PART – B
SECTION – I
24 Write two points of difference between series data structure and 2
DataFrame data structure?
A series is a one-dimensional object that can hold homogeneous data of
any type such as integers, floats and strings.It has only one axis.
Data mutable but size immutable
A dataframe is a two-dimensional object that can hold hetrogeneous data
types. Individual columns of a dataframe can act as a separate series
object.. Data and size mutable
25 What is meant by data aggregation in Pandas? 2
Aggregation is the process of turning the values of a dataset (or a subset of
it) into one single value or, we can say, data aggregation is a multi-value
function which requires multiple values and returns a
single value as a result. There are a number of aggregations possible in
Pandas like count(), sum(), min(),max(), median(), quartile() etc.

26 Giving suitable example differentiate between reindex() and rename()? 2

reindex() to change sequence of index whereas; rename() to change
names/ labels of indexes in a series and dataframe.

df.reindex([2,1, 0,4,3])
df.reindex(columns=['name','runsscored','age'])

df1.rename(index={0:'zero',1:'one'})
df1.rename(columns={“Marks1”:'A',”Marks2”:'B'})

Delete. DML whereas; other belongs to DDL category.
36 Giving suitable example of each write the difference between Single-Row 2
Functions and Multiple-Row Functions in SQL.

Page 7 of 11
 Single row functions perform on individual rows or records and returns the
answer either as integer or string. For example, ucase(),mid(), length()
and trim() etc. On the other hand, multiple row functions perform on a
range of values and always return the result as a numeric value or
number. For example, Aggregate functions like sum(), count(), max(),
min() & avg() etc.
37 Compare Having clause and Order by clause? 1
Having clause is used with group by clause in MySQL. It is
used to provide condition based on grouped data. On the other hand, order
by clause is an independent clause used to arrange records of a table in
either ascending or descending order on the basis of one or more columns.

38 .What is difference between SYSDATE() and NOW() functions in MySQL. 1

SYSDATE() returns time of its own execution whereas; NOW() returns
constant time ie time of command’s execution.
