I had a dataframe and did a groupby in FIPS and summed the groups that worked fine.
kl = ks.groupby('FIPS') kl.aggregate(np.sum)
I just want a normal Dataframe back but I have a pandas.core.groupby.DataFrameGroupBy object.
There is a question that sounds like this one but it is not the same.
The result of kl.aggregate(np.sum) is a normal DataFrame, you just have to assign it to a variable to further use it. With some random data:
>>> df = DataFrame({'A' : ['foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'bar', >>> 'foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'foo'], ... 'B' : ['one', 'one', 'two', 'three', ... 'two', 'two', 'one', 'three'], ... 'C' : randn(8), 'D' : randn(8)}) >>> grouped = df.groupby('A') >>> grouped <pandas.core.groupby.DataFrameGroupBy object at 0x04E2F630> >>> test = grouped.aggregate(np.sum) >>> test C D A bar -1.852376 2.204224 foo -3.398196 -0.045082
df_g.apply(lambda x: x)
will return the original dataframe.
