  4. DataFrame Merge Key Mismatches
  5.  
  6. Mismatched keys when merging data frames is one of the most frequent errors you’ll run into.
  7. In this example, we try to merge two dataframes where the customer ID columns had different names ("customer_id" vs "CustomerID"). If you try to merge, you’ll run into a KeyError exception:
  8. # Create sample dataframes
  9. sales_df = pd.DataFrame({
  10. 'customer_id': [101, 102, 103, 104],
  11. 'sale_amount': [1500, 2300, 1800, 3200]
  12. })
  13.  
  14. customer_df = pd.DataFrame({
  15. 'CustomerID': [101, 102, 103, 105], # Note the different column name and slightly different data
  16. 'customer_name': ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie', 'Eve']
  17. })
  18.  
  19. try:
  20. # This will raise an error
  21. merged_df = sales_df.merge(customer_df, left_on='customer_id', right_on='customer_id')
  22. except KeyError as e:
  23. print("KeyError:", e)
