How to Convert Array to String in List in Pandas DataFrame

A list is a collection of items of any data type, including strings. A string is a sequence of characters that can be defined using single or double quotes. A string in a list refers to an element within a list that is of a data type string. Converting an array to a string in a list using pandas, you can use the “apply” method on the pandas DataFrame and pass in a lambda function that converts the array to a string using the “str” function. 

• apply: The apply method takes in a function as its argument and applies it to each element in the DataFrame or Series. The function can be a built-in Python function, a lambda function, or a user-defined function. 
• str: In Python, the str() function converts a value of any data type to a string. The str() function is a built-in Python function that can be used on any value, such as numbers, Booleans, lists, etc. 

For better knowledge of converting an array to a string in a list using Pandas, you may have a look at the code below.
