![]() Let’s create a new DataFrame with two columns (the ‘Product’ and the ‘Price’ columns). Scenario 2: Numeric and non-numeric values You’ll now see that the ‘Price’ column has been converted into a float: Product Price And so, the full code to convert the values to floats would be: import pandas as pd In the context of our example, the ‘DataFrame Column’ is the ‘Price’ column. You can then use the astype(float) approach to perform the conversion into floats: df = df.astype(float) The goal is to convert the values under the ‘Price’ column into floats. Run the code in Python, and you’ll see that the data type for the ‘Price’ column is Object: Product Price ![]() Note that the same concepts would apply by using double quotes): import pandas as pd To keep things simple, let’s create a DataFrame with only two columns: Productīelow is the code to create the DataFrame in Python, where the values under the ‘Price’ column are stored as strings (by using single quotes around those values. Scenarios to Convert Strings to Floats in Pandas DataFrame Scenario 1: Numeric values stored as strings For a column that contains both numeric and non-numeric values. ![]()
