slice columns pandas with code example

Example 1: dataframe slice by list of values

In [1]: df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [5,6,3,4], 'B': [1,2,3,5]})

In [2]: df
Out[2]:
   A  B
0  5  1
1  6  2
2  3  3
3  4  5

In [3]: df[df['A'].isin([3, 6])]
Out[3]:
   A  B
1  6  2
2  3  3

Example 2: pandas slice based on column value

df.loc[df['column_name'] == some_value]

Example 3: dataframe slice by list of values

In [4]: df[~df['A'].isin([3, 6])]
Out[4]:
   A  B
0  5  1
