Pandas: Filtering records by label or index in a given dataframe
Pandas Filter: Exercise-15 with Solution
Write a Pandas program to filter the specified columns and records by range from world alcohol consumption dataset.
Test Data:
Year WHO region Country Beverage Types Display Value 0 1986 Western Pacific Viet Nam Wine 0.00 1 1986 Americas Uruguay Other 0.50 2 1985 Africa Cte d'Ivoire Wine 1.62 3 1986 Americas Colombia Beer 4.27 4 1987 Americas Saint Kitts and Nevis Beer 1.98
Sample Solution:
Python Code :
import pandas as pd
# World alcohol consumption data
w_a_con = pd.read_csv('world_alcohol.csv')
print("World alcohol consumption sample data:")
print(w_a_con.head())
print("\nFiltering records by label or index:")
print(w_a_con.loc[0:4, ["WHO region", "Beverage Types"]])
Sample Output:
World alcohol consumption sample data: Year WHO region ... Beverage Types Display Value 0 1986 Western Pacific ... Wine 0.00 1 1986 Americas ... Other 0.50 2 1985 Africa ... Wine 1.62 3 1986 Americas ... Beer 4.27 4 1987 Americas ... Beer 1.98 [5 rows x 5 columns] Filtering records by label or index: WHO region Beverage Types 0 Western Pacific Wine 1 Americas Other 2 Africa Wine 3 Americas Beer 4 Americas Beer

Python: Tips of the Day
Find current directory and file's directory:
To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:
import os dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)
To get the current working directory use
import os cwd = os.getcwd()
Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:
- The os and os.path modules.
- The __file__ constant
- os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
- os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
- os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
- os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
