Is there any way to merge two data frames while one of them has duplicated indices such as following:
dataframe A:
value
key
a 1
b 2
b 3
b 4
c 5
a 6
dataframe B:
number
key
a I
b X
c V
after merging, I want to have a data frame like the following:
value number
key
a 1 I
b 2 X
b 3 X
b 4 X
c 5 V
a 6 I
Or maybe there are better ways to do it using groupby?
Use join :
>>> a = pd.DataFrame(range(1,7), index=list('abbbca'), columns=['value'])
>>> b = pd.DataFrame(['I', 'X', 'V'], index=list('abc'), columns=['number'])
>>> a.join(b)
value number
a 1 I
a 6 I
b 2 X
b 3 X
b 4 X
c 5 V
>>> a.join(b).sort('value')
value number
key
a 1 I
b 2 X
b 3 X
b 4 X
c 5 V
a 6 I
