0















enter image description hereI have created a following dataframe and would like to use the index stock code to call other data and add a new column and 'price'



        RSI
Stock
HOYA 61.940859
HKSE 61.657187
BABA 54.881989
HSI 53.664616
Galaxy 52.561760


and another dataframe that have the latest closing price of twenty stocks call 'Close'



How do I add a column to my first dataframe?
when my input



df['Stock'] 
#this return an error ??


And Also how do I add a new column to df with the latest closing price (ignoring the NaN)?? Please see the attached screen shot on my other dataframe.

As per your screenshot, the name of your first DataFrame is TOP so use TOP['Price'] to add a new column named 'Price'.



To have the latest closing price of HSI:
p_of_hsi = close.iloc[-2][1]



-2 for the second last row and 1 for first column



Now assign this value of HSI in TOP DataFrame
TOP['Price'][3] = p_of_hsi
