How to Reshape Dataframes | Pivot, Stack, Melt and More

When working with datasets you will need to change the shape and the perspective of the data. This is done sometimes for analysis purposes and sometimes just to explore the data a bit better. In this video, we learn 8 ways to change the shape of the dataframe we are working with to gain a new perspective on it. The functions we learn are:
1. pivot
2. pivot_table
3. Stack
4. Unstack
5. Melt
6. Groupby
7. Crosstab
8. Explode

Your pandas cheat sheet is WAY more understandable (to me, at least) than the official one in the pandas documentation. Thanks for making it!

[@misraturp]

Thank you Greg! Really appreciate your support!

[@arpeshmistry6550]

Nice tutorial on pivot. I have one query, is there any way we can create the data-link in pivot like we do in excel. Pls help

[@ericliu3366]

Hi I like your videos. BTW, how you get the Juypter to have output horizontal scrollable. My Anaconda Juypter cannot.😊

[@viniciusoviedo]

Awesome content...Thanks for sharing it!
Which screen recorder do you use? I really like it. Best!

[@misraturp]

Thank you Vinícius! I use ScreenFlow.

[@aakashniture]

Hi Misra, amazing video.
I have a doubt. I performed pivot_table() and after getting new columns.. I am not able to select those new columns or save one new column in new df.
E.g. in above video after pivoting you got A, B, C as new columns.. i can not select df['A']? It gives error. When i do df.shape() it shows A, B, C as columns.
Please help.

[@sanooosai]

great tutorial, Eva mendes look like you

[@misraturp]

Haha thanks!

[@jianlinchen7978]

pandas looks a little bit complex than power query. ... So what is pandas's strength?

[@pomme_paille]

I'm confused at the difference between stack and melt 😅

[@hedeyhod]

I think it's hard to understand for beginners. especially melt function. maybe you should slow down when you explain examples. thank you so much for tutorial.

[@misraturp]

You're welcome

[@bay-bicerdover]

hold the pace

[@johnspivack6520]

Thanks for the video. Brilliant person, but why talk so fast? I had to stop it about a twenty times and puzzle out what was being said. After I did, it made sense, but why not slow down to a more comfortable pace? By the way, 'SVCS' means 'Services', isn't it obvious from the context?

[@bay-bicerdover]
