I am trying to get a list of the column headers from a pandas DataFrame. The DataFrame will come from user input so I won't know how many columns there will be or what they will be called.
For example, if I'm given a DataFrame like this:
>>> my_dataframe
y gdp cap
0 1 2 5
1 2 3 9
2 8 7 2
3 3 4 7
4 6 7 7
5 4 8 3
6 8 2 8
7 9 9 10
8 6 6 4
9 10 10 7
I would get a list like this:
>>> header_list
['y', 'gdp', 'cap']
