Deleting DataFrame row in Pandas based on column value

But for any future bypassers you could mention that df = df[df.line_race != 0] doesn't do anything when trying to filter for None/missing values.

Does work:

df = df[df.line_race != 0]

Doesn't do anything:

df = df[df.line_race != None]

Does work:

df = df[df.line_race.notnull()]

just to add another solution, particularly useful if you are using the new pandas assessors, other solutions will replace the original pandas and lose the assessors

df.drop(df.loc[df['line_race']==0].index, inplace=True)

If you want to delete rows based on multiple values of the column, you could use:

df[(df.line_race != 0) & (df.line_race != 10)]

To drop all rows with values 0 and 10 for line_race.


If I'm understanding correctly, it should be as simple as:

df = df[df.line_race != 0]
