I am trying to fill none values in a Pandas dataframe with 0's for only some subset of columns.
When I do:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(data={'a':[1,2,3,None],'b':[4,5,None,6],'c':[None,None,7,8]})
print df
df.fillna(value=0, inplace=True)
print df
The output:
a b c
0 1.0 4.0 NaN
1 2.0 5.0 NaN
2 3.0 NaN 7.0
3 NaN 6.0 8.0
a b c
0 1.0 4.0 0.0
1 2.0 5.0 0.0
2 3.0 0.0 7.0
3 0.0 6.0 8.0
It replaces every None with 0's. What I want to do is, only replace Nones in columns a and b, but not c.
What is the best way of doing this?
