python – How to get rid of decimal points in dataframe that is NOT numbers

  • 0

[ad_1]

I just want to get rid of characters (or whatever you want to call it)that has “.xxxxx”

Gene_ID
ENSG00000000003.14
ENSG00000000005.5
ERCC-00164
ENSG00000002586.18_PAR_Y
ENSG00000054803.3
ERCC-00012
ENSG00000284332.1

So this is how I want it to look like:

Gene_ID
ENSG00000000003
ENSG00000000005
ERCC-00164
ENSG00000002586
ENSG00000054803
ERCC-00012
ENSG00000284332

This is what I have tried:

df['Gene_ID'].str.replace('.',''))

but when I do that it only gets rid of the decimal not the characters that comes after the decimal point.

Note: the actual column is much longer than what I am showing on stack which has all that “.xxxx”
