pandas_summary
An extension to pandas dataframes describe function.
The module contains DataFrameSummary object that extend describe() with:
- properties
- dfs.columns_stats: counts, uniques, missing, missing_perc, and type per column
- dsf.columns_types: a count of the types of columns
- dfs[column]: more in depth summary of the column
- function
- summary(): extends the
describe()function with the values withcolumns_stats
- summary(): extends the
Installation
The module can be easily installed with pip:
> pip install pandas-summary
This module depends on numpy and pandas. Optionally you can get also some nice visualisations if you have matplotlib installed.
Tests
To run the tests, execute the command python setup.py test
Usage
The module contains one class:
DataFrameSummary
The DataFrameSummary expect a pandas DataFrame to summarise.
