Concatenate strings from several rows using Pandas groupby

Question

I want to merge several strings in a dataframe based on a groupedby in Pandas.

This is my code so far:

import pandas as pd
from io import StringIO

         


        

Answer 1

The answer by EdChum provides you with a lot of flexibility but if you just want to concateate strings into a column of list objects you can also:

output_series = df.groupby(['name','month'])['text'].apply(list)
