Retrieve name of column from its Index in Pandas


I think you need index columns names by position (python counts from 0, so for fourth column need 3):

colname = df.columns[pos]

Sample:

df = pd.DataFrame({'A':[1,2,3],                   'B':[4,5,6],                   'C':[7,8,9],                   'D':[1,3,5],                   'E':[5,3,6],                   'F':[7,4,3]})print (df)   A  B  C  D  E  F0  1  4  7  1  5  71  2  5  8  3  3  42  3  6  9  5  6  3pos = 3colname = df.columns[pos]print (colname)D

pos = [3,5]colname = df.columns[pos]print (colname)Index(['D', 'F'], dtype='object')
