合并和替换值 dataframe pandas

Question

I have two dataframes with the same date and client id, but with a different amount.

I try to get another dataframe with dfA amount value and keep the another 0's on dfB when dfA does not exist

dfA:
    client_id  date         amount
0     1        2020-07-11    100
1     1        2020-07-10    90
2     1        2020-07-09    80
3     1        2020-07-12    70
3     1        2020-07-01    86

dfB:
    client_id  date         amount
0     1        2020-07-11    0
1     1        2020-07-10    0
2     1        2020-07-09    0
3     1        2020-07-07    0
4     1        2020-07-06    0
5     1        2020-07-05    0
5     1        2020-07-04    0
3     1        2020-07-03    0
4     1        2020-07-02    0
5     1        2020-07-01    0

I want to get:

dfResult:
    client_id  date         amount
0     1        2020-07-11    100
1     1        2020-07-10    90
2     1        2020-07-09    80
3     1        2020-07-07    70
4     1        2020-07-06    0
5     1        2020-07-05    0
5     1        2020-07-04    0
3     1        2020-07-03    0
4     1        2020-07-02    0
5     1        2020-07-01    86

Answer 1

You can concat the df's together, sort by amount and then drop duplicates.

dfResult = pd.concat([dfA,dfB]).sort_values(by='amout',ascending = False).drop_duplicates(subset=['client_id','date'],keep='first').reset_index().sort_values(by=['client id','date'],ascending = (True,False))

Answer 2

try this,

(
    dfB.date.map(
        dfA.set_index('date')['amount'].to_dict()
    ).fillna(0.0)
)

Or

(
    dfB.merge(
        dfA, on=['client_id', 'date'], suffixes=("_x", ""), how='left'
    ).fillna(0.0).drop(columns=["amount_x"])
)
