Pandas Practice Set-1: Pass a list of data types to only describe certain types of diamonds DataFrame

Pandas Practice Set-1: Exercise-25 with Solution

Write a Pandas program to pass a list of data types to only describe certain types of diamonds DataFrame.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import pandas as pd
diamonds = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mwaskom/seaborn-data/master/diamonds.csv')
print("Original Dataframe:")
print(diamonds.head())
print("\nList of data types to only describe certain types:")
print(diamonds.describe(include=['object', 'float64']))

Sample Output:

Original Dataframe:
