What I have done so far is that I have selected unique values from the complaint type and then added them to list and created a list with the complains given above in complaint_list.
all_complaint_list=list(task3['Complaint Type'].unique())
complaint_list=['Blocked Driveway','DOF Literature Request','GENRAL CONSTRUCTION','HEATING','Illegal Parking','NONCONST','PAINT-PLASTER','PLUMBING','Street Condition','Street Light Condition']
for i in complaint_list:
if i not in all_complaint_list:
continue
else:
all_complaint_list.remove(i)
I have used pandas.drop method but it doesn't work.
CodePudding user response：
First make that dictionary a Pandas Dataframe:
df = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(dict)
Then you can use isin:
df[df["Complaint Type"].isin(complaint_list)]
This should give you all the rows that match the items in complaint_list.
