X = np.array(df.drop(['label'], 1))I understand this code is to convert a Pandas's dataframe into a numpy array without a column labelled as "label".
But what is 1 doing here?
Accoding to numpy array's definition:numpy.array(object, dtype=None, copy=True, order='K', subok=False, ndmin=0)
it seems is about datatype? I have tried to delete 1, this will produce errors. So 1 is essential here.
On the other hand, if I convert one dataframe's column to a numpy array, it works without a second argument:
y = np.array(df['label'])Thanks,
