dataframe to list

df.values.tolist()

# import pandas as pd 

import pandas as pd 
# list of strings 
lst = ['fav', 'tutor', 'coding', 'skills']
# Calling DataFrame constructor on list 
df = pd.DataFrame(lst) 
print(df) 

L = ['Thanks You', 'Its fine no problem', 'Are you sure']

#create new df 
df = pd.DataFrame({'col':L})
print (df)

                   col
0           Thanks You
1  Its fine no problem
2         Are you sure

import pandas as pd
df = pd.concat(list_of_dataframes)
# easy way

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[1,2,3],[3,4,5]])
>>> lol = df.values.tolist()
>>> lol
[[1L, 2L, 3L], [3L, 4L, 5L]]
