Pokemon

Introduction:

This time you will create the data.

Step 1. Import the necessary libraries

import pandas as pd

Step 2. Create a data dictionary

raw_data = {"name": ['Bulbasaur', 'Charmander','Squirtle','Caterpie'],
            "evolution": ['Ivysaur','Charmeleon','Wartortle','Metapod'],
            "type": ['grass', 'fire', 'water', 'bug'],
            "hp": [45, 39, 44, 45],
            "pokedex": ['yes', 'no','yes','no']                        
            }

Step 3. Assign it to a variable called pokemon

pokemon = pd.DataFrame(raw_data)
pokemon.head()

Step 4. Ops...it seems the DataFrame columns are in alphabetical order. Place the order of the columns as name, type, hp, evolution, pokedex

pokemon = pokemon[['name', 'type', 'hp', 'evolution','pokedex']]
pokemon

Step 5. Add another column called place, and insert what you have in mind.

pokemon['place'] = ['park','street','lake','forest']
pokemon

Step 6. Present the type of each column

pokemon.dtypes

name         object
type         object
hp            int64
evolution    object
pokedex      object
dtype: object
