# Drop Columns (DP\_6)

With this, you can easily drop one or multiple columns that are not relevant or redundant to your analysis. The process of removing columns is straightforward and user-friendly, simply select the columns you want to drop and the tool will do the rest. 

The remaining columns will be updated in real-time to reflect the changes made, and the modified dataset can be saved for future use.

## Sample Request
