Include missing data count in pd.Dataframe.describe method #21689
Description
Code Sample
d = {'col1': [1, np.nan], 'col2': [3, 4]} df = pd.DataFrame(data=d) df.describe()Problem description
- Output
The describe method generally only include 9 summary statistics(count, mean, std, min, 25%, 50%, 75%, max, missing) but no missing count which is very import in realworld data analysis.
To include missing count I have to use the following code,
d = {'col1': [1, np.nan], 'col2': [3, 4]} df = pd.DataFrame(data=d) des1 = df.describe() des2 = df.isnull().sum().to_frame(name = 'missing').T pd.concat([des1, des2])And the output
Expected Output
Expect include missing count in describe method.
Output of pd.show_versions()
