Pandas : filter the rows based on a column containing lists

How to filter the rows in a data frame based on another column value?

I have a data frame which is,

ip_df:
     class    name     marks          min_marks  min_subjects
0    I        tom      [89,85,80,74]  80         2
1    II       sam      [65,72,43,40]  85         1

Based on the column values of "min_subject" and "min_marks", the row should be filtered.

The final outcome should be,

op_df:
     class    name     marks          min_marks  min_subjects flag
0    I        tom      [89,85,80,74]  80         2            1
1    II       sam      [65,72,43,40]  85         1            0

Can anyone help me to achieve the same in the data frame?

To avoid the for loop and make full use of parallel computations you can use the new function explode (Pandas 0.25.0):

df1 = df.explode('marks')
print(df1)

Output:

  class name marks  min_marks  min_subjects
0     I  tom    89         80             2
0     I  tom    85         80             2
0     I  tom    80         80             2
0     I  tom    74         80             2
1    II  sam    65         85             1
1    II  sam    72         85             1
1    II  sam    43         85             1
1    II  sam    40         85             1

Compare the columns marks and min_marks:

df['flag'] = df1['marks'].gt(df1['min_marks'])\
.groupby(df1.index).sum().ge(df['min_subjects']).astype(int)

print(df)

Output:

  class name             marks  min_marks  min_subjects  flag
0     I  tom  [89, 85, 80, 74]         80             2     1
1    II  sam  [65, 72, 43, 40]         85             1     0

Use list comprehension with zip by 3 columns, compare each value in generator and sum for count, last compare by minimal marks and convert to integers:

df['flag'] = [1 if sum(x > c for x in a) >= b else 0 
                 for a, b, c in zip(df['marks'], df['min_subjects'], df['min_marks'])]

Alternative with convert boolean by int to 0,1:

df['flag'] = [int(sum(x > c for x in a) >= b)
                 for a, b, c in zip(df['marks'], df['min_subjects'], df['min_marks'])]

Or solution with numpy:

df['flag'] = [int(np.sum(np.array(a) > c) >= b)
                  for a, b, c in zip(df['marks'], df['min_subjects'], df['min_marks'])]

print (df)
  class name             marks  min_marks  min_subjects  flag
0     I  tom  [89, 85, 80, 74]         80             2     1
1    II  sam  [65, 72, 43, 40]         85             1     0
