Получить первые n записей фрейма данных Pandas

Опубликовано: 27 Марта, 2022

Let us see how to fetch the first n records of a Pandas DataFrame. Lets first make a dataframe :

# Import Required Library
import pandas as pd
  
# Create a dictionary for the dataframe
dict = {"Name" : ["Sumit Tyagi", "Sukritin",
                  "Akriti Goel", "Sanskriti",
                  "Abhishek Jain"],
        "Age":[22, 20, 45, 21, 22],
        "Marks":[90, 84, 33, 87, 82]}
  
# Converting Dictionary to Pandas Dataframe
df = pd.DataFrame(dict)
  
# Print Dataframe
print(df)

Output : 
 

Method 1 : Using head() method. Use pandas.DataFrame.head(n) to get the first n rows of the DataFrame. It takes one optional argument n (number of rows you want to get from the start). By default n = 5, it return first 5 rows if value of n is not passed to the method.

# Getting first 3 rows from df
df_first_3 = df.head(3)
  
# Printing df_first_3
print(df_first_3)

Output : 
 

Method 2 : Using pandas.DataFrame.iloc(). Use pandas.DataFrame.iloc() to get the first n rows. It is similar to the list slicing.

# Getting first 3 rows from df
df_first_3 = df.iloc[:3]
  
# Printing df_first_3
print(df_first_3)

Output :

Method 3 : Display first n records of specific columns

# Getting first 2 rows of columns Age and Marks from df
df_first_2 = df[["Age", "Marks"]].head(2)
  
# Printing df_first_2
print(df_first_2)

Output : 
 

Method 4 : Display first n records from last n columns. Display first n records for the last n columns using pandas.DataFrame.iloc()

# Getting first n rows and last n columns from df
df_first_2_row_last_2_col = df.iloc[:2, -2:]
  
# Printing df_first_2_row_last_2_col
print(df_first_2_row_last_2_col)
