I have a dataframe that looks like a bit like this example. For some reasons, the raw data has the value replicated across.
Node Node 1 Value Node 2 Value Node 3 Value
0 1 A B C
1 2 A B C
2 3 A B C
I want to transform it to look like this:
Node Value
0 1 A
1 2 B
2 3 C
This iterrows code works as intended but it is very slow for my data (48 nodes with ~20,000 values).
I feel like there must be a faster way, perhaps with apply
but I can't figure it out.
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"Node": ["1", "2", "3"],
"Node 1 Value": ["A","A","A"],
"Node 2 Value": ["B","B","B"],
"Node 3 Value": ["C","C","C"]})
print(df)
for index, row in df.iterrows():
df.loc[index, 'Value'] = row["Node {} Value".format(row['Node'])]
print(df[['Node','Value']])
Use DataFrame.lookup
and then DataFrame.assign
:
a = df.lookup(df.index, "Node " + df.Node.astype(str) + " Value")
df = df[['Node']].assign(Value = a)
print (df)
Node Value
0 1 A
1 2 B
2 3 C
EDIT: If some values missing you can extract this values by numpy.setdiff1d
for dictionary with default value, eg np.nan
and add to DataFrame before lookup
:
print (df)
Node Node 1 Value Node 2 Value Node 3 Value
0 1 A B C
1 2 A B C
3 5 A B C
s = "Node " + df.Node.astype(str) + " Value"
new = dict.fromkeys(np.setdiff1d(s, df.columns), np.nan)
print (new)
{'Node 5 Value': nan}
print (df.assign(**new))
Node Node 1 Value Node 2 Value Node 3 Value Node 5 Value
0 1 A B C NaN
1 2 A B C NaN
3 5 A B C NaN
a = df.assign(**new).lookup(df.index, s)
print (a)
['A' 'B' nan]
df = df[['Node']].assign(Value = a)
print (df)
Node Value
0 1 A
1 2 B
3 5 NaN
Another idea with definition of lookup :
def f(row, col):
try:
return df.at[row, col]
except:
return np.nan
s = "Node " + df.Node.astype(str) + " Value"
a = [f(row, col) for row, col in zip(df.index, s)]
df = df[['Node']].assign(Value = a)
print (df)
Node Value
0 1 A
1 2 B
3 5 NaN
And solution with DataFrame.melt
:
s = "Node " + df.Node.astype(str) + " Value"
b = (df.assign(Node = s)
.reset_index()
.melt(['index','Node'], value_name='Value')
.query('Node == variable').set_index('index')['Value'])
df = df[['Node']].join(b)
print (df)
Node Value
0 1 A
1 2 B
3 5 NaN
