Change index of a pandas data frame

I have the following DF

a b
Test1 2 1
Test2 3 2

What I currently do is the following :

DF.reset_index().set_index('b')

which give the following output :

b a index
1 2 Test1
2 3 Test2

But what if I don't want the column to be named as "index" ?

For example I wish to have the following output : (Replace "index" by "TestName")

b a TestName
1 2 Test1
2 3 Test2

CodePudding user response:

you can just set the columns manually

DF.columns = ['b', 'a', 'TestName']

CodePudding user response:

use index.rename

DF.set_index('b', inplace=True)
DF.index.rename('TestName', inplace=True)
DF
