I want to drop all rows that do not contain "PD-19-05-16" or "PD-19-06-01" in column "Document No." but after I ran the code it doesn't appear to make any changes.
Any advice on how to properly do this or correct the code would be greatly appreciated.
I tried using df.drop but have been running into lots of problems.
df = df.drop(['Document No.'] != ['PD-19-05-16','PD-19-06-01'])
I expected this to work but got ValueError: Arrays were different lengths: 4533 vs 2
try:
rows_to_keep = ["PD-19-05-16","PD-19-06-01"]
df.loc[df['Document No.'].isin(rows_to_keep)]
#or if you need the inverse
df.loc[~df['Document No.'].isin(rows_to_keep)]
I don't think that's the correct use of drop tbf. I always find it easier to use isin
to filter on a single column.
the ~
acts as negatory operator
