Python-Replace rows in a column using condition in other column using dictionary












2















A    B
abc AN
abd BN
a01 CN
abc BN
a02 CN


I have a dataframe similar to above. For every B=CN,I want to replace corresponding row in A i.e a01,a02 with value from dictionary.
The dictionary is as follow:



d={'a01':'ana','a02':'aza'}


Whenever I'm trying to replace the values, it's giving incorrect result either the values are misplaced. I tried where clause as well but still missing something.

    Can you rephrase the question, specifically can you give more details about the "dataframe": is it a text file, array or some sort of data-structure? Maybe provide some existing code, MWE.

  • X=pd.read_csv('somefile.csv). A and B are columns in X.I've to replace few rows in A which have values a01 and a02 but only if the values in column B is BN.I've created a dictionary d whose value are to be used for replacing rows in A.For example: a01 should be replaced by ana only if rows in B have value equal to CN .Is it clear now?

In a single line in would look like this:



df.loc[df['B'].eq('CN'), 'A'] = df['A'].map(d)
df
A B
0 abc AN
1 abd BN
2 ana CN
3 abc BN
4 aza CN


Also you can use np.where:



df['A'] = np.where(df['B'].eq('CN'), df['A'].map(d), df['A'])


Here is the whole code with np.where:



import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

df = pd.DataFrame({'A': ['abc', 'abd', 'a01', 'abc', 'a02'],
'B': ['AN', 'BN', 'CN', 'BN', 'CN']})

d = {'a01': 'ana', 'a02': 'aza'}

df['A'] = np.where(df['B'].eq('CN'), df['A'].map(d), df['A'])

df

A B
0 abc AN
1 abd BN
2 ana CN
3 abc BN
4 aza CN
