• 1 minPandas bring a lot to the table when you are dealing with mathematical operations.
Here is a simple example of how to compute the absolute value of a column.
# We import our pandas as library
import pandas as pd
# We create a sample dataframe
df = pd.DataFrame({"col1" : [-13, 21, -2, 10]})
# We compute the absolute value of a column
print(df["col1"].abs())
Here you are! You now know how to compute the absolute value with Pandas using Python.
