Pandas – How to Print the Entire DataFrame in Python

Python is used in various fields such as data analysis, web development, and automation. Pandas is used for data analysis and manipulation. Pandas offer a powerful tool called DataFrame, which allows you to manipulate, analyze, and visualize data in a tabular format.

In this article, we will discuss how to print the entire DataFrame in Python using different methods. We will also look at customizing the DataFrame output and saving it as a file in various formats.

 

Installing Pandas

To follow along with this article, you need to have Pandas installed on your system. If you haven’t already installed it, you can do so using the following command:

pip install pandas

 

Displaying the DataFrame

Let’s check how to display the DataFrame data:

 

Importing Data

Before we can display a DataFrame, we need to import some data. For this example, we will create a simple DataFrame from a dictionary.

import pandas as pd

data = {
    'Name': ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie', 'David'],
    'Age': [25, 30, 35, 40],
    'Country': ['USA', 'UK', 'Australia', 'Canada']
}

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

 

1) Using the print() Function

The simplest way to display the entire DataFrame is by using the print() function:

print(df)

 

2) Using the display() Function

Another way to display the DataFrame is by using the display() function from the IPython.display module. This method provides a more visually appealing output when using Jupyter Notebook or JupyterLab.

from IPython.display import display

display(df)

 

Customizing DataFrame Output

In this section we will discuss how to format the max rows columns and also how to format the floats:

 

Changing Maximum Rows and Columns

By default, Pandas limits the number of rows and columns displayed. To display the entire DataFrame, we can adjust these settings using the pd.set_option() function:

pd.set_option('display.max_rows', None)
pd.set_option('display.max_columns', None)

Formatting Floats in DataFrames

To customize the display of float values in a DataFrame, use the pd.options.display.float_format option:

pd.options.display.float_format = '{:,.2f}'.format

 

Saving the DataFrame as a File

Lets discuss how to save the DataFrame in various formats:

 

1) Saving as CSV

To save the DataFrame as a CSV file, use the to_csv() method:

df.to_csv('data.csv', index=False)

 

2) Saving as Excel

To save the DataFrame as an Excel file, first, install the openpyxl package:

pip install openpyxl

Then, use the <span class="hljs-built_in">to_excel</span>() method:

df.to_excel('data.xlsx', index=False, engine='openpyxl')

 

3) Saving as HTML

To save the DataFrame as an HTML file, use the to_html() method:

df.to_html('data.html', index=False)

 

Conclusion

In this article, we discussed various ways to print the entire DataFrame in Python using the print() and display() functions.

We also looked at customizing the DataFrame output, including changing the maximum rows and columns and formatting float values. We also explored different methods for saving the DataFrame as a file in various formats, such as CSV, Excel, and HTML.
