I have the data set:
Class 2000 2001 2002 2003
A 1 2 3 4
B 5 5 4 4
C 2 1 5 6
And I want to have the result like this:
Class Year Value
A 2000 1
A 2001 2
A 2002 3
A 2003 4
B 2000 5
B 2001 5
B 2002 4
B 2003 4
C 2000 2
C 2001 1
C 2002 5
C 2003 6
Please help me!
You are looking to un-pivot the DataFrame, in Pandas they call it 'pandas.melt' [link]
For your example:
pandas.melt(df, id_vars=['Class'], value_vars=['2000','2001','2002','2003'])
You can use pd.melt along with sort_values() .
Since doing sort_values()
jumbles up the index, you reset_index and then rename the column
import pandas as pd
from io import StringIO
d = '''Class 2000 2001 2002 2003
A 1 2 3 4
B 5 5 4 4
C 2 1 5 6'''
df = pd.read_csv(StringIO(d), sep='\s+')
df2 = pd.melt(df, id_vars=['Class'], value_vars=['2000','2001','2002','2003']).sort_values(by=['Class'])
df2 = df2.reset_index(drop=True)
df2 = df2.rename(columns={'variable':'Year'})
print(df2)
# output
Class Year value
0 A 2000 1
1 A 2001 2
2 A 2002 3
3 A 2003 4
4 B 2000 5
5 B 2001 5
6 B 2002 4
7 B 2003 4
8 C 2000 2
9 C 2001 1
10 C 2002 5
11 C 2003 6

I created it in a method chain with a pandas feature.
df = df.set_index('Class').unstack().reset_index().rename(columns={'level_0':'Year', 0:'Value'}).sort_values(['Class','Year']).reset_index(drop=True)
df
Year Class Value
0 2000 A 1
1 2001 A 2
2 2002 A 3
3 2003 A 4
4 2000 B 5
5 2001 B 5
6 2002 B 4
7 2003 B 4
8 2000 C 2
9 2001 C 1
10 2002 C 5
11 2003 C 6
