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：

将任意列移动到任意位置：

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1,2,3], 
                   "B": [2,4,8], 
                   "C": [5,5,5]})

cols = df.columns.tolist()
column_to_move = "C"
new_position = 1

cols.insert(new_position, cols.pop(cols.index(column_to_move)))
df = df[cols]

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

这个问题以前已经回答过，但reindex_axis现在已被弃用，因此我建议使用：

df = df.reindex(sorted(df.columns), axis=1)

对于那些想要指定他们想要的顺序而不是仅仅对它们进行排序的人来说，下面列出了解决方案：

df = df.reindex(['the','order','you','want'], axis=1)

现在，如何对列名列表排序真的不是熊猫问题，而是Python列表操作问题。有很多方法可以做到这一点，我认为这个答案有一个非常简洁的方法。

您可以使用可用于两个轴的重新索引：

df

df.reindex(['mean', *range(5)], axis=1)

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 [1]: import numpy as np
