
1 <class 'list'>
2 <class 'list'>
Name: lists, dtype: object
0 <class 'set'>
1 <class 'set'>
2 <class 'set'>
Name: sets, dtype: object
0 <class 'str'>
1 <class 'str'>
2 <class 'str'>
Name: strings, dtype: object
0 <class 'tuple'>
1 <class 'tuple'>
2 <class 'tuple'>
Name: tuples, dtype: object
Or first value of columns with iat
:
print (type(df['strings'].iat[0]))
<class 'str'>
print (type(df['dicts'].iat[0]))
<class 'dict'>
print (type(df['lists'].iat[0]))
<class 'list'>
print (type(df['tuples'].iat[0]))
<class 'tuple'>
print (type(df['sets'].iat[0]))
<class 'set'>
Use the DataFrame.info() method
>>> df.info()
RangeIndex: 5 entries, 0 to 4
Data columns (total 3 columns):
# Column Non-Null Count Dtype
--- ------ -------------- -----
0 int_col 5 non-null int64
1 text_col 5 non-null object
2 float_col 5 non-null float64
dtypes: float64(1), int64(1), object(1)
memory usage: 248.0+ bytes
