pandas: Unable to write values to single row dataframe
I have a single row dataframe(df) on which I want to insert value for every column using only the index numbers.
The dataframe df is in following form.
a b c
1 0 0 0
2 0 0 0
3 0 0 0
df.iloc[[0],[1]] = predictions[:1]
This gives me the following warning and does not write anything to the row:
SettingWithCopyWarning:
A value is trying to be set on a copy of a slice from a DataFrame.
Try using .loc[row_indexer,col_indexer] = value instead
However when I try using
pred_row.iloc[0,1] = predictions[:1]
It gives me error
ValueError: Incompatible indexer with Series
Is there a way to write value to single row dataframe.
Predictions is any random value that I am trying to set in a particular cell of df

What ispredictions? Can you add some sample?

@jezrael prediction is any random value that I am predicting and adding it to a column in df

so what isprint (type(predictions[:1]))?

Can you add yout complete code, what do you try? Because is not possible set one element of DataFrame by Series - array. Maybe needdf.iloc[0, :] = predictions[:1].valuesif want set first row of df bypredictions[:1]
