将 for 循环的输出写入 Pandas 数据帧

Question

How can I write an output of a for loop to pandas data-frame?

Input data is a list of data-frames (df_elements).

[                          seq  score    status

I am trying to write the output of the below for loop to a data-frame. I tried by creating an empty list (data) and append row-wise output using data.append. I am getting an error like cannot concatenate object of type "";

The code is given below which print the output in the console:

cut_off = [0,1,2]

for co in cut_off:
    for df in df_elements:
        print co, "\t", str((df['score'] > co).sum())

The code should compare the cut_off value to the column score and print the total for each data-frame element, where the score is > than cut_off.

The output should look like this:

cutoff number
0   5  #for first dataframe element
0   5  #for second dataframe element

Answer 1

# create empty lists for cutoff and number
cutoff_list = []
number_list = []

# loop through cutoff values and dataframes, to populate your lists
for co in cut_off:
    for df in df_elements:
        cutoff_list.append(co)
        number_list.append((df['score'] > co).sum())

# create dataframe from your lists
df = pd.DataFrame(list(zip(cutoff_list , number_list)), 
           columns =['cutoff', 'number']) 

# get your desired output
print(df)
