pandas concat ignore_index doesn't work

Question

I am trying to column-bind dataframes and having issue with pandas concat, as ignore_index=True doesn\'t seem to work:

df1 = pd.Dat         


        

Answer 1

The ignore_index option is working in your example, you just need to know that it is ignoring the axis of concatenation which in your case is the columns. (Perhaps a better name would be ignore_labels.) If you want the concatenation to ignore the index labels, then your axis variable has to be set to 0 (the default).
