Example: Filtering with axis set to 'columns' or 1
When axis is 'columns' or 1, then the like substring pattern is applied to the column names of the DataFrame.
The substring pattern is case sensitive.
>>> df.filter(like = 'st', axis = 'columns') masters stats 0 yes Advanced 1 yes Novice 2 yes Novice 3 no Advanced 4 no Advanced 5 yes Advanced 6 yes Advanced 7 no Novice 8 yes Advanced 9 yes Novice
Example: Filtering with axis set to 'rows' or 0
When axis is 'rows' or 0, then the like substring pattern is applied to the values of the columns specified in the index_label of the DataFrame.
The index columns will be cast into VARCHAR columns in order to perform the match.
