Note that in the last example, data.loc[487] (the row with index value 487) is not equal to data.iloc[487] (the 487th row in the data). The index of the DataFrame can be out of numeric order, and/or a string or multi-value.
2b. Boolean / Logical indexing using .loc
Conditional selections with boolean arrays using data.loc[<selection>] is the most common method that I use with Pandas DataFrames. With boolean indexing or logical selection, you pass an array or Series of True/False values to the .loc indexer to select the rows where your Series has True values.
In most use cases, you will make selections based on the values of different columns in your data set.
For example, the statement data[‘first_name’] == ‘Antonio’] produces a Pandas Series with a True/False value for every row in the ‘data’ DataFrame, where there are “True” values for the rows where the first_name is “Antonio”. These type of boolean arrays can be passed directly to the .loc indexer as so:
Using a boolean True/False series to select rows in a pandas data frame – all rows with first name of “Antonio” are selected.
As before, a second argument can be passed to .loc to select particular columns out of the data frame. Again, columns are referred to by name for the loc indexer and can be a single string, a list of columns, or a slice “:” operation.
Selecting multiple columns with loc can be achieved by passing column names to the second argument of .loc[]
请注意，在选择列时，如果仅选择了一列，则.loc运算符将返回一个Series。对于单列DataFrame，使用单元素列表来保留DataFrame格式，例如：
如果将单个列的选择作为字符串，则从.loc返回一个系列。传递一个列表以获取DataFrame。
为清晰起见，请确保您了解.loc选项的以下附加示例：
＃选择名为Antonio，＃的行以及'city'和'email'之间的所有列
data.loc [data [ ' first_name ' ] == ' Antonio '，' city '：' email ' ]
# Select rows where the email column ends with 'hotmail.com', include all columns
Logical selections and boolean Series can also be passed to the generic [] indexer of a pandas DataFrame and will give the same results: data.loc[data[‘id’] == 9] == data[data[‘id’] == 9] .
3. Selecting pandas data using ix
Note: The ix indexer has been deprecated in recent versions of Pandas, starting with version 0.20.1.
The ix[] indexer is a hybrid of .loc and .iloc. Generally, ix is label based and acts just as the .loc indexer. However, .ix also supports integer type selections (as in .iloc) where passed an integer. This only works where the index of the DataFrame is not integer based. ix will accept any of the inputs of .loc and .iloc.
Slightly more complex, I prefer to explicitly use .iloc and .loc to avoid unexpected results.
As an example:
# ix indexing works just the same as .loc when passed strings
data.ix[['Andrade']] == data.loc[['Andrade']]
# ix indexing works the same as .iloc when passed integers.
data.ix[[33]] == data.iloc[[33]]
# ix only works in both modes when the index of the DataFrame is NOT an integer itself.

With a slight change of syntax, you can actually update your DataFrame in the same statement as you select and filter using .loc indexer. This particular pattern allows you to update values in columns depending on different conditions. The setting operation does not make a copy of the data frame, but edits the original data.
As an example:
# Change the first name of all rows with an ID greater than 2000 to "John"
data.loc[data['id'] >2000, "first_name"] ="John"
# Change the first name of all rows with an ID greater than 2000 to "John"
data.loc[data['id'] >2000, "first_name"] ="John"
