SQL Server Machine Learning Services – Part 2: Python Data Frames - Simple Talk

If you've spent any time with the R language in SQL Server R Services or Machine Learning Services (MLS), you're no doubt aware of the important role that data frames can play in your scripts, whether working with data that comes from a SQL Server database or from another source. The same is true for Python. You use data frames when passing data sets into and out of a script as well as when manipulating and analyzing data within that script. This article focuses on using data frames in Python. It is the second article in a series about MLS and Python. The first article introduced you briefly to data frames. This article continues that discussion, describing how to work with data frame objects and the data within those objects.
