Answer 1

if your dataframes are stored in two files I would read each line of each file in a loop and create a list with the differences:

old_file_path = 'INSERT_FILE_PATH_OF_FILE_A'
new_file_path = 'INSER_FILE_PATH_OF_FILE_B'

with open(old_file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as old ,open(new_file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as new:
    fileone = old.readlines()
    filetwo = new.readlines()

total_of_changes=[]
for line in filetwo:
    if line not in fileone:
        total_of_changes.append(line)
