python Dataframe difference giving wrong values












1















I have two dataframes, prices and pricesOld. Having columns OPEN,HIGH,LOW,CLOSE.
When I subtract two columns,why does it gives wrong values?



prices["diff"]=pricesOld["CLOSE"]-prices['CLOSE']



prices OPEN,HIGH,LOW,CLOSE respectively//:23.80 22.00 23.15 22.75



pricesOld OPEN,HIGH,LOW,CLOSE respectively://23.0 23.0 22.55 22.7 22.6



but the resulting diff gives value:65761.70

  • There seems to be an extra column in your PricesOld. Is that an index or a typo? Additionally, when I run the script, it outputs the -0.15, as I expect. Are you sure there's not some indexing problem?
