Question

I have the following data

        timestamp        bucket forward
   0    02/01/2012 08:00    1   2309.6
1156    02/01/2012 08:00    2   2305.9
2320    02/01/2012 08:00    3   2306
3481    02/01/2012 08:00    4   2240.9
4643    02/01/2012 08:00    5   2235.3
5807    02/01/2012 08:00    6   2224.1
6969    02/01/2012 08:00    7   2167.1
   1    02/01/2012 09:00    1   2327.3
1157    02/01/2012 09:00    2   2323.4
2321    02/01/2012 09:00    3   2323.5
3482    02/01/2012 09:00    4   2258.4
4644    02/01/2012 09:00    5   2252.8
5808    02/01/2012 09:00    6   2241.4
6970    02/01/2012 09:00    7   2183.2
   2    02/01/2012 10:00    1   2342.3

If bucket > previou bucket, I need to find the corresponding forward with the same timestamp, ie:

        timestamp        bucket forward   result
   0    02/01/2012 08:00    1   2309.6    2309.6
1156    02/01/2012 08:00    2   2305.9    2309.6
2320    02/01/2012 08:00    3   2306      2309.6
3481    02/01/2012 08:00    4   2240.9    2309.6
4643    02/01/2012 08:00    5   2235.3    2309.6
5807    02/01/2012 08:00    6   2224.1    2309.6
6969    02/01/2012 08:00    7   2167.1    2309.6
   1    02/01/2012 09:00    1   2327.3    2327.3
1157    02/01/2012 09:00    2   2323.4    2327.3
2321    02/01/2012 09:00    3   2323.5    2327.3
3482    02/01/2012 09:00    4   2258.4    2327.3
4644    02/01/2012 09:00    5   2252.8    2327.3
5808    02/01/2012 09:00    6   2241.4    2327.3
6970    02/01/2012 09:00    7   2183.2    2327.3
   2    02/01/2012 10:00    1   2342.3    2342.3

so far I have:

df['result'] = np.where(df['bucket'].diff()>0, df['forward'].shift(1), df['forward']) 

not sure how to incorporate the first occurance in bucket part. any pointer would be appreciated

Answer 1

You can create a group variable from bucket column with diff and cumsum and then take the first forward value from each group with transform :

df['result'] = df.groupby(by = (df.bucket.diff() < 0).cumsum())['forward'].transform('first')
df

Answer 2

Here's one way.

Fill values by comparing with previous value, and then ffill the NaN values.

In [1024]: df['result'] = df.loc[~(df.bucket > df.bucket.shift(1)), 'forward']

In [1025]: df
Out[1025]:
                 timestamp  bucket  forward  result
0    '02/01/2012    08:00'       1   2309.6  2309.6
1156 '02/01/2012    08:00'       2   2305.9     NaN
2320 '02/01/2012    08:00'       3   2306.0     NaN
3481 '02/01/2012    08:00'       4   2240.9     NaN
4643 '02/01/2012    08:00'       5   2235.3     NaN
5807 '02/01/2012    08:00'       6   2224.1     NaN
6969 '02/01/2012    08:00'       7   2167.1     NaN
1    '02/01/2012    09:00'       1   2327.3  2327.3
1157 '02/01/2012    09:00'       2   2323.4     NaN
2321 '02/01/2012    09:00'       3   2323.5     NaN
3482 '02/01/2012    09:00'       4   2258.4     NaN
4644 '02/01/2012    09:00'       5   2252.8     NaN
5808 '02/01/2012    09:00'       6   2241.4     NaN
6970 '02/01/2012    09:00'       7   2183.2     NaN
2    '02/01/2012    10:00'       1   2342.3  2342.3

Forward-fill NaN s

In [1026]: df.result = df.result.ffill()

In [1027]: df
Out[1027]:
                 timestamp  bucket  forward  result
