Re: [Tutor] How would I replace the data of a Pandas Series with the values of a dictionary?

Hi all,
I have a problem trying to match items in a dict and pandas series in
Python.
I have a dict ( called city_dict )of cities and city_id's ; for each city (
which is a key in the dict ), a unique city_id is a value in that dict.
So for example, city_dict = { New York : 1001, LA : 1002, Chicago : 1003 }.
New York is a key, 1001 is a value.
Now I have a panda Series called dfCities. In this series is a bunch of
cities, including the cities in city_dict.
My goal is to replace the cities in dfCities with the city_id's in a brand
new csv file. So if dfCities has New York in it, I want to replace it with
it's value in the dictionary, so 1001.
=》 check out
https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.replace.html.
It accepts a dict, see also examples below.

[Tutor] pass arg to list
Hi, I'm trying to pass arguments to list. This script needs to generate csv files. I want to pass the version and build number to the script and it should be passed to the list. My script below is blowing index out of range after adding the args. However, if I hardcode the version, it works fine. Kindly advise. # User Args version = sys.argv[1] build = sys.argv[2] add_file = ( ['AddFile', 109102010, 'Product-'+version + 'Package (Build' + build + ')', 'Product-'+version+'-b'+build+'-package.pkg', 'Product-'+version + 'Service Package (Build' + build + ')', version, ''], ) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/atamsekar/Projects/PulseSO/trunk/swrelease/samplexls.py", line 5, in version = sys.argv[1] IndexError: list index out of range Process finished with exit code 1 -Thanks, Anirudh Tamsekar ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

If that doesn't help show us your full code (including import statements) and your full execution output, including whree you call the program. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

How are you calling your script? If you are running it from an IDE you need to tell the IDE to include command line arguments. If you run it like this, from the operating system's command line: python samplexls.py then there are no command line arguments and sys.argv[1] will be out of range. You need to run something like this: python samplexls.py argument1 argument2 Try putting: print(sys.argv) at the start of your script and see what is there. -- Steven ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Hopefully this is not to of a open question. It's a good question. You have an answer that directs you to the Python tutorial. If you want to go beyond that, the Python Wiki has many suggestions https://wiki.python.org/moin/WebProgramming> and for frameworks specifically https://wiki.python.org/moin/WebFrameworks> (some may be out of date though). Each has a short description, you can use that to gauge whether you want to explore. -- \ “The Initial Mystery that attends any journey is: how did the | `\ traveller reach his starting point in the first place?” —Louise | _o__) Bogan, _Journey Around My Room_ | Ben Finney ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

I am more commonly using: * Top of file has a brief (3-line) declaration, in a comment, that this is free software, you are free to modify and redistribute under certain conditions; see the end of the file. * End of file has full copyright information: copyright statements (years and holders), standard boilerplate grant of freedoms, disclaimer of warranty, and specific filename where the full legal license document is to be found. > Aside from possibly irritating 'the good guys', does such really > 'stop' a determined rapscallion? The good guys also need to have a clear idea of exactly who claims what, and exactly what freedoms they have in exactly what work when they receive it. Files have a tendency to migrate from work to work, and so it's not uncommon to have multiple works combined with different declarations that apply. It's good to attach this information directly in the file. I see no good reason why it needs to be all at the top of the file, though. To my eye, a very brief “you're free to do this set of things, see the end of this file for details” is notifying the reader without over-burdening them every time they open the file. -- \ “Theology is the effort to explain the unknowable in terms of | `\ the not worth knowing.” —Henry L.
