Answer 1

You can execute df_test.info() to get the list of datatypes your data frame contains.If your data frame contains only numerical columns than df_test.describe() will work perfectly fine.As by default, it provides the summary of numerical values. If you want the summary of your Object(String) features you can use df_test.describe(include=['O']).

Or in short, you can just use df_test.describe(include='all') to get summary of all the feature columns when your data frame has columns of various data types.
