Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

can you show the full example?

hollow garnet
#

meaning the dataframe?

slender flame
#

and the output

#

It's erroring because you put subset=["Name"] but there is no column named "Name", only one name "name" (lowercase)

#

oh i see now thx

#

i haven't save the rename

slender flame
#

df.rename doesn't work in place, it returns a new renamed df

#

You either have to assign it again or use inplace=True

#

ok thx

#
