Pandas DataFrame.swapaxes(~) method swaps the rows and the columns of the DataFrame.
NOTE
Opt to use DataFrame.transpose(~) to flip the rows and columns.
Parameters
1. axis1 | int
Set either 0 or 1.
2. axis2 | int
Set 0 if axis1=1 and 1 if axis1=0.
3. copy | boolean | optional
Whether or not to create a new copy of the source DataFrame. Note that a copy represents a new DataFrame, that is, modifying the transpose would not mutate the original DataFrame and vice versa.
By default, copy=True.
Return value
A DataFrame with the rows and columns flipped.
Examples
Consider the following DataFrame:
df
A B0 3 51 4 6
To flip the rows and columns of df:
df.swapaxes(axis1=1, axis2=0)
0 1A 3 4B 5 6
