sample dataframe pandas code example

Example 1: pandas sample seed

>>> df.sample(frac=0.5, replace=True, random_state=1)
      num_legs  num_wings  num_specimen_seen
dog          4          0                  2
fish         0          0                  8

Example 2: sample based on column pandas

df1 = df[df['a']==1].sample(n=50)
df0 = df[df['a']==0].sample(n=50)
print(pd.concat([df1,df0]))

Example 3: pandas sample

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'num_legs': [2, 4, 8, 0],
...                    'num_wings': [2, 0, 0, 0],
...                    'num_specimen_seen': [10, 2, 1, 8]},
...                   index=['falcon', 'dog', 'spider', 'fish'])
>>> df
        num_legs  num_wings  num_specimen_seen
falcon         2          2                 10
dog            4          0                  2
spider         8          0                  1
fish           0          0                  8
