Having a dataframe of the form:
element1 | element2 | element3
cat bird plane
dog poodle cloud
pig bike sky
I want to convert it to a dictionary of lists of the form
{ 'element1' : ['cat', 'dog', 'pig'],
'element2' : ['bird', 'poodle', 'bike'],
'element3' : ['plane', 'cloud', 'sky'] }
I am looking at the documentation of the .to_dict
method, but none of the options seem to do what I need.
Usual to_dict bases on index elements as key values, so transpose your dataframe and apply list by row followed by dictionary conversion
df.T.apply(list,1).to_dict()
Out:
{'element1': ['cat', 'dog', 'pig'],
'element2': ['bird', 'poodle', 'bike'],
'element3': ['plane', 'cloud', 'sky']}
Use DataFrame.to_dict
with list
parameter:
d = df.to_dict('list')
print (d)
{'element1': ['cat', 'dog', 'pig'],
'element2': ['bird', 'poodle', 'bike'],
'element3': ['plane', 'cloud', 'sky']}
