To get columns by data type in Pandas, use the DataFrame's select_dtypes(~).

As an example, consider the following DataFrame:

df = pd.DataFrame({"A":[3,4],"B":["a","b"],"C":[5.0,6.7]})
df
A B C
0 3 a 5.0
1 4 b 6.7

Including columns

To get all columns of type int:

df.select_dtypes(include=[int])
A
0 3
1 4

Excluding columns

To exclude all columns of type float:

df.select_dtypes(exclude=["float"])
A B
0 3 a
1 4 b
