I’m using RMarkdown with the reticulate package and often have the requirement to print pandas DataFrame objects using R packages such as Kable. Unfortunately, the conversion appears to work intermittently when Knitting the document. Again, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.

Here's a reproducible example of RMarkdown:

output: html_document



```{r setup, include=FALSE}

knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)

```



```{python}

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({'a':4, 'b':5, 'c':9}, index=[0])

print(df)

```



```{r}

library(reticulate)

df2 <- reticulate::py$df

print(df2)

print(reticulate::py$df)

```

Actual Behavior:

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({'a':4, 'b':5, 'c':9}, index=[0])

print(df)

##    a  b  c

## 0  4  5  9

library(reticulate)

df2 <- reticulate::py$df

print(df2)

##                                   a                                 b

## 1 <environment: 0x000000001d8d9fa0> <environment: 0x000000001d9cd630>

##                                   c

## 1 <environment: 0x000000001dac0d30>

print(reticulate::py$df)

##                                   a                                 b

## 1 <environment: 0x000000001dde8a58> <environment: 0x000000001dedac08>

##                                   c

## 1 <environment: 0x000000001e0119e0>

Expected Behavior:
The Pandas DataFrame object should be converted to an R DataFrame object and printed as follows:

##    a  b  c

## 0  4  5  9

Would appreciate any guidance on this issue as the actual behavior I cited above doesn't occur all the time.
