使用Pandas GroupBy和VALUE_COUNTS查找最常用的值

问题描述

我正在使用表中的两列。

+-------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|  Area Name  |                       Code Description                       |
+-------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| N Hollywood | VIOLATION OF RESTRAINING ORDER                               |
| N Hollywood | CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                       |
| N Hollywood | CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                       |
| N Hollywood | ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WEAPON, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT               |
| Southeast   | ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WEAPON, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT               |
| West Valley | CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                       |
| West Valley | CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                       |
| 77th Street | RAPE, FORCIBLE                                               |
| Foothill    | CRM AGNST CHLD (13 OR UNDER) (14-15 & SUSP 10 YRS OLDER)0060 |
| N Hollywood | VANDALISM - FELONY ($400 & OVER, ALL CHURCH VANDALISMS) 0114 |
+-------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+

我正在使用Groupby和Value_Counts按区域名称查找代码说明。

df.groupby(['Area Name'])['Code Description'].value_counts()

有没有办法只查看每个区域名称的前‘n’个值？如果我将.nlargest(3)追加到上面的代码，它只返回一个区域名称的结果。

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Wilshire     SHOPLIFTING-GRAND THEFT ($950.01 & OVER)                         7 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

解决方案

使用value_counts结果中的head每组：

df.groupby('Area Name')['Code Description'].apply(lambda x: x.value_counts().head(3))

输出：

Area Name                                                                
77th Street  RAPE, FORCIBLE                                                  1
Foothill     CRM AGNST CHLD (13 OR UNDER) (14-15 & SUSP 10 YRS OLDER)0060    1
N Hollywood  CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                          2
             VIOLATION OF RESTRAINING ORDER                                  1
             ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WEAPON, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT                  1
Southeast    ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WEAPON, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT                  1
West Valley  CRIMINAL THREATS - NO WEAPON DISPLAYED                          2
