Pandas：根據源列中的值將值寫入目標列，而不覆蓋目標列中的任何現有值

Question

我有以下數據框：

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

df = pd.DataFrame({'Manufacturer':['Mercedes', 'BMW', 'Mercedes', 'Audi', 'Honda', 'Aston Martin', 'Audi', 'Jeep', 'Land Rover'],
                       'Color':['Blue', 'White', 'Black', 'Green', 'Red', 'White', 'Silver', 'Silver', 'Blue'],
                       'Country':['United States', '["United States", "Mexico"]', 'Ireland', 'Japan', '["United States","Canada"]', 'Sweden', 'United Kingdom', 'United Kingdom', '["Brazil","United States","Canada"]'],
                       'Region':['Americas','','Europe','Asia','','Europe', 'Europe', 'Europe', '']    
                  })


    Manufacturer    Color   Country                               Region
0   Mercedes        Blue    United States                         Americas
1   BMW             White   ['United States','Mexico']  
2   Mercedes        Black   Ireland                               Europe
3   Audi            Green   Japan                                 Asia
4   Honda           Red     ['Canada','United States']  
5   Aston Martin    White   Sweden                                Europe
6   Audi            Silver  United Kingdom                        Europe
7   Jeep            Silver  United Kingdom                        Europe
8   Land Rover      Blue    ['Brazil','United States','Canada']  

如果出現以下情況，我想在Region列中寫入“美洲”：

a) Region列中沒有現有值，並且

b) Country列在字符串的某處有“United States”

可以使用np.where ，如下所示：

df['Region'] = np.where(df['Country'].str.contains('United States'), 'Americas', '**ERROR**')

但是，這種方法會覆蓋Region列中的現有值：

    Manufacturer    Color   Country                                Region
0   Mercedes        Blue    United States                          Americas
1   BMW             White   ["United States", "Japan"]             Americas
2   Mercedes        Black   Ireland                                **ERROR**
3   Audi            Green   Japan                                  **ERROR**
4   Honda           Red     ["United States","Canada"]             Americas
5   Aston Martin    White   Sweden                                 **ERROR**
6   Audi            Silver  United Kingdom                         **ERROR**
7   Jeep            Silver  United Kingdom                         **ERROR**
8   Land Rover      Blue    ["Brazil","United States","Canada"]    Americas

在不覆蓋Region列中的任何現有值的情況下執行此操作的最佳方法是什么？

提前致謝！

通過稍微修改代碼，您可以輕松地使用自己的方法。 我希望這段代碼能解決你的問題：

df['Region'] = np.where((df['Region'].isnull()|(df['Region']==''))&(df['Country'].str.contains('United States')), 'Americas', df['Region'])
