How to groupby multiple columns in pandas based on name?

I want to create a new dataframe with columns calculated as means of columns with similar names from this dataframe:
B6_i B6_ii B6_iii ... BXD80_i BXD80_ii BXD81_i
data ...
Cd38 0.598864 -0.225322 0.306926 ... -0.312190 0.281429 0.424752
Trim21 1.947399 2.920681 2.805861 ... 1.469634 2.103585 0.827487
Kpnb1 -0.458240 -0.417507 -0.441522 ... -0.314313 -0.153509 -0.095863
Six1 1.055255 0.868148 1.012298 ... 0.142565 0.264753 0.807692
The new dataframe should look like this:
B6 BXD80 ... BXD81
data
Cd38 -0.041416 -0.087859 ... 0.424752
Trim21 15.958981 3.091500 ... 0.827487
Kpnb1 -0.084471 0.048250 ... -0.095863
Six1 0.927383 0.037745 ... 0.807692
(like (B6_i + B6_ii + B6_iii)/3), based on all characters until the underscore "_")
Some columns are one of n columns, and others are singular (like 'BXD81_i'), so I need a method that can work with a varying number for each mean calculation.

You can aggregate mean per columns by values before _:
df.columns = df.columns.str.split('_', expand=True)
df1 = df.groupby(level=0, axis=1).mean()
Or:
df1 = df.groupby(lambda x: x.split('_')[0], axis=1).mean()
print (df1)
B6 BXD80 BXD81
data
Cd38 0.226823 -0.015381 0.424752
Trim21 2.557980 1.786609 0.827487
Kpnb1 -0.439090 -0.233911 -0.095863
Six1 0.978567 0.203659 0.807692

pandas rename multi-level column having the same name

When I use aggregate function, the resulting columns 'price' and 'carat' have the same column name of 'mean'.
How do i rename the mean under the price to price_mean and under carat to carat_mean.
I can't change them individually.
diamonds.groupby('cut').agg({
'price': ['count', 'mean'],
'carat': 'mean'
}).rename(columns={'mean':'price_mean','mean':'carat_mean'}, level = 1)
})

You could try this:
# Rename columns of level 1
df1 = df["price"]
df1.columns = ["count", "carat_mean"]
df2 = df["carat"]
df2.columns = ["carat_mean"]
# Aggregate dfs (with renamed columns) under level 0 columns
df = pd.concat([df1, df2], axis=1, keys=['price', 'carat'])
print(df)
# Outputs
price carat
count carat_mean carat_mean
Fair 0.693995 -0.632283 0.789963
Good 0.099057 1.005623 0.143289
Ideal -0.277984 -0.105138 -0.611168

Pyspark dataframe join based on key,group by and max

i have two parquet files, which i load with spark.read. These 2 dataframes have a same column named key, so i join them with:
df = df.join(df2, on=['key'], how='inner')
df columns are: ["key","Duration","Distance"] and df2 : ["key",department id"]. At the end i want to print Duration, max(Distance),department id group by department id. What i have done so far is:
df.join(df.groupBy('departmentid').agg(F.max('Distance').alias('Distance')),on='Distance',how='leftsemi').show()
but i think it is too slow, is there a faster way to achieve my goal?
thanks in advance
EDIT: sample (first 2 lines of each file)
df:
369367789289,2015-03-27 18:29:39,2015-03-27 19:08:28,-
73.975051879882813,40.760562896728516,-
73.847900390625,40.732685089111328,34.8
369367789290,2015-03-27 18:29:40,2015-03-27 18:38:35,-
73.988876342773438,40.77423095703125,-
73.985160827636719,40.763439178466797,11.16
df1:
369367789289,1
369367789290,2
each columns is seperated by "," first column on both files is my key, then i have timestamps,longtitudes and latitudes. At the second file i have only the key and department id.
to create Distance i am using a function called formater. this is how i get my distance and duration:
df = df.filter("_c3!=0 and _c4!=0 and _c5!=0 and _c6!=0")
df = df.withColumn("_c0", df["_c0"].cast(LongType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c1", df["_c1"].cast(TimestampType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c2", df["_c2"].cast(TimestampType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c3", df["_c3"].cast(DoubleType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c4", df["_c4"].cast(DoubleType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c5", df["_c5"].cast(DoubleType()))
df = df.withColumn("_c6", df["_c6"].cast(DoubleType()))
df = df.withColumn('Distance', formater(df._c3,df._c5,df._c4,df._c6))
df = df.withColumn('Duration', F.unix_timestamp(df._c2) -F.unix_timestamp(df._c1))
and then as i showed above:
df = df.join(vendors, on=['key'], how='inner')
df.registerTempTable("taxi")
df.join(df.groupBy('vendor').agg(F.max('Distance').alias('Distance')),on='Distance',how='leftsemi').show()
Output must be
Distance Duration department id
grouped by id, and geting only the row with max(distance)

