Drop Colum by index

[pjsgsy]

Cool library. I got stopped pretty quick though as I wanted to drop the last column of a df by index. It looks like Drop is column header string only?

Is there a hack for this, like Drop(df.getcolname(df.ColCount)) ? If not, it kind of looks easy enough to add in the source that I could add that function, however, then I end up with a custom version and I'd rather not. I don't see a way to get a column name. From describe maybe? I'm guessing I'm missing something simple! Thanks.

///

/// Removes specified columns from the data frame.
///

/// List of column names to be removed.
///
public DataFrame Drop(params string[] colName)
{
//
var cols = new List<(string oldName, string newName)>();
foreach (var c in this.Columns)
{
if (colName.Contains(c))
continue;
cols.Add((c, null));
}

        return Create(cols.ToArray());
    }

Hi pjsgsy,

unfortunately there is no such method.

Probably because original python pandas has no such method (I am not sure).

If you don't know already, there is a DevGuide that covers all functionalities in dataframe: https://github.com/bhrnjica/daany/blob/master/docs/DevGuide/developer_guide.md

Hope this help
