Viewing the bottom rows of a DataFrame is crucial to quickly check the last entries of your dataset, especially when working with large data. In pandas, the tail()
method is used for this purpose.
Here's a tutorial on how to view the bottom rows of a DataFrame using pandas:
First, make sure you have pandas installed:
pip install pandas
import pandas as pd
data = { 'A': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10], 'B': [10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1], 'C': list(range(10, 20)) } df = pd.DataFrame(data)
By default, the tail()
method shows the last 5 rows:
print(df.tail())
But, similar to head()
, you can specify a different number of rows by providing an integer argument to the tail()
method:
print(df.tail(3)) # Displays the last 3 rows
The tail()
method returns the last n
rows from the DataFrame. Without any argument, it will default to 5 rows, but you can specify any number as per your requirement.
This method is particularly helpful when you want to check the recent entries in a time-series dataset or to verify if data was appended correctly to the end of a DataFrame.
The tail()
method in pandas provides a straightforward way to view the last few rows of a DataFrame. When combined with the head()
method, it becomes a powerful tool for initial data inspection, ensuring that you're seeing both the beginning and the end of your dataset.
View last rows of DataFrame in Pandas:
tail()
function to display the last rows of the DataFrame.last_rows = df.tail()
Displaying bottom records in Pandas DataFrame:
tail()
method.bottom_records = df.tail(10) # Display bottom 10 rows
Pandas show last n rows:
tail()
function.last_n_rows = df.tail(5) # Display last 5 rows
How to use tail() in Pandas:
tail()
method as a quick way to inspect the last rows.preview_end_data = df.tail()
Preview data with Pandas tail function:
tail()
function.preview_end = df.tail()
Displaying bottom rows of a specific column in Pandas:
tail()
method.bottom_column_values = df['Column_Name'].tail()
Show bottom rows after sorting in Pandas:
tail()
.sorted_df = df.sort_values(by='Column_Name') bottom_sorted_rows = sorted_df.tail()
Using tail() with large DataFrames in Pandas:
tail()
to large DataFrames for a quick overview without overwhelming output.quick_look_end_large_df = df.tail(10)
Quick look at the end of data using Pandas tail():
tail()
for a brief examination of the DataFrame's end.quick_look_end = df.tail()
