如何从python中的对象中删除特定字符串?

标签: python pandas dataframe

我正在尝试从熊猫数据框的以下“引擎”列中删除CC,并将此引擎转换为浮点型值。

Engine column in this Dataframe

我已经尝试了很多可以在互联网上找到的东西,但对我没有任何帮助。stackoverflow here上也存在类似的问题,但这给了我以下错误:

Error

dtype中的car_data['Engine']被显示为对象。我非常需要。在这种情况下请有人帮助我。

ValueError: could not convert string to float: 'null'

我将Power属性转换为float时,也遇到了以上错误。请帮忙。

答案 0 :(得分:1)

为什么不先执行以下代码:

car_data["Engine"] = car_data["Engine"].str.strip(" CC").astype(float)

或者:

car_data["Engine"] = car_data["Engine"].str[:-3].astype(float)
