I have to merge two dataframes:

df1

company,standard tata,A1 cts,A2 dell,A3 

df2

company,return tata,71 dell,78 cts,27 hcl,23 

I have to unify both dataframes to one dataframe. I need output like:

company,standard,return tata,A1,71 cts,A2,27 dell,A3,78

Use merge:

print (pd.merge(df1, df2, on='company')) 

Sample:

print (df1) company standard 0 tata A1 1 cts A2 2 dell A3 print (df2) company return 0 tata 71 1 dell 78 2 cts 27 3 hcl 23 print (pd.merge(df1, df2, on='company')) company standard return 0 tata A1 71 1 cts A2 27 2 dell A3 78

I think we can also use

df1.merge(df2,on='Company') 

In order to successfully merge two data frames based on common column(s), the dtype for common column(s) in both data frames must be the same! dtype for a column can be changed by:

df['commonCol'] = df['commonCol'].astype(int)
