Append % symbol to dict numeric values in a dataframe column-CodePudding

I have a dataframe like as shown below

key, values_list
 1, {'ABC':100}
 2, {'DEF':100}
 3, {'ASE':95,'ABC':5}
 4, {'ABC':55,'ASE':40,'DEF':5}
 5, {'DEF':90,'ABC':5,'ASE':2.5,'XYZ':2.5}

I would like to do the below

a) Convert dict values to string and include % symbol at the end of each string

So, I tried the below

df['values_list'].str.replace(r'[0-9] ', '[0-9]%') # Approach 1
np.where(df['values_list'].str.isdigit(),df['values_list'] '%',df['values_list']) #Approach 2

I expect my output to be like as below. You can see that we have % symbol for each numeric value.

key, values_list
 1, {'ABC':100%}
 2, {'DEF':100%}
 3, {'ASE':95%,'ABC':5%}
 4, {'ABC':55%,'ASE':40%,'DEF':5%}
 5, {'DEF':90%,'ABC':5%,'ASE':2.5%,'XYZ':2.5%}

CodePudding user response：

For this purpose, you can use apply and then add % to each value of dict like below:

>>> df['values_list'] = df['values_list'].apply(lambda x: {k: f'{v}%' for k,v in x.items()})
# OR
>>> df['values_list'] = df['values_list'].astype('str').str.replace('([ -]?[0-9] \.?[0-9]*)', r'\1%', regex=True)
>>> df
