I'm trying to compare two dataframes in pandas based on a ref column and find the differences.
Dataframes looks like below
"Dataframe 1":
ref key1 key2 key3 key4 key5
001 vk11 vk12 vk13 vk14 vk15
002 vk21 vk22 vk23 vk24 vk25
003 vk31 vk32 vk33 vk34 vk35
004 vk41 vk42 vk43 vk44 vk45
005 vk51 vk52 vk53 vk54 vk55
006 vk61 vk62 vk63 vk64 vk65
"Dataframe 2":
ref key1 key2 key3 key4 key5
001 vk11 vk12 vk13 vk14 vk15
002 vk21 vkkk vk23 vk24 vk25
003 vk31 vk32 vk33 vkkk vk35
005 vkkk vkkk vkkk vk54 vk55
Final result set should look like below.
"Final Dataframe":
key key1 key1 key1 key2 key2 key2 key3 key3 key3 key4 key4 key4 key5 key5 key5 Hdr DF-1 DF-2 VALC DF-1 DF-2 VALC DF-1 DF-2 VALC DF-1 DF-2 VALC DF-1 DF-2 VALC 002 vk21 vk21 N vk22 vkkk Y vk23 vk23 N vk24 vk24 N vk25 vk25 N 003 vk31 vk31 N vk32 vk32 N vk33 vk33 N vk34 vkkk Y vk35 vk35 N 005 vk51 vkkk Y vk52 vkkk Y vk53 vkkk Y vk54 vk54 Y vk55 vk55 N
PC: VALC - value changed; DF1 - Dataframe 1; DF2 - Dataframe 2;
Use concat
with inner
join and keys parameter first:
df = pd.concat([df1.set_index('ref'), df2.set_index('ref')],
axis=1,
join='inner',
keys=('df1','df2'))
Then compare selected values by DataFrame.xs
and create new DataFrame
with numpy.where
and MultiIndex.from_product
:
mask = df.xs('df1', axis=1).eq(df.xs('df2', axis=1))
df1 = pd.DataFrame(np.where(mask, 'N','Y'),
index=mask.index,
columns=pd.MultiIndex.from_product([['valc'], mask.columns]))
print (df1)
valc
key1 key2 key3 key4 key5
ref
1 N N N N N
2 N Y N N N
3 N N N Y N
5 Y Y Y N N
Join together and sorting columns:
df = pd.concat([df, df1], axis=1).sort_index(axis=1, level=[1,0])
Remove equal rows by DataFrame.all
and inverted mask with ~
:
df = df[~mask.all(axis=1)]
print (df)
df1 df2 valc df1 df2 valc df1 df2 valc df1 df2 valc df1 \
key1 key1 key1 key2 key2 key2 key3 key3 key3 key4 key4 key4 key5
