dict存到pandas_根据存储在dict中的条件从Pandas数据帧中选择数据

I have a Pandas dataframe that contains a large number of variables. This can be simplified as:

tempDF = pd.DataFrame({ 'var1': [12,12,12,12,45,45,45,51,51,51],

'var2': ['a','a','b','b','b','b','b','c','c','d'],

'var3': ['e','f','f','f','f','g','g','g','g','g'],

'var4': [1,2,3,3,4,5,6,6,6,7]})

If I wanted to select a subset of the dataframe (e.g. var2='b' and var4=3), I would use:

tempDF.loc[(tempDF['var2']=='b') & (tempDF['var4']==3),:]

However, is it possible to select a subset of the dataframe if the matching criteria are stored within a dict, such as:

tempDict = {'var2': 'b','var4': 3}

It's important that the variable names are not predefined and the number of variables included in the dict is changeable.

I've been puzzling over this for a while and so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You could create mask for each condition using list comprehension and then join them by converting to dataframe and using all:

In [23]: pd.DataFrame([tempDF[key] == val for key, val in tempDict.items()]).T.all(axis=1)

Out[23]:

0 False

1 False

2 True

3 True

4 False

5 False

6 False

7 False

8 False

9 False

dtype: bool

Then you could slice your dataframe with that mask:

mask = pd.DataFrame([tempDF[key] == val for key, val in tempDict.items()]).T.all(axis=1)

In [25]: tempDF[mask]

Out[25]:

var1 var2 var3 var4

2 12 b f 3

3 12 b f 3
