how to clip pandas dataframe column-wise?

Question

I have

In [67]: a
Out[67]:

   0  1  2
0  1  2  3
1  4  5  6

when I run

In [69]: a.clip(lower=[1.5,2.5,3.5],axis=1)
         


        

Answer 1

lower : float or array_like, default None

According to API reference, you're supposed to use same shaped array.

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

...

print df.shape

(2, 3)

print df.clip(lower=(df.clip(lower=(np.array([[n+1.5 for n in range(df.shape[1])] for _ in range(df.shape[0])])), axis=1))

     0    1    2
0  1.5  2.5  3.5
1  4.0  5.0  6.0
