Problem

DataFrame weather +————-+——–+ | Column Name | Type | +————-+——–+ | city | object | | month | object | | temperature | int | +————-+——–+

Write a solution to pivot the data so that each row represents temperatures for a specific month, and each city is a separate column.

The result format is in the following example.

Explanation: The table is pivoted, each column represents a city, and each row represents a specific month.

## Solution

### Method 1 - Pandas Pivot

#### Intuition
We want to pivot the DataFrame so that each city becomes a column and each month is a row, with temperature as the value.

#### Approach
Use pandas `pivot` to reshape the DataFrame, then reset the index and sort by month for a clean output.

#### Code

def pivot_weather(weather: pd.DataFrame) -> pd.DataFrame:
    result = weather.pivot(index='month', columns='city', values='temperature').reset_index()
    # Optional: sort by month for consistent output
    result = result.sort_values('month').reset_index(drop=True)
    return result





        

        
        
         
        
        
    





#### Complexity

* ⏰ Time complexity: `O(n)` — where n is the number of rows in the DataFrame.
* 🧺 Space complexity: `O(n)` — for the output DataFrame.
