Creating Pivot Tables with Correlation Analysis in Python Using Pandas
Here’s an updated version of the original code with comments explaining each step:
Code:
import pandas as pd # Load data into a DataFrame df = pd.read_csv('your_data.csv') # Create pivot tables for 'Name' and 'H' for c in ['Name', 'H']: # Filter to only include dates where the value is unique df_pivot = (df_final[df_final.value.isin(df[c].unique().tolist())] .pivot_table(index='Date', columns='value', values='Score')) # Print the pivot table print(f'Output for column {c}:') print(df_pivot) print('\nCorrelation between unique values:') print(df_pivot.
