How do I get a list of all the duplicate items using pandas in python?
Method #1: print all rows where the ID is one of the IDs in duplicated:
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df = pd.read_csv("dup.csv")
>>> ids = df["ID"]
>>> df[ids.isin(ids[ids.duplicated()])].sort("ID")

but I couldn't think of a nice way to prevent repeating ids
so many times. I prefer method #2: groupby
on the ID.
>>> pd.concat(g for _, g in df.groupby("ID") if len(g) > 1)

With Pandas version 0.17, you can set 'keep = False' in the duplicated function to get all the duplicate items.
In [1]: import pandas as pd
In [2]: df = pd.DataFrame(['a','b','c','d','a','b'])
In [3]: df
Out[3]:
0
0 a
1 b
2 c
3 d
4 a
5 b
In [4]: df[df.duplicated(keep=False)]
Out[4]:
0
0 a
1 b
4 a
5 b
df[df.duplicated(['ID'], keep=False)]
it'll return all duplicated rows back to you.
According to documentation:
keep : {‘first’, ‘last’, False}, default ‘first’
- first : Mark duplicates as True except for the first occurrence.
- last : Mark duplicates as True except for the last occurrence.
- False : Mark all duplicates as True.
df[df['ID'].duplicated() == True]
This worked for me
