notverygood :
I have the following df
data = {'Name':['TOMy', 'NICKs', 'KRISHqws', 'JACKdpo'], 'Age':[20, 21, 19, 18]}
How can I remove lowercase letters from the Name column such that when looking at data['Name']
, I have TOM,NICK,KRISH,JACK
.
I tried the following but no luck,
data['Name'].mask(data['Name'].str.match(r'^[a-z]+$'))
data['Name'] = data['Name'].str.translate(None,string.ascii_lowercase)
Willem Van Onsem :
You can update the name
column by making use of .str.replace(..)
[pandas-doc]:
df['Name'] = df['Name'].str.replace('[a-z]', '')
For the given sample data, this gives us:
>>> df['Name'].str.replace('[a-z]', '')
0 TOM
1 NICK
2 KRISH
3 JACK
Name: Name, dtype: object
