I need to change the type of few columns in a pandas dataframe. Can't do so using iloc
I guess it is a bug in 1.0.5
. I tested on my 1.0.5
. I have the same issue as yours. The .loc
also has the same issue, so I guess pandas devs break something in iloc/loc
. You need to update to latest pandas or use a workaround. If you need a workaround, using assignment as follows
df1[df1.columns[0:27]] = df1.iloc[:, 0:27].astype('int')
I tested it. Above way overcomes this bug. It will turn first 27 columns to dtype int32
