Pandas DataFrame.values property returns the values of the DataFrame as a 2D NumPy array. Note that modifying DataFrame.values would also modify the original DataFrame, and vice versa.

NOTE

The to_numpy(~) method also returns the value of the DataFrame as a 2D NumPy array, but it allows for a bit more flexibility such as being able to specify the return type.

Return Value

A NumPy array holding all the values of the source DataFrame.

Examples

Basic usage

Consider the following DataFrame:

df = pd.DataFrame({"A":[1,2], "B":[3,4]})
df
   A  B
0  1  3
1  2  4

Its values property is as follows:

df.values
array([[1, 3],
       [2, 4]])

The return value is a NumPy array holding all the values of the source DataFrame.

Mutations

Suppose we modify the values property:

df.values[0,0] = 5
df
   A  B
0  5  3
1  2  4

Notice how the original DataFrame df reflected the modification.
