Arithmetic Operations in Pandas

A guide on how to use arithmetic operations in Pandas.

In this post, I'll show you how to apply arithmetic operations to the dataset and implement a function.

Let's dive in.

Loading data

First of all, let's import the libraries.

image

Let me create two variables named s1 and s2.

image

Let's take a look at these variables.

image

Addition in Pandas

You can add two variables.

image

You can do the same for the data frame. To show this, let's create two datasets named df1 and df2.

image

Let's take a look at data frames.

image

You can add two data frames.

image

When you can apply arithmetic operations with different indexes, a special value such as zero can be assigned to the missing values.

Let's assign zeros to values that do not match df2 of df1 when adding two data frames.

Multiplication & Division in Pandas

You can inverse the values in the dataset.

image

Let me show multiplication.

image

You can also use the mul method for multiplication.

image

I'm going to handle the df2 again. Let me print this data.

image

Let's take a look at the first row of the df2.

image

As you can see, this row is in Serial structure. Let's subtract s from df2.

image

To select a column in the dataset, you can use the [] symbol.

You can perform arithmetic operations with a series and a data frame.

Applying a Function in Pandas

You can use NumPy functions with Pandas data structures To demonstrate this, let's first create a dataset named df.

image

Let's use the abs method in NumPy for df.

image

You can also apply a function for each column or row. To do this, you can use the apply () method. First, let's create a function.

image

Let's apply this function to the df using the apply method.

image

You can execute this function on each row using axis = 1.

image

You can use this function for the data frame. To show that, let's write a simple function.

image

Now, let me apply this function to the df.

That's it. I hope you enjoy this post. You can access the notebook here.
