3.8 Finding the Minimum, Maximum, Sum, Average, and Count

Problem

You want to find the min, max, sum, average, or count of a numeric column.

Solution

pandas comes with some built-in methods for commonly used descriptive statistics such as min, max, mean, sum and count:

# Load library import pandas as pd # Create URL url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chrisalbon/sim_data/master/titanic.csv' # Load data dataframe = pd.read_csv(url) # Calculate statistics print('Maximum:', dataframe['Age'].max()) print('Minimum:', dataframe['Age'].min()) print('Mean:', dataframe['Age'].mean()) print('Sum:', dataframe['Age'].sum()) print('Count:', dataframe['Age'].count())
