In the df underneath, I want to sort the values of column 'cdf_X' based on column 'A' and 'X'. Column 'X' and 'cdf_X' are connected, so if a value in 'X' appears in column 'A', the value of 'cdf_X' should be repositioned to that index number of column 'A' in a new column. (Values don't occur twice in a column 'cdf_A'.)
Example: 'X'=3 at index 0 -> cdf_X=0.05 at index 0 -> '3' appears in column 'A' at index 4 -> cdf_A at index 4 = cdf_X at index 0
Initial df:
A X cdf
0 7 3 0.05
1 4 4 0.15
2 11 7 0.27
3 9 9 0.45
4 3 11 0.69
5 13 13 1.00
Desired df:
A X cdf_X cdf_A
0 7 3 0.05 0.27
1 4 4 0.15 0.15
2 11 7 0.27 0.69
3 9 9 0.45 0.45
4 3 11 0.69 0.05
5 13 13 1.00 1.00
Tried code:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [7,4,11,9,3,13],
"cdf": [0.05,0.15,0.27,0.45,0.69,1.00],
"X": [3,4,7,9,11,13]})
-> I'm still figuring out how to do it
I think you need
replace
