I faced the same problem, in my case it was because I had duplicate column names after the join.

I see you have report_date and marketplaceid in both dataframes. For each duplicated pair, you need to either drop one or both, or rename one of them.

combine_first: 'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'dtype' with duplicate columns · Issue #29135 · pandas-dev/pandas
October 21, 2019 - The above call results in AttributeError: 'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'dtype' which is difficult to interpret. Under the hood the set logic tries to maintain dtype but the duplicate column label results in finding a DataFrame instead of a Series.

"sklearn.datasets" is a scikit package, where it contains a method load_iris().

load_iris(), by default return an object which holds data, target and other members in it. In order to get actual values you have to read the data and target content itself.

Whereas 'iris.csv', holds feature and target together.

FYI: If you set return_X_y as True in load_iris(), then you will directly get features and target.

from sklearn import datasets
data,target = datasets.load_iris(return_X_y=True)

The Iris Dataset from Sklearn is in Sklearn's Bunch format:

print(type(iris))
print(iris.keys())

output:

<class 'sklearn.utils.Bunch'>
dict_keys(['data', 'target', 'target_names', 'DESCR', 'feature_names', 'filename'])

So, that's why you can access it as:

x=iris.data
y=iris.target

But when you read the CSV file as DataFrame as mentioned by you:

iris = pd.read_csv('iris.csv',header=None).iloc[:,2:4]
iris.head()

output is:

    2   3
0   petal_length    petal_width
1   1.4 0.2
2   1.4 0.2
3   1.3 0.2
4   1.5 0.2

Here the column names are '1' and '2'.

First of all you should read the CSV file as:

df = pd.read_csv('iris.csv')

you should not include header=None as your csv file includes the column names i.e. the headers.

So, now what you can do is something like this:

X = df.iloc[:, [2, 3]] # Will give you columns 2 and 3 i.e 'petal_length' and 'petal_width'
y = df.iloc[:, 4] # Label column i.e 'species'

or if you want to use the column names then:

X = df[['petal_length', 'petal_width']]
y = df.iloc['species']

Also, if you want to convert labels from string to numerical format use sklearn LabelEncoder

from sklearn import preprocessing
le = preprocessing.LabelEncoder()
y = le.fit_transform(y)

r/learnpython on Reddit: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'dtype'
May 13, 2022 -

why is this code throwing this error:

'tuple' object has no attribute 'dtype'

Code:

hsv_img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2HSV)

h, s, v = cv2.split(hsv_img)

clahe = cv2.createCLAHE(clipLimit=2.6, tileGridSize=(3,3))

clahe_v = clahe.apply(v)

dwts = pywt.dwt(s, 'bior1.3')

smin = np.amin(dwts)

smax = np.amax(dwts)

print("smin:", smin, "smax:", smax)

sleep(2)

smin_new = 2.589 * smin

smax_new = 0.9 * smax

print("smin_new:", smin_new, "smax_new:", smax_new)

sleep(2)

magic_s = skimage.exposure.rescale_intensity(dwts, in_range=(smin,smax), out_range=(smin_new,smax_new)).astype(np.uint8) # this is the part throwing the error
