multi query a dataframe table

Question

I have a dataframe as follows:

student_id	gender	major	admitted
35377	female	Chemistry	False
56105	male	Physics	True

etc.

How do I find the admission rate for females?

I have tried:

df.loc[(df['gender'] == "female") & (df['admitted'] == "True")].sum() 

But this returns an error:

TypeError: invalid type comparison

Answer 1

I guess the last column is Boolean. can you try this

df[df['gender'] == "F"]['admitted'].sum()

Answer 2

Remove that .loc and use this code: df[(df['gender'] == "female") & (df['admitted'] == "True")].sum()
