'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'dtype'

This error message occurs when you try to access the 'dtype' attribute of a DataFrame object, which is not a valid attribute for this type of data structure.

The 'dtype' attribute is used to describe the data type of a single column or variable, such as 'int', 'float', 'bool', or 'object'. However, a DataFrame contains multiple columns or variables, so calling 'dtype' on a DataFrame object doesn't make sense.

To access the data type of a specific column in a DataFrame, you can use the syntax:

df['column_name'].dtype

This will return the data type of the column as a string.
