I am trying to convert my output into a pandas data frame and I am struggling. I have this list

my_list = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

I want to create a pandas data frame that would have 3 columns and three rows. I try using

df = pd.DataFrame(my_list, columns = list("abc"))

but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Any help would be appreciated.

You need convert list to numpy array and then reshape:

df = pd.DataFrame(np.array(my_list).reshape(3,3), columns = list("abc"))
print (df)
   a  b  c
0  1  2  3
1  4  5  6
2  7  8  9
