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

For me the above solutions were close but added some unwanted /n's and dtype:object, so here's a modified version:

df.groupby(['name', 'month'])['text'].apply(lambda text: ''.join(text.to_string(index=False))).str.replace('(\\n)', '').reset_index()
