Pandas Dataframe Check if column value is in column list

Question

I have a dataframe df:

data = {\'id\':[12,112],
        \'idlist\':[[1,5,7,12,112],[5,7,12,111,113]]
       }
df=pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
         


        

Answer 1

Use apply:

df['flag'] = df.apply(lambda x: int(x['id'] in x['idlist']), axis=1)
print (df)
    id                idlist  flag
0   12    [1, 5, 7, 12, 112]     1
1  112  [5, 7, 12, 111, 113]     0

Similar:

df['flag'] = df.apply(lambda x: x['id'] in x['idlist'], axis=1).astype(int)
print (df)
    id                idlist  flag
0   12    [1, 5, 7, 12, 112]     1
1  112  [5, 7, 12, 111, 113]     0

With list comprehension:

df['flag'] = [int(x[0] in x[1]) for x in df[['id', 'idlist']].values.tolist()]
print (df)
    id                idlist  flag
0   12    [1, 5, 7, 12, 112]     1
1  112  [5, 7, 12, 111, 113]     0

Solutions for filtering:

df = df[df.apply(lambda x: x['id'] in x['idlist'], axis=1)]
print (df)
   id              idlist
0  12  [1, 5, 7, 12, 112]

df = df[[x[0] in x[1] for x in df[['id', 'idlist']].values.tolist()]]
print (df)

   id              idlist
0  12  [1, 5, 7, 12, 112]
