I have this dataframe:
value
time
2016-12-01 00:00:00 NaN
2016-12-01 00:01:00 2
2016-12-01 00:02:00 1
I want convert this dataframe to a list of lists, likes this:
[['2016-12-01 00:00:00', NaN],['2016-12-01 00:01:00', 2],['2016-12-01 00:02:00', 1]]
I tried df.values
or df.values.tolist()
and always receive:
[[ nan]
[ 2]
[ 1]]
If you call reset_index
to restore the index, you can then call .values.tolist()
to get the desired result:
In [117]:
df.reset_index().values.tolist()
Out[117]:
[['2016-12-01 00:00:00', nan],
['2016-12-01 00:01:00', 2.0],
['2016-12-01 00:02:00', 1.0]]
values
returns a numpy array, this has a method tolist()
to convert to a list of lists
Need DataFrame.reset_index
first, DataFrame.values
return numpy array
and tolist()
convert it to nested list
:
print (df.index)
Index(['2016-12-01 00:00:00', '2016-12-01 00:01:00', '2016-12-01 00:02:00'],
dtype='object', name='time')
print (df.reset_index().values.tolist())
[['2016-12-01 00:00:00', nan], ['2016-12-01 00:01:00', 2.0], ['2016-12-01 00:02:00', 1.0]]
But if DatetimeIndex
is necessary convert index
to string
by astype
:
print (df.index)
DatetimeIndex(['2016-12-01 00:00:00', '2016-12-01 00:01:00',
'2016-12-01 00:02:00'],
dtype='datetime64[ns]', name='time', freq=None)
print (df.reset_index().values.tolist())
[[Timestamp('2016-12-01 00:00:00'), nan],
[Timestamp('2016-12-01 00:01:00'), 2.0],
[Timestamp('2016-12-01 00:02:00'), 1.0]]
df.index = df.index.astype(str)
print (df.reset_index().values.tolist())
[['2016-12-01 00:00:00', nan], ['2016-12-01 00:01:00', 2.0], ['2016-12-01 00:02:00', 1.0]]
