Grouping and Aggregating with multiple Index Levels in Pandas

Pandas Advanced Grouping and Aggregation: Exercise-8 with Solution

Grouping and Aggregating with Multiple Index Levels:
Write a Pandas program to perform grouping and aggregation operations using multiple index levels.

Sample Solution:

Python Code :

import pandas as pd
# Sample DataFrame
data = {'Category': ['A', 'A', 'B', 'B', 'C', 'C'],
        'Type': ['X', 'Y', 'X', 'Y', 'X', 'Y'],
        'Value': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
print("Sample DataFrame:")
print(df)
# Group by 'Category' and 'Type'
print("\nGroup by 'Category' and 'Type':")
grouped = df.groupby(['Category', 'Type']).sum()
print(grouped)

Output:

Sample DataFrame:
  Category Type  Value
0        A    X      1
1        A    Y      2
2        B    X      3
3        B    Y      4
4        C    X      5
5        C    Y      6

Group by 'Category' and 'Type':
               Value
Category Type       
A        X         1
         Y         2
B        X         3
         Y         4
C        X         5
         Y         6

Explanation:

• Import pandas.
• Create a sample DataFrame.
• Group by 'Category' and 'Type'.
• Sum the grouped data.
• Print the result.
