i have a series (column) from a DataFrame that contains empty strings, ''. i want to delete each element that is empty so this should only contain values with 'Sea' . The data is actually a panda column series but i output it as a List to see the values.
Before: ['Sea', 'Sea', '', '', '', 'Sea', 'Sea', '', '']
Whats the best way to remove these element from the series. I can use this with a list but would rather keep as series.
y = df['ColumnA'].str.strip().tolist()
y = List(filter(None, y) ) After: ['Sea', 'Sea', 'Sea', 'Sea']
how do i do the same from panda series?
i think i figured it out
df[Column 1'].replace('', np.nan).dropna()
is there a better way?
