Return value

Examples
Basic usage
To check the list of supported attributes and methods for a string object:
s = "SkyTowner"dir(s)
['__add__', '__class__', '__contains__', '__delattr__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__',... 'title', 'translate', 'upper', 'zfill']
We have truncated the output for readability, but you can clearly see the list of attributes and methods supported for the string object "SkyTowner".

import pandas as pd
dir(pd)
['BooleanDtype', 'Categorical', 'CategoricalDtype', 'CategoricalIndex',... 'tseries', 'unique', 'util', 'value_counts', 'wide_to_long']
