Having two data frames:
df1 = pd.DataFrame({'a':[1,2,3],'b':[4,5,6]})
a b
0 1 4
1 2 5
2 3 6
df2 = pd.DataFrame({'c':[7],'d':[8]})
c d
0 7 8
The goal is to add all df2
column values to df1
, repeated and create the following result. It is assumed that both data frames do not share any column names.
a b c d
0 1 4 7 8
1 2 5 7 8
2 3 6 7 8
If there are strings columns names is possible use DataFrame.assign
with unpack Series
created by selecing first row of df2
:
df = df1.assign(**df2.iloc[0])
print (df)
a b c d
0 1 4 7 8
1 2 5 7 8
2 3 6 7 8
Another idea is repeat values by df1.index
with DataFrame.reindex
and use DataFrame.join
(here first index value of df2
is same like first index value of df1.index
):
df = df1.join(df2.reindex(df1.index, method='ffill'))
print (df)
a b c d
0 1 4 7 8
1 2 5 7 8
2 3 6 7 8
If no missing values in original df
is possible use forward filling missing values in last step, but also are types changed to floats, thanks @Dishin H Goyan:
df = df1.join(df2).ffill()
print (df)
a b c d
0 1 4 7.0 8.0
1 2 5 7.0 8.0
2 3 6 7.0 8.0
