Chris, I admit I must have missed that. I was trying to understand the overall request. I do most of my data.frame work in another language 😉
I will say that there are many problems that live at various levels. The original request could have been about how o covert a 1-digit integer which would have been simple enough. Instead it asked for any integer to be viewed in some way as a collection of single digits and manipulated individually. What we have now in effect with a column of a data.frame is a collection of those collections. If next he askes to convert all columns of the data.frame, we get to a collection of collections of collections 😉 But realistically, some of those collections already have methods in place so no need for something like writing code nesting loops within loops within loops. I deleted all the messages and I am asking myself if anyone else provided advice or actual code that zoomed in one how to do it to a series. You clearly saw it. -----Original Message----- From: Python-list <python-list-bounces+avigross=verizon....@python.org> On Behalf Of Chris Angelico Sent: Sunday, February 21, 2021 9:41 AM Cc: Python <python-list@python.org> Subject: Re: Is there a way to subtract 3 from every digit of a number?

Given that the original post mentioned a pd.Series, I don't know how far the goalposts actually moved :) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
