[英]pandas sort_values is working outside a for loop, but not inside?
I am trying to write a for loop that will take a dataframe with census data, count the populations of the three largest counties of each state, and write the sum to a new series. 我正在尝试编写一个for循环,该循环将使用具有普查数据的数据框,计算每个州的三个最大县的人口,并将总和写入新的序列。 Here is the function that is not working: 这是无法使用的功能:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
##created a dataframe earlier with a census csv file called 'census_df'
def bad_function():
only_counties = census_df.set_index(['STNAME'])
ser = pd.Series(index = only_counties.index)
ser = ser.index.drop_duplicates() ##get a unique list of all 50 states from the dataframe
state_name = pd.Series(index = ser)
for i in state_name.index:
a = only_counties.loc[i, 'CENSUS2010POP']
a = a.sort_values(ascending=False)
population = np.sum(a[0:3])
state_name.loc[i] = population
return state_name
When I call this function, I get the following error: 当我调用此函数时,出现以下错误:
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-59-dc2686648261> in <module>()
26 return state_name
27
---> 28 answer_six()
<ipython-input-59-dc2686648261> in answer_six()
18 for i in state_name.index:
19 a = only_counties.loc[i, 'CENSUS2010POP']
---> 20 a = a.sort_values(ascending=False)
21
22 population = np.sum(a[0:3])
AttributeError: 'numpy.int64' object has no attribute 'sort_values'
HOWEVER, when I ditched the loop for testing purposes and selected one item('Alabama') from the index of what I am trying to iterate over, and use the same sort_values method in the same way, it works just fine. 但是,当我出于测试目的放弃循环并从我要迭代的索引中选择一个项目(“阿拉巴马州”),并以相同的方式使用相同的sort_values方法时,它就可以正常工作。 Like this: 像这样:
def bad_function():
only_counties = census_df.set_index(['STNAME'])
ser = pd.Series(index = only_counties.index)
ser = ser.index.drop_duplicates()
state_name = pd.Series(index = ser)
a = only_counties.loc['Alabama', 'CENSUS2010POP']
a = a.sort_values(ascending=False)
b = np.sum(a[0:3])
return a, b
It returns exactly what I want, which is a: a list of counties in the state sorted by population and b: the sum of the three highest population counties. 它恰好返回我想要的内容,它是:a:按人口排序的州列表,b:三个人口最高的县的总和。 So what is happening? 那到底是怎么回事?
Are you the following: 您是以下人员吗?
for i in state_name.index:
print (I)
prints the state names or index? 打印状态名称或索引?
