Introduction
In this lab, we will learn how to use the DataFrame.first()
method in Pandas. The DataFrame.first()
method selects the initial periods of time series data based on a date offset. This can be useful when working with a DataFrame that has dates as the index and you want to select the first few rows based on a specific date offset.
VM Tips
After the VM startup is done, click the top left corner to switch to the Notebook tab to access Jupyter Notebook for practice.
Sometimes, you may need to wait a few seconds for Jupyter Notebook to finish loading. The validation of operations cannot be automated because of limitations in Jupyter Notebook.
If you face issues during learning, feel free to ask Labby. Provide feedback after the session, and we will promptly resolve the problem for you.
