Rename all values in column pandas base a list of values-CodePudding

I have this list of lists = [['Lost Summoner Kitty', 70], ['Ironbound', 4000]]

And I also have this dataframe:

I would like to find a general way to replace item_id integer by his name that is present in the previous list

CodePudding user response：

Turn the list of lists into a dictionary where the IDs are the keys. Then use that in pandas.Series.map() to convert the item_id columns.

mapping = dict(map(reversed, list_of_lists))
df.item_id = df.item_id.map(mapping)

CodePudding user response：

You can create a dict from the list and then use pandas.Series.map on the created dict.

lst = [['Lost Summoner Kitty', 70], ['Ironbound', 4000]]
dct = {num: entry for entry, num in lst}
# dct -> {70: 'Lost Summoner Kitty', 4000: 'Ironbound'}

df['item_id'] = df['item_id'].map(dct)

CodePudding user response：

You can use map :

df['item_name'] = [dict([l[::-1] for l in lists]).get(i, None) 
                                 for i in df['item_id']]

Output :

print(df)
  steam_id  item_id            item_name
0      XXX       70  Lost Summoner Kitty
1      YYY     4000            Ironbound
