Python - Replace values of a DataFrame with the value of another DataFrame in Pandas
To replace values of a DataFrame with the value of another DataFrame, use the replace() method n Pandas.
At first, let us first create a DataFrame −
dataFrame1 = pd.DataFrame({"Car": ["Audi", "Lamborghini"], "Place": ["US", "UK"], "Units": [200, 500]})Let us create another DataFrame −
dataFrame2 = pd.DataFrame({"Car": ["BMW", "Lexus"], "Place": ["India", "Australia"], "Units": [800, 1000]})Next, get a value from DataFrame2 and replace with a value from DataFrame1 −
# get value from 2nd DataFrame i = dataFrame2['Car'][1] # replacing with a value from the 1st DataFrame j = dataFrame1['Car'][0]
Finally, use the replace() method to replace the value of one DataFrame with value of another DataFrame −
dataFrame2 = dataFrame2.replace(i, j)
Example
Following is the code −
import pandas as pd
dataFrame1 = pd.DataFrame({"Car": ["Audi", "Lamborghini"],"Place": ["US", "UK"], "Units": [200, 500]})
print("Dataframe 1...")
print(dataFrame1)
dataFrame2 = pd.DataFrame({"Car": ["BMW", "Lexus"],"Place": ["India", "Australia"], "Units": [800, 1000]})
print("\nDataframe 2...")
print(dataFrame2)
## Get a value from DataFrame2
## and replace with a value
## from DataFrame1
# getting value from 2nd DataFrame
i = dataFrame2['Car'][1]
# replacing with a value from the 1st DataFrame
j = dataFrame1['Car'][0]
# replace values of one DataFrame
# with the value of another DataFrame
dataFrame2 = dataFrame2.replace(i, j)
# Display the updated DataFrame
print("\nUpdated Dataframe 2...")
print(dataFrame2)Output
This will produce the following output −
Dataframe 1... Car Place Units 0 Audi US 200 1 Lamborghini UK 500 Dataframe 2... Car Place Units 0 BMW India 800 1 Lexus Australia 1000 Updated Dataframe 2... Car Place Units 0 BMW India 800 1 Audi Australia 1000
