Concatenate Pandas DataFrames Without Duplicates
In this article, we are going to concatenate two dataframes using pandas module.
In order to perform concatenation of two dataframes, we are going to use the pandas.concat().drop_duplicates() method in pandas module.
Step-by-step Approach:
- Import module.
- Load two sample dataframes as variables.
- Concatenate the dataframes using pandas.concat().drop_duplicates() method.
- Display the new dataframe generated.
Below are some examples which depict how to perform concatenation between two dataframes using pandas module without duplicates:
Example 1:
# Importing pandas libraryimport pandas as pd# loading dataframesdataframe1 = pd.DataFrame({'columnA': [20, 30, 40], 'columnB': [200, 300, 400]})dataframe2 = pd.DataFrame({'columnA': [50, 20, 60], 'columnB': [500, 200, 600]})# Concatenating dataframes without duplicatesnew_dataframe = pd.concat([dataframe1, dataframe2]).drop_duplicates()# Display concatenated dataframenew_dataframe |
Output:
Here, we have concatenated two dataframes using pandas.concat() method.
Example 2:
- Python3
# Importing pandas libraryimport pandas as pd# loading dataframesdataframe1 = pd.DataFrame({'name': ['rahul', 'anjali', 'kajal'], 'age': [23, 28, 30]})dataframe2 = pd.DataFrame({'name': ['devesh', 'rashi', 'anjali'], 'age': [20, 15, 28]})# Concatenating two dataframes wtithout duplicatesnew_dataframe = pd.concat([dataframe1, dataframe2]).drop_duplicates()# Resetting indexnew_dataframe = new_dataframe.reset_index(drop=True)# Display dataframe generatednew_dataframe |
Output:
As shown in the output image, we get the concatenation of dataframes without removing duplicates.
Example 3:
- Python3
# Importing pandas librarayimport pandas as pd# Loading dataframesdataframe1 = pd.DataFrame({'empname': ['rohan', 'hina', 'alisa', ], 'department': ['IT', 'admin', 'finance', ], 'designation': ['Sr.developer', 'administrator', 'executive', ]})dataframe2 = pd.DataFrame({'empname': ['rishi', 'huma', 'alisa', ], 'department': ['cyber security', 'HR', 'finance', ], 'designation': ['penetration tester', 'HR executive', 'executive', ]})# Concatenating two dataframes wtithout duplicatesnew_dataframe = pd.concat([dataframe1, dataframe2]).drop_duplicates()# Resetting indexnew_dataframe = new_dataframe.reset_index(drop=True)# Display dataframe generatednew_dataframe |
Output:
Here is another example, which depicts how to concatenate two dataframes.
