Renaming the Column

In the previous chapter, you dealt with the incorrect values in a column. It is an excellent time to fix any changes. In our case, we can rename the column to pin that it was changed.

To rename a column, use the .rename() method. Look at the example where we will rename the column 'Survived', and then output the column names.


              
1234

            
import pandas as pd
data = pd.read_csv('https://codefinity-content-media.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/4bf24830-59ba-4418-969b-aaf8117d522e/titanic4.csv', index_col = 0)
data.rename(columns = {'Survived': 'Survived_Passenger'}, inplace = True)
print(data.columns)
copy

Explanation:

python

  • .rename() - a method that we apply to the dataset to rename columns name;

  • columns = {'Survived': 'Survived_Passenger'} - in the curly brackets, you specify all columns and their new names. In this case, we renamed just one column, but you can put several of them here separated by commas.

.columns - an attribute that outputs the column names. In our case, we can no longer see the column name 'Survived'.
