I'm trying to merge 2 DataFrames using concat
, on their DateTime Index, but it's not working as I expected. I copied some of this code from the example in the documentation for this example:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({'year': [2015, 2016],
'month': [2, 3],
'day': [4, 5],
'value': [444,555]})
df.set_index(pd.to_datetime(df.loc[:,['year','month','day']]),inplace=True)
df.drop(['year','month','day'],axis=1,inplace=True)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(data=[222,333],
index=pd.to_datetime(['2015-02-04','2016-03-05']))
pd.concat([df,df2])
Out[1]:
value 0
2015-02-04 444.0 NaN
2016-03-05 555.0 NaN
2015-02-04 NaN 222.0
2016-03-05 NaN 333.0
Why isn't it recognizing the same dates on the index and merging accordingly? I verified that both Indexes are DateTime:
df.index
Out[2]: DatetimeIndex(['2015-02-04', '2016-03-05'], dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)
df2.index
Out[3]: DatetimeIndex(['2015-02-04', '2016-03-05'], dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)
Thanks.
pass axis=1
to concatenate column-wise:
In [7]:
pd.concat([df,df2], axis=1)
Out[7]:
value 0
2015-02-04 444 222
2016-03-05 555 333
Alternatively you could've join
ed:
In [5]:
df.join(df2)
Out[5]:
value 0
2015-02-04 444 222
2016-03-05 555 333
or merge
d:
In [8]:
df.merge(df2, left_index=True, right_index=True)
Out[8]:
value 0
2015-02-04 444 222
2016-03-05 555 333
You need axis=1:
pd.concat([df,df2], axis=1)
Output:
value 0
2015-02-04 444 222
2016-03-05 555 333
