Filtering Row Data based on Column Values in Pandas
by Abdul Rawoof A R Updated: Mar 1, 2023
Solution Kit
In Pandas, we can use df[df["courses"]=='spark'] to filter rows by a specific condition in Pandas DataFarme and note that this expression returns a new DataFrame with selected rows in Pandas and we can also write the above statement with a variable.
To Filter by Column Value in pandas, we use the query() function. In Pandas, the DataFrame.query() function filters rows based on column value; after applying the expression, it will return a new DataFrame. If we wanted to update or modify the existing DataFrame, use the inplace=True param, and here, we are using conditions to get the result of the dataframe from row data. We have a dataframe consisting of some data with values inside it. Now we will filter the data depending on the column value in pandas. To select rows based on different conditions in Pandas, we can select the rows from Pandas DataFrame based on the column values or based on multiple conditions either using DataFrame.loc[] attribute, DataFrme.apply, or DataFrame.query() method to use the lambda function in Pandas.
Here is an example of how to filter row data based on column values in Pandas:
