I am trying to write a paper in IPython notebook, but encountered some issues with display format. Say I have following dataframe df, is there any way to format var1 and var2 into 2 digit decimals and var3 into percentages.
var1 var2 var3
id
0 1.458315 1.500092 -0.005709
1 1.576704 1.608445 -0.005122
2 1.629253 1.652577 -0.004754
3 1.669331 1.685456 -0.003525
4 1.705139 1.712096 -0.003134
5 1.740447 1.741961 -0.001223
6 1.775980 1.770801 -0.001723
7 1.812037 1.799327 -0.002013
8 1.853130 1.822982 -0.001396
9 1.943985 1.868401 0.005732
The numbers inside are not multiplied by 100, e.g. -0.0057=-0.57%.
replace the values using the round function, and format the string representation of the percentage numbers:
df['var2'] = pd.Series([round(val, 2) for val in df['var2']], index = df.index)
df['var3'] = pd.Series(["{0:.2f}%".format(val * 100) for val in df['var3']], index = df.index)
The round function rounds a floating point number to the number of decimal places provided as second argument to the function.
String formatting allows you to represent the numbers as you wish. You can change the number of decimal places shown by changing the number before the f.
p.s. I was not sure if your 'percentage' numbers had already been multiplied by 100. If they have then clearly you will want to change the number of decimals displayed, and remove the hundred multiplication.
