Jupyter Notebook：无效的文件路径或缓冲区 object 类型：<class 'pandas.core.frame.dataframe'> Python</class>

Question

I am getting an error which says "Invalid file path or buffer object type: <class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>" while doing a project on Jupyter Notebook. I tried to re-install Pandas for resolving it but I am getting this error again and again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in Advance:)

Code:

url_confirmed = pd.read_csv('C:\\Users\\Pranav Jaswal\\Desktop\\COVID-19-master\\csse_covid_19_data\\csse_covid_19_time_series\\time_series_covid19_confirmed_global.csv')
url_deaths = pd.read_csv('C:\\Users\\Pranav Jaswal\\Desktop\\COVID-19-master\\csse_covid_19_data\\csse_covid_19_time_series\\time_series_covid19_deaths_global.csv')
url_recovered = pd.read_csv('C:\\Users\\Pranav Jaswal\\Desktop\\COVID-19-master\\csse_covid_19_data\\csse_covid_19_time_series\\time_series_covid19_recovered_global.csv')

df_confirmed = pd.read_csv(url_confirmed)
df_deaths = pd.read_csv(url_deaths)
df_recovered = pd.read_csv(url_recovered)

Error:

Answer 1

You are trying to pass a data frame to read_csv when it expects a file path or open file.

pd.read_csv already creates a dataframe from the CSV file. The second step is unnecessary.
