Given a dataframe
multival date string others
23|34|45 12/05/1991 name1 xyz
31|46|25 16/02/1990 name2 abc
how can I create an index and lookup in above data series using values from another data series such that it match on
Example: lookup on 23, 12/05/1991 and name1 should yield first data series
sorry, but your question is not clear what exactly is needed: creating an index or just looking up data in one DF based on values from another DF's columns. If it is the latter, you can easily do it by creating filter conditions (masks) and applying them to your DF:
a = pd.DataFrame(
{
"date": ['12/05/1991', '16/02/1990'],
"string": ['n1', 'n2'],
"others": ['x', 'y'],
}
)
b = pd.DataFrame(
{
"date": ['01/01/1991', '16/02/1990'],
"string": ['n1', 'n2'],
"others": ['xx', 'yy'],
}
)
>>> a
date string others
0 12/05/1991 n1 x
1 16/02/1990 n2 y
>>> b
date string others
0 01/01/1991 n1 xx
1 16/02/1990 n2 yy
filters = a["date"].isin(b["date"]) & a["string"].isin(b["string"])
a[filters]
>>> a[filters]
date string others
1 16/02/1990 n2 y
l=[]
for j in range(len(df['A header'])):
l.append(df['A header'][0][j])
df['A header']=l
out:
A header date string others
0 23 12/05/1991 n1 x
1 34 16/02/1990 n2 y
