There are several possible causes for a SyntaxError while attempting to choose particular row elements from a dataframe, including:
1) Incorrect syntax: The syntax used to select the row elements may be incorrect or invalid.
2) Typo or misspelling: There could be a typo or misspelling in the name of the column or row that is being selected.
3) Missing parentheses: Sometimes missing parentheses can cause a SyntaxError, especially if you are trying to chain multiple functions together.
4) Mismatched brackets: Mismatched brackets or parentheses can also cause a SyntaxError – for example, if there are too many or too few brackets, or if they are not closed properly.
5) Incorrect data type: It is also possible that the data type of the element being selected is not compatible with the syntax being used to select it.
6) Deprecated syntax: Sometimes older versions of pandas had deprecated syntax. If a user is using this code on an older version of pandas, syntax errors might result.
