pandas- drop column with duplicated header after performing 'asfreq'





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}







0















I have data like



DATE      COUNT
2018-01-01 1
2018-01-02 1
2018-01-06 1
2018-01-07 1


I use df=df.asfreq('D', fill_value=0) to fill in the missing dates:



           DATE            COUNT
DATE
2018-01-01 2018-01-01 1
2018-01-02 2018-01-02 1
2018-01-03 0
2018-01-04 0
2018-01-05 0
2018-01-06 2018-01-06 1
2018-01-07 2018-01-07 1


How would I delete the original DATE featuring missing dates?

  • You can use df.drop("DATE", axis=1). This will leave the index DATE in place.

    df.set_index('DATE').asfreq('D', fill_value=0), won't have the duplicate column. Do you set your index to DATE somewhere without dropping the column?

Assuming that the index is datetime, you could also resample by mean to the original sample rate of this dataframe. This would keep the original data and put NaNs when data is missing.



df = df.resample('D').mean()


If you want to fill the missing date's with 0's you can do:



df = df.resample('D').mean().fillna(0)
