cartesian product in pandas

Question

I have two pandas dataframes:

from pandas import DataFrame
df1 = DataFrame({\'col1\':[1,2],\'col2\':[3,4]})
df2 = DataFrame({\'col3\':[5,6]})     
         


        

Answer 1

I find using pandas MultiIndex to be the best tool for the job. If you have a list of lists lists_list, call pd.MultiIndex.from_product(lists_list) and iterate over the result (or use it in DataFrame index).
