Looping through a dataframe row by row is not something you want to do.

import pandas as pd
t = pd.DataFrame({'a': range(0, 100), 'b': range(0, 100)})

C = []
for i,r in t.iterrows():
    C.append((r['a'], r['b']))

C = []
for ir in t.itertuples():
    C.append((ir[1], ir[2]))

C = []
for r in zip(t['a'], t['b']):
    C.append((r[0], r[1]))

C = []
for r in zip(*t.to_dict("list").values()):
    C.append((r[0], r[1]))


Alternative to .apply() method, yet I haven’t seen a significant benefit.

result = [query_distance(conn, route, first_visit, last_visit)
          for route, first_visit, last_visit in zip(rs.RouteID, rs.FirstVisitTime, rs.LastVisitTime)]

Another example for ‘apply method vs list comprehensions’. This one uses to_records() which generates rec.array which is an awesome thing.

ra_expanded.apply(lambda x: query_collected_bins(conn, x.RouteID, x.StartTime, x.EndTime), axis=1)

records = ra_expanded.loc[:,["RouteID", "StartTime", "EndTime"]].to_records()
[query_collected_bins(conn, int(x.RouteID), x.StartTime, x.EndTime) for x in records]

Wanna LAG? Use shift function.

df['col_diff'] = df['col'] - df['col'].shift(1)

If you need difs you can use .diff() too.

df['col_diff'] = df.col.diff()

Previously, I’ve published a blog post about deploying static content on heroku with basic authentication. The main purpose was to get basic auth for a freely hosted static website. In that post, we hosted the source code on GitLab and configured a CI/CD pipeline to render the static content …

Each git commit has a field called Author which consists ‘user.name’ and ‘user.email’. We usually set these variables once, after installing git, with git config --global so that each repo gets the variables from the global definition. We can also set them locally for a …

In this post, I’ll first walk through hosting static content with basic authentication. Then, we’ll look into deploying to Heroku using GitLab Pipelines, more specifically deploying a certain sub-directory within the project instead of pushing the whole project. Also, I’ll share …

I’ve been using WSL-2 on Windows for over a year. It’s very useful because some Python packages are just a headache to install on Windows. Also, docker. It’s just better on Linux. Yet, WSL-2 can also be problematic. I remember trying a dual-boot setup when things just went way too …

In this post, I’ll share how to install geopandas and some other gis related packages on Windows. If you are on Mac or Linux you can probably just pip install those without any issue. I usually had to do a google search every time I wanted to install these packages on Windows environment. Of …
