how to remove some rows in a dataframe using pandas code example

Example 1: python code to drop columns from dataframe

# Let df be a dataframe
# Let new_df be a dataframe after dropping a column

new_df = df.drop(labels='column_name', axis=1)

# Or if you don't want to change the name of the dataframe
df = df.drop(labels='column_name', axis=1)

# Or to remove several columns
df = df.drop(['list_of_column_names'], axis=1)

# axis=0 for 'rows' and axis=1 for columns

Example 2: delete row from dataframe python

df.drop(df.index[-2])
df.drop(df.index[[3, 4]])
df.drop(['row_1', 'row_2'])
df.drop('column_1', axis=1)
df[df.name != 'cell']
