要根据其他列的名称将现有列设置为右侧/左侧，请执行以下操作：

def df_move_column(df, col_to_move, col_left_of_destiny="", right_of_col_bool=True):
    cols = list(df.columns.values)
    index_max = len(cols) - 1

    if not right_of_col_bool:
        # set left of a column "c", is like putting right of column previous to "c"
        # ... except if left of 1st column, then recursive call to set rest right to it
        aux = cols.index(col_left_of_destiny)
        if not aux:
            for g in [x for x in cols[::-1] if x != col_to_move]:
                df = df_move_column(
                        df, 
                        col_to_move=g, 
                        col_left_of_destiny=col_to_move
                        )
            return df
        col_left_of_destiny = cols[aux - 1]

    index_old = cols.index(col_to_move)
    index_new = 0
    if len(col_left_of_destiny):
        index_new = cols.index(col_left_of_destiny) + 1

    if index_old == index_new:
        return df

    if index_new < index_old:
        index_new = np.min([index_new, index_max])
        cols = (
            cols[:index_new]
            + [cols[index_old]]
            + cols[index_new:index_old]
            + cols[index_old + 1 :]
        )
    else:
        cols = (
            cols[:index_old]
            + cols[index_old + 1 : index_new]
            + [cols[index_old]]
            + cols[index_new:]
        )

    df = df[cols]
    return df

E.g.

cols = list("ABCD")
df2 = pd.DataFrame(np.arange(4)[np.newaxis, :], columns=cols)
for k in cols:
    print(30 * "-")
    for g in [x for x in cols if x != k]:
        df_new = df_move_column(df2, k, g)
        print(f"{k} after {g}:  {df_new.columns.values}")
for k in cols:
    print(30 * "-")
    for g in [x for x in cols if x != k]:
        df_new = df_move_column(df2, k, g, right_of_col_bool=False)
        print(f"{k} before {g}:  {df_new.columns.values}")

输出：

对我来说，一个非常简单的解决方案是在df.columns上使用.rendex：

df = df[df.columns.reindex(['mean', 0, 1, 2, 3, 4])[0]]

您可以使用一个集合，它是唯一元素的无序集合，以保持“其他列的顺序不变”：

other_columns = list(set(df.columns).difference(["mean"])) #[0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

然后，可以通过以下方式使用lambda将特定列移动到前面：

In [3]: df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 5))                                                         

In [4]: df["mean"] = df.mean(1)

简单地说，

df = df[['mean'] + df.columns[:-1].tolist()]

这里有一个函数可以对任意数量的列执行此操作。

def mean_first(df):
    ncols = df.shape[1]        # Get the number of columns
    index = list(range(ncols)) # Create an index to reorder the columns
    index.insert(0,ncols)      # This puts the last column at the front
    return(df.assign(mean=df.mean(1)).iloc[:,index]) # new df with last column (mean) first

另一种选择是使用set_index（）方法，后跟reset_index（）。请注意，我们首先pop（）将要移动到数据帧前面的列，以便在重置索引时避免名称冲突：

df.set_index(df.pop('column_name'), inplace=True)
df.reset_index(inplace=True)
