filter col pandas code example

Example 1: pandas filter dataframe

In [96]: df
Out[96]:
   A  B  C  D
a  1  4  9  1
b  4  5  0  2
c  5  5  1  0
d  1  3  9  6

In [99]: df[(df.A == 1) & (df.D == 6)]
Out[99]:
   A  B  C  D
d  1  3  9  6

Example 2: pandas filter rows by value

# does year equals to 2002?
# is_2002 is a boolean variable with True or False in it
>is_2002 =  gapminder['year']==2002
>print(is_2002.head())
0    False
1    False
2    False
3    False
4    False
# filter rows for year 2002 using  the boolean variable
>gapminder_2002 = gapminder[is_2002]
>print(gapminder_2002.shape)
(142, 6)

Example 3: how to apply filters in pandas

# filter rows for year 2002 using  the boolean expression
>gapminder_2002 = gapminder[gapminder.year.eq(2002)]
>print(gapminder_2002.shape)
(142, 6)
