如何在Pandas中将两个DataFrame彼此相邻堆叠？

Question

I have two sets of stock data in DataFrames:

> GOOG.head()
           Open   High    Low 
Date                                                                            
2011-01-03  21.01  21.05  20.78 
2011-01-04  21.12  21.20  21.05 
2011-01-05  21.19  21.21  20.90 
2011-01-06  20.67  20.82  20.55 
2011-01-07  20.71  20.77  20.27

AAPL.head()
              Open    High     Low
Date                              
2011-01-03  596.48  605.59  596.48
2011-01-04  605.62  606.18  600.12
2011-01-05  600.07  610.33  600.05
2011-01-06  610.68  618.43  610.05
2011-01-07  615.91  618.25  610.13

and I would like to stack them next two each other in a single DataFrame so I can access and compare columns (eg High) across stocks (GOOG vs. AAPL)? What is the best way to do this in Pandas and access the subsequent columns (eg GOOG's High column and AAPL's High column). Thanks!

Answer 1

pd.concat is also an option

In [17]: pd.concat([GOOG, AAPL], keys=['GOOG', 'AAPL'], axis=1)
Out[17]:
             GOOG                  AAPL
             Open   High    Low    Open    High     Low
Date
2011-01-03  21.01  21.05  20.78  596.48  605.59  596.48
2011-01-04  21.12  21.20  21.05  605.62  606.18  600.12
2011-01-05  21.19  21.21  20.90  600.07  610.33  600.05
2011-01-06  20.67  20.82  20.55  610.68  618.43  610.05
2011-01-07  20.71  20.77  20.27  615.91  618.25  610.13

Answer 2

Have a look at the join method of dataframes, use the lsuffix and rsuffix attributes to create new names for the joined columns. It works like this:

>>> x
          A         B         C
0  0.838119 -1.116730  0.167998
1 -1.143761  0.051970  0.216113
2 -0.614441  0.208978 -0.630988
3  0.114902 -0.248791 -0.503172
4  0.836523 -0.802074  1.478333
>>> y
          A         B         C
0 -0.455859 -0.488645 -1.618088
1 -2.295255  0.524681  1.021320
2 -0.484612  1.101463 -0.081476
3 -0.475076  0.915797 -0.998777
4 -0.847538  0.057044  1.053533
>>> x.join(y, lsuffix="_x", rsuffix="_y")
        A_x       B_x       C_x       A_y       B_y       C_y
0  0.838119 -1.116730  0.167998 -0.455859 -0.488645 -1.618088
1 -1.143761  0.051970  0.216113 -2.295255  0.524681  1.021320
2 -0.614441  0.208978 -0.630988 -0.484612  1.101463 -0.081476
3  0.114902 -0.248791 -0.503172 -0.475076  0.915797 -0.998777
