Pandas: Add leading zeros to the character column in a pandas series and makes the length of the field to 8 digit
Pandas: String and Regular Expression Exercise-4 with Solution
Write a Pandas program to add leading zeros to the character column in a pandas series and makes the length of the field to 8 digit.
Sample Solution:
Python Code :
import pandas as pd
nums = {'amount': ['10', '250', '3000', '40000', '500000']}
print("Original dataframe:")
df = pd.DataFrame(nums)
print(df)
print("\nAdd leading zeros:")
df['amount'] = list(map(lambda x: x.zfill(10), df['amount']))
print(df)
Sample Output:
Original dataframe: amount 0 10 1 250 2 3000 3 40000 4 500000 Add leading zeros: amount 0 0000000010 1 0000000250 2 0000003000 3 0000040000 4 0000500000

Python: Cache results with decorators
There is a great way to cache functions with decorators in Python. Caching will help save time and precious resources when there is an expensive function at hand.
Implementation is easy, just import lru_cache from functools library and decorate your function using @lru_cache.
from functools import lru_cache @lru_cache(maxsize=None) def fibo(a): if a <= 1: return a else: return fibo(a-1) + fibo(a-2) for i in range(20): print(fibo(i), end="|") print("\n\n", fibo.cache_info())
Output:
0|1|1|2|3|5|8|13|21|34|55|89|144|233|377|610|987|1597|2584|4181| CacheInfo(hits=36, misses=20, maxsize=None, currsize=20)
