Trying to delete rows above a specific datetime value
#20
This returns the drop function. It does nothing to modify df.
# DROP TEMP COLUMN BEFORE WRITING CSV
df['DT'].drop
To drop 'DT' from df you can do either of these:
df = df.drop('DT')
# or
df.drop('DT', inplace=True)
Try reading the documentation. I mean really reading until you understand what it says. For me that usually takes 4-5 times through the first time I try something new.
