That's not the output of to_string. to_string is a method, not an attribute which is apparent by the > <bound method DataFrame.to_string <repr> comment in your output. You need to call it with parenthesis like `dframe.to_string()` > Can I evaluate this string to obtain a new dataframe like the one that > generated it? As for re-importing, serialize the frame to something sensible first. There are several options available, csv, json, html... Take your pick. You can find all those in the dframe.to_$something namespace (again, those are methods, make sure to call them). Import it again with pandas.read_$something, choosing the same serialization format you picked for the output in the first place. Does this help?
