Python | Pandas Series.reset_index()

Pandas series is a One-dimensional ndarray with axis labels. The labels need not be unique but must be a hashable type. The object supports both integer- and label-based indexing and provides a host of methods for performing operations involving the index. Pandas Series.reset_index() function generate a new DataFrame or Series with the index reset. This comes handy when index is need to be used as a column.

Syntax: Series.reset_index(level=None, drop=False, name=None, inplace=False) Parameter : level : For a Series with a MultiIndex drop : Just reset the index, without inserting it as a column in the new DataFrame. name : The name to use for the column containing the original Series values. inplace : Modify the Series in place Returns : result : Series

Example #1: Use Series.reset_index() function to reset the index of the given Series object. Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series([10, 25, 3, 11, 24, 6])

# Create the Index
index_ = ['Coca Cola', 'Sprite', 'Coke', 'Fanta', 'Dew', 'ThumbsUp']

# set the index
sr.index = index_

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output : Now we will use Series.reset_index() function to reset the index of the given series object. Python3 1==

# reset the index
result = sr.reset_index()

# Print the result
print(result)

Output : As we can see in the output, the Series.reset_index() function has reset the index of the given Series object to default. It has preserved the index and it has converted it to a column.   Example #2: Use Series.reset_index() function to reset the index of the given Series object. Do not keep the original index labels of the given series object. Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series([10, 25, 3, 11, 24, 6])

# Create the Index
index_ = ['Coca Cola', 'Sprite', 'Coke', 'Fanta', 'Dew', 'ThumbsUp']

# set the index
sr.index = index_

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output : Now we will use Series.reset_index() function to reset the index of the given series object and also we will be dropping the original index labels. Python3 1==

# reset the index
result = sr.reset_index(drop = True)

# Print the result
print(result)

Output : As we can see in the output, the Series.reset_index() function has reset the index of the given Series object to default. It has dropped the original index.
