I'd like to take 2 separate dataframes, each comprised of a bunch of dictionaries, and combine them to yield the following:
df1 = pd.DataFrame([[{'a':1}, {'a':2}]])
df2 = pd.DataFrame([[{'b':1}, {'b':2}]])
df3 = pd.some_function(df1, df2)
where pd.some_function
takes the two dfs and performs a cell-wise merge of the dictionaries:
0 1
0 {u'a': 1, u'b': 1} {u'a': 2, u'b': 2}
I know I can do this with a for loop, but is there a pandas function that can do this more succinctly? Simply adding the dfs does not work. I'm familiar with df.applymap
, but my understanding is that will apply a function to each cell of a single df.
By using concat
+ ChainMap
from collections import ChainMap
df=pd.concat([df1,df2])
df.groupby(df.index)[0,1].agg(lambda x :dict(ChainMap(*x.values.tolist())))
Out[94]:
0 1
0 {'b': 1, 'a': 1} {'b': 2, 'a': 2}
