Answer 1

value_counts is a Series method rather than a DataFrame method (and you are trying to use it on a DataFrame, clean). You need to perform this on a specific column:

clean[column_name].value_counts()

It doesn't usually make sense to perform value_counts on a DataFrame, though I suppose you could apply it to every entry by flattening the underlying values array:

pd.value_counts(df.values.flatten())
