Consider a dataframe which contains several groups of integers:
d = pd.DataFrame({'label': ['a','a','a','a','b','b','b','b'], 'value': [1,2,3,2,7,1,8,9]})
d
label value
0 a 1
1 a 2
2 a 3
3 a 2
4 b 7
5 b 1
6 b 8
7 b 9
For each of these groups of integers, each integer has to be bigger or equal to the previous one. If not the case, it takes on the value of the previous integer. I replace using
s.where(~(s < s.shift()), s.shift())
which works fine for a single series. I can even group the dataframe, and loop through each extracted series:
grouped = s.groupby('label')['value']
for _, s in grouped:
print(s.where(~(s < s.shift()), s.shift()))
0 1.0
1 2.0
2 3.0
3 3.0
Name: value, dtype: float64
4 7.0
5 7.0
6 8.0
7 9.0
Name: value, dtype: float64
However, how do I now get these values back into my original dataframe?
Or, is there a better way to do this? I don't care for using .groupby and don't consider the for loop a pretty solution either...
Ben.T :
IIUC, you can use cummax in the groupby like:
d['val_max'] = d.groupby('label')['value'].cummax()
print (d)
label value val_max
0 a 1 1
1 a 2 2
2 a 3 3
3 a 2 3
4 b 7 7
5 b 1 7
6 b 8 8
7 b 9 9
