How to make a column with lists from columns of list elements in a pandas dataframe?










1















I have a pandas dataframe like



 test = pd.DataFrame([[['P','N'], ['Z', 'P']],[['N','N'], ['Z', 'P']]], 
columns=['c1', 'c2'])


I want to add another column c3 to test whose elements are



['PZ', 'NP']
['NZ', 'NP']


How can I do this?

          Use assign:



          df = test.assign(c3 = [[x[0]+y[0], x[1]+y[1]] for x,y in test.values.tolist()])


          Or:



          df = test.assign(c3 = list(map(list,zip(test.c1.str[0]+test.c2.str[0],test.c1.str[1]+test.c2.str[1]))))

          print(df)
          c1 c2 c3
          0 [P, N] [Z, P] [PZ, NP]
          1 [N, N] [Z, P] [NZ, NP]



          print([[x[0]+y[0], x[1]+y[1]] for x,y in test.values.tolist()])
          [['PZ', 'NP'], ['NZ', 'NP']]

          print(list(map(list,zip(test.c1.str[0]+test.c2.str[0],test.c1.str[1]+test.c2.str[1]))))
