pandas count occurrences of unique values in column code example

Example 1: return count of unique values pandas

#TO count repetition of each unique values(to find How many times the same-
# unique value is appearing in the data)

item_counts = df["Your_Column"].value_counts()
#Returns Dictionary => {"Value_name" : number_of_appearences}

Example 2: how to count number of unique values in a column python

pd.value_counts(df.Account_Type)

Gold        3
Platinum    1
Name: Account_Type, dtype: int64

Example 3: unique values in dataframe column count

df.groupby('mID').agg(['count', 'size', 'nunique']).stack()


             dID  hID  uID
mID                       
A   count      5    5    5
    size       5    5    5
    nunique    3    5    5
B   count      2    2    2
    size       2    2    2
    nunique    2    2    2
C   count      1    1    1
    size       1    1    1
    nunique    1    1    1

Example 4: how to count unique values in a column dataframe in python

dataframe.column.nunique()

Example 5: python - count how many unique in a column

df['var_1'].nunique()   # How many unque values are present in a variable

Example 6: pandas count occurrences of certain value in row

print df
  col1 education
0    a       9th
1    b       9th
2    c       8th

print df.education == '9th'
0     True
1     True
2    False
Name: education, dtype: bool

print df[df.education == '9th']
  col1 education
0    a       9th
1    b       9th

print df[df.education == '9th'].shape[0]
2
print len(df[df['education'] == '9th'])
2
