Series.str.
translate
(table, deletechars=None)[source]¶ Map all characters in the string through the given mapping table. Equivalent to standard
str.translate()
. Note that the optional argument deletechars is only valid if you are using python 2. For python 3, character deletion should be specified via the table argument.Parameters: table : dict (python 3), str or None (python 2)
In python 3, table is a mapping of Unicode ordinals to Unicode ordinals, strings, or None. Unmapped characters are left untouched. Characters mapped to None are deleted.
str.maketrans()
is a helper function for making translation tables. In python 2, table is either a string of length 256 or None. If the table argument is None, no translation is applied and the operation simply removes the characters in deletechars.string.maketrans()
is a helper function for making translation tables.deletechars : str, optional (python 2)
A string of characters to delete. This argument is only valid in python 2.
Returns: - translated : Series/Index of objects
