How should I write a regex that would indicate that important is in the string:
df_loc = pd.DataFrame({'cond':['important', 'blabl unimportant', 'blabl important']})
blabla important blabl and important blabl
so, that something like
blabla unimportant blabl and unimportant blabl
would not match.
For important blabl, it would be something like
df_loc['cond'].str.contains(r'^important')
but I am not catching 'blabl important'

Read about word boundaries, which are supported by Python. Essentially you want the regexr'bimportantb', so you don't matchunimportantorimportantly.
