Get statistics for each group such as count mean etc using pandas GroupBy

Question

I have a data frame df and I use several columns from it to groupby   df  col1   col2   col3   col4   groupby   col1   col2    mean     In the above way I almost get the table  data frame  that I need  What is missing is an additional column that contains number of rows in each group  In other words  I have mean but I also would like to know how many number were used to get these means  For example in the first group there are 8 values and in the second one 10 and so on   In short  How do I get group-wise statistics for a dataframe

Create a group object and call methods like below example    grp   df groupby   col1     col2     col3      grp max    grp mean    grp describe

Please try this code  new column df   col1    col2    col3    col4    groupby   col1    col2    count   df  count it   new column df   I think that code will add a column called  count it  which count of each group

To get multiple stats  collapse the index  and retain column names   df   df groupby   col1   col2    agg   mean    count    df columns         join str i  for i in col  for col in df columns  df reset index inplace True  df   Produces

On groupby object  the agg function can take a list to apply several aggregation methods at once  This should give you the result you need   df   col1    col2    col3    col4    groupby   col1    col2    agg   mean    count

We can easily do it by using groupby and count  But  we should remember to use reset index     df   col1   col2   col3   col4    groupby   col1   col2    count     reset index

Quick Answer   The simplest way to get row counts per group is by calling  size    which returns a Series   df groupby   col1   col2    size       Usually you want this result as a DataFrame  instead of a Series  so you can do   df groupby   col1    col2    size   reset index name  counts       If you want to find out how to calculate the row counts and other statistics for each group continue reading below      Detailed example   Consider the following example dataframe   In  2   df Out 2      col1 col2  col3  col4  col5  col6 0    A    B  0 20 -0 61 -0 49  1 49 1    A    B -1 53 -1 01 -0 39  1 82 2    A    B -0 44  0 27  0 72  0 11 3    A    B  0 28 -1 32  0 38  0 18 4    C    D  0 12  0 59  0 81  0 66 5    C    D -0 13 -1 65 -1 64  0 50 6    C    D -1 42 -0 11 -0 18 -0 44 7    E    F -0 00  1 42 -0 26  1 17 8    E    F  0 91 -0 47  1 35 -0 34 9    G    H  1 48 -0 63 -1 14  0 17   First let s use  size   to get the row counts   In  3   df groupby   col1    col2    size   Out 3    col1  col2 A     B       4 C     D       3 E     F       2 G     H       1 dtype  int64   Then let s use  size   reset index name  counts   to get the row counts   In  4   df groupby   col1    col2    size   reset index name  counts   Out 4      col1 col2  counts 0    A    B       4 1    C    D       3 2    E    F       2 3    G    H       1     Including results for more statistics  When you want to calculate statistics on grouped data  it usually looks like this   In  5    df          groupby   col1    col2             agg                col3     mean    count                  col4     median    min    count               Out 5                col4                  col3                 median   min count      mean count col1 col2                                    A    B    -0 810 -1 32     4 -0 372500     4 C    D    -0 110 -1 65     3 -0 476667     3 E    F     0 475 -0 47     2  0 455000     2 G    H    -0 630 -0 63     1  1 480000     1   The result above is a little annoying to deal with because of the nested column labels  and also because row counts are on a per column basis    To gain more control over the output I usually split the statistics into individual aggregations that I then combine using join   It looks like this   In  6   gb   df groupby   col1    col2            counts   gb size   to frame name  counts            counts           join gb agg   col3    mean    rename columns   col3    col3 mean               join gb agg   col4    median    rename columns   col4    col4 median               join gb agg   col4    min    rename columns   col4    col4 min               reset index                      Out 6      col1 col2  counts  col3 mean  col4 median  col4 min 0    A    B       4  -0 372500       -0 810     -1 32 1    C    D       3  -0 476667       -0 110     -1 65 2    E    F       2   0 455000        0 475     -0 47 3    G    H       1   1 480000       -0 630     -0 63       Footnotes  The code used to generate the test data is shown below   In  1   import numpy as np         import pandas as pd                   keys   np array                     A    B                      A    B                      A    B                      A    B                      C    D                      C    D                      C    D                      E    F                      E    F                      G    H                                        df   pd DataFrame              np hstack  keys np random randn 10 4  round 2                  columns     col1    col2    col3    col4    col5    col6                              df   col3    col4    col5    col6                    df   col3    col4    col5    col6    astype float              Disclaimer   If some of the columns that you are aggregating have null values  then you really want to be looking at the group row counts as an independent aggregation for each column  Otherwise you may be misled as to how many records are actually being used to calculate things like the mean because pandas will drop NaN entries in the mean calculation without telling you about it
