I have the following dataframe:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1
1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0
2 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1
...
I want to get for each row the longest sequence of value 0 in the row. so, the expected results for this dataframe will be an array that looks like this:
[5,4,2,...]
as on the first row, maximum sequenc eof value 0 is 5, ect.
I have seen this post and tried for the beginning to get this for the first row (though I would like to do this at once for the whole dataframe) but I got errors:
s=df_day.iloc[0]
(~s).cumsum()[s].value_counts().max()
TypeError: ufunc 'invert' not supported for the input types, and the inputs could not be safely coerced to any supported types according to the casting rule ''safe''
when I inserted manually the values like this:
s=pd.Series([0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1])
(~s).cumsum()[s].value_counts().max()
>>>7
I got 7 which is number of total 0 in the row but not the max sequence. However, I don't understand why it raises the error at first, and , more important, I would like to run it on the end on the while dataframe and per row.
My end goal: get the maximum uninterrupted occurance of value 0 in a row.
The following code should do the job.
the function longest_streak
will count the number of consecutive zeros and return the max, and you can use apply
on your df.
from itertools import groupby
def longest_streak(l):
lst = []
for n,c in groupby(l):
num,count = n,sum(1 for i in c)
if num==0:
lst.append((num,count))
maxx = max([y for x,y in lst])
return(maxx)
df.apply(lambda x: longest_streak(x),axis=1)
