Pandas : Count number of consecutive rows that are greater than current row value but less than the value from other column

Say I have the following sample dataframe (there are about 25k rows in the real dataframe)

df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : [0,3,2,9,1,0,4,7,3,2], 'B': [9,8,3,5,5,5,5,8,0,4]})
df
   A  B
0  0  9
1  3  8
2  2  3
3  9  5
4  1  5
5  0  5
6  4  5
7  7  8
8  3  0
9  2  4

For the column A I need to know how many next and previous rows are greater than current row value but less than value in column B.

So my expected output is :

A   B next count  previous count
0   9     2          0
3   8     0          0
2   3     0          1
9   5     0          0
1   5     0          0
0   5     2          1
4   5     1          0
7   8     0          0
3   0     0          2
2   4     0          0

Explanation :

  • First row is calculated as : since 3 and 2 are greater than 0 but less than corresponding B value 8 and 3
  • Second row is calculated as : since next value 2 is not greater than 3
  • Third row is calculated as : since 9 is greater than 2 but not greater than its corresponding B value

Similarly, previous count is calculated

Note : I know how to solve this problem by looping using list comprehension or using the pandas apply method but still I won't mind a clear and concise apply approach. I was looking for a more pandaic approach.

Here is the apply solution, which I think is inefficient. Also, as people said that there might be no vector solution for the question. So as mentioned, a more efficient apply solution will be accepted for this question.

This is what I have tried.

This function gets the number of previous/next rows that satisfy the condition.

def get_prev_next_count(row):
    next_nrow = df.loc[row['index']+1:,['A', 'B']]
    prev_nrow = df.loc[:row['index']-1,['A', 'B']][::-1]
    if (next_nrow.size == 0):
        return 0, ((prev_nrow.A > row.A) & (prev_nrow.A < prev_nrow.B)).argmin()
    if (prev_nrow.size == 0):
        return ((next_nrow.A > row.A) & (next_nrow.A < next_nrow.B)).argmin(), 0
    return (((next_nrow.A > row.A) & (next_nrow.A < next_nrow.B)).argmin(), ((prev_nrow.A > row.A) & (prev_nrow.A < prev_nrow.B)).argmin())

Generating output :

df[['next count', 'previous count']] = df.reset_index().apply(get_prev_next_count, axis=1, result_type="expand")

Output :

This gives us the expected output

df
   A  B  next count  previous count
0  0  9           2               0
1  3  8           0               0
2  2  3           0               1
3  9  5           0               0
4  1  5           0               0
5  0  5           2               1
6  4  5           1               0
7  7  8           0               0
8  3  0           0               2
9  2  4           0               0

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE".