How to split a column into many columns where the name of this columns change

I defined a data frame into a "function" where the name of each column in the dataframes changes continuously so I can't specify the name of this column and then split it to many columns. For example, I can't say df ['name'] and then split it into many columns. The number of columns and rows of this dataframes is not constant. I need to split any column contains more than one item to many components (columns).
For example:
This is one of the dataframes which I have:
name/one name/three
(192.26949,) (435.54,436.65,87.3,5432)
(189.4033245,) (45.51,56.612, 54253.543, 54.321)
(184.4593252,) (45.58,56.6412,654.876,765.66543)
I want to convert it to:
name/one name/three1 name/three2 name/three3 name/three4
192.26949 435.54 436.65 87.3 5432
189.4033245 45.51 56.612 54253.543 54.321
184.4593252 45.58 56.6412 654.876 765.66543

Solution if all data are tuples in all rows and all columns use concat with DataFrame constructor and DataFrame.add_prefix:
df = pd.concat([pd.DataFrame(df[c].tolist()).add_prefix(c) for c in df.columns], axis=1)
print (df)
name/one0 name/three0 name/three1 name/three2 name/three3
0 192.269490 435.54 436.6500 87.300 5432.00000
1 189.403324 45.51 56.6120 54253.543 54.32100
2 184.459325 45.58 56.6412 654.876 765.66543
If possible string repr of tuples:
import ast
L = [pd.DataFrame([ast.literal_eval(y) for y in df[c]]).add_prefix(c) for c in df.columns]
df = pd.concat(L, axis=1)
print (df)
name/one0 name/three0 name/three1 name/three2 name/three3
0 192.269490 435.54 436.6500 87.300 5432.00000
1 189.403324 45.51 56.6120 54253.543 54.32100
2 184.459325 45.58 56.6412 654.876 765.66543

Diff between two dataframes in pandas

I have two dataframes both of which have the same basic schema. (4 date fields, a couple of string fields, and 4-5 float fields). Call them df1 and df2.
What I want to do is basically get a "diff" of the two - where I get back all rows that are not shared between the two dataframes (not in the set intersection). Note, the two dataframes need not be the same length.
I tried using pandas.merge(how='outer') but I was not sure what column to pass in as the 'key' as there really isn't one and the various combinations I tried were not working. It is possible that df1 or df2 has two (or more) rows that are identical.
What is a good way to do this in pandas/Python?

Try this:
diff_df = pd.merge(df1, df2, how='outer', indicator='Exist')
diff_df = diff_df.loc[diff_df['Exist'] != 'both']
You will have a dataframe of all rows that don't exist on both df1 and df2.

IIUC:
You can use pd.Index.symmetric_difference
pd.concat([df1, df2]).loc[
df1.index.symmetric_difference(df2.index)
]

You can use this function, the output is an ordered dict of 6 dataframes which you can write to excel for further analysis.
'df1' and 'df2' refers to your input dataframes.
'uid' refers to the column or combination of columns that make up the unique key. (i.e. 'Fruits')
'dedupe' (default=True) drops duplicates in df1 and df2. (refer to Step 4 in comments)
'labels' (default = ('df1','df2')) allows you to name the input dataframes. If a unique key exists in both dataframes, but have
different values in one or more columns, it is usually important to know these rows, put them one on top of the other and label the row with the name so we know to which dataframe does it belong to.
'drop' can take a list of columns to be excluded from the consideration when considering the difference
Here goes:
df1 = pd.DataFrame([['apple', '1'], ['banana', 2], ['coconut',3]], columns=['Fruits','Quantity'])
df2 = pd.DataFrame([['apple', '1'], ['banana', 3], ['durian',4]], columns=['Fruits','Quantity'])
dict1 = diff_func(df1, df2, 'Fruits')
In [10]: dict1['df1_only']:
Out[10]:
Fruits Quantity
1 coconut 3
In [11]: dict1['df2_only']:
Out[11]:
Fruits Quantity
3 durian 4
In [12]: dict1['Diff']:
Out[12]:
Fruits Quantity df1 or df2
0 banana 2 df1
1 banana 3 df2
In [13]: dict1['Merge']:
Out[13]:
Fruits Quantity
0 apple 1
Here is the code:
import pandas as pd

return dict_result

Set df2.columns = df1.columns
Now, set every column as the index: df1 = df1.set_index(df1.columns.tolist()), and similarly for df2.
You can now do df1.index.difference(df2.index), and df2.index.difference(df1.index), and the two results are your distinct columns.

with
left_df.merge(df,left_on=left_df.columns.tolist(),right_on=df.columns.tolist(),how='outer')
you can get the outer join result.
Similarly, you can get the inner join result.Then make a diff that would be what you want.
