How to stack two series vertically and horizontally in pandas

pandas’s library allows two series to be stacked as vertical and horizontal using a built-in command called concat(). This action is usually performed to create a dataframe from two series.

Syntax

Parameters

1. objs: This is the mapping of Dataframe or Series objects. If we pass the mapping, their keys will be sorted and used in argument keys. If keys are already passed as an argument, then those passed values will be used. Any Null objects will be dropped.

2. axis: This is the axis along which we want to stack our series. The default is 0.

   0 represents Horizontal.

   1 represents Vertical.

3. join: This parameter tells us how to handle indexes on other axes. It has two types: inner and outer, and the default is outer.

4. ignore_index (bool): This tells whether or not to ignore index values. The default is False.

5. keys(sequence): This tells us the sequence of the identifier in resultant indices. The default is None.

6. levels (list of sequences): This tells us the levels for constructing Multi-index. The default is None.

7. names (list): This tells us the names of levels in resultant index. The default is None.

8. verify_integrity (bool): This checks duplicates in the resultant axis. The default is False.

9. sort (bool): This sorts non-concatenation axis. It only works with outer join, and the default is False.

10. copy (bool): This tells whether or not to stop copying unnecessary data. The default is True.

Return values

• Series: If objs contains all series.

• Dataframe: If objs contains at least one Dataframe.
