pandas.crosstab()

Compute a simple cross-tabulation of two (or more) factors. By default computes a frequency table of the factors unless an array of values and an aggregation function are passed

Notes

Any Series passed will have their name attributes used unless row or column names for the cross-tabulation are specified.

Any input passed containing Categorical data will have all of its categories included in the cross-tabulation, even if the actual data does not contain any instances of a particular category.

In the event that there aren?t overlapping indexes an empty DataFrame will be returned.

Examples

>>> a
array([foo, foo, foo, foo, bar, bar,
       bar, bar, foo, foo, foo], dtype=object)
>>> b
array([one, one, one, two, one, one,
       one, two, two, two, one], dtype=object)
>>> c
array([dull, dull, shiny, dull, dull, shiny,
       shiny, dull, shiny, shiny, shiny], dtype=object)

>>> crosstab(a, [b, c], rownames=['a'], colnames=['b', 'c'])
b    one          two
c    dull  shiny  dull  shiny
a
bar  1     2      1     0
foo  2     2      1     2

>>> foo = pd.Categorical(['a', 'b'], categories=['a', 'b', 'c'])
>>> bar = pd.Categorical(['d', 'e'], categories=['d', 'e', 'f'])
>>> crosstab(foo, bar)  # 'c' and 'f' are not represented in the data,
                        # but they still will be counted in the output
col_0  d  e  f

a      1  0  0

c      0  0  0
