Select DataFrame rows between two dates
Question:
I am creating a DataFrame from a csv as follows:
stock = pd.read_csv('data_in/' + filename + '.csv', skipinitialspace=True)
The DataFrame has a date column. Is there a way to create a new DataFrame (or just overwrite the existing one) which only contains rows with date values that fall within a specified date range or between two specified date values?
Answers:
There are two possible solutions:
- Use a boolean mask, then use
df.loc[mask]
- Set the date column as a DatetimeIndex, then use
df[start_date : end_date]
Using a boolean mask:
Ensure df['date']
is a Series with dtype datetime64[ns]
:
df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['date'])
Make a boolean mask. start_date
and end_date
can be datetime.datetime
s,
np.datetime64
s, pd.Timestamp
s, or even datetime strings:
#greater than the start date and smaller than the end date
mask = (df['date'] > start_date) & (df['date'] <= end_date)
Select the sub-DataFrame:
df.loc[mask]
or re-assign to df
df = df.loc[mask]
For example,
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((200,3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2000-1-1', periods=200, freq='D')
mask = (df['date'] > '2000-6-1') & (df['date'] <= '2000-6-10')
print(df.loc[mask])
yields
0 1 2 date
153 0.208875 0.727656 0.037787 2000-06-02
154 0.750800 0.776498 0.237716 2000-06-03

Using a DatetimeIndex:
If you are going to do a lot of selections by date, it may be quicker to set the
date
column as the index first. Then you can select rows by date using
df.loc[start_date:end_date]
.
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((200,3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2000-1-1', periods=200, freq='D')
df = df.set_index(['date'])
print(df.loc['2000-6-1':'2000-6-10'])
yields
0 1 2
date
2000-06-01 0.040457 0.326594 0.492136 # <- includes start_date
2000-06-02 0.279323 0.877446 0.464523
2000-06-03 0.328068 0.837669 0.608559
2000-06-04 0.107959 0.678297 0.517435
2000-06-05 0.131555 0.418380 0.025725
2000-06-06 0.999961 0.619517 0.206108
2000-06-07 0.129270 0.024533 0.154769
2000-06-08 0.441010 0.741781 0.470402
2000-06-09 0.682101 0.375660 0.009916
2000-06-10 0.754488 0.352293 0.339337
While Python list indexing, e.g. seq[start:end]
includes start
but not end
, in contrast, Pandas df.loc[start_date : end_date]
includes both end-points in the result if they are in the index. Neither start_date
nor end_date
has to be in the index however.
Also note that pd.read_csv
has a parse_dates
parameter which you could use to parse the date
column as datetime64
s. Thus, if you use parse_dates
, you would not need to use df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['date'])
.
I feel the best option will be to use the direct checks rather than using loc function:
df = df[(df['date'] > '2000-6-1') & (df['date'] <= '2000-6-10')]
It works for me.
Major issue with loc function with a slice is that the limits should be present in the actual values, if not this will result in KeyError.
You can use the isin
method on the date
column like so
df[df["date"].isin(pd.date_range(start_date, end_date))]
Note: This only works with dates (as the question asks) and not timestamps.
Example:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
# Make a DataFrame with dates and random numbers
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((30, 3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2017-1-1', periods=30, freq='D')
# Select the rows between two dates
in_range_df = df[df["date"].isin(pd.date_range("2017-01-15", "2017-01-20"))]
print(in_range_df) # print result
which gives
0 1 2 date
14 0.960974 0.144271 0.839593 2017-01-15
15 0.814376 0.723757 0.047840 2017-01-16
16 0.911854 0.123130 0.120995 2017-01-17
17 0.505804 0.416935 0.928514 2017-01-18
18 0.204869 0.708258 0.170792 2017-01-19
19 0.014389 0.214510 0.045201 2017-01-20
Keeping the solution simple and pythonic, I would suggest you to try this.
In case if you are going to do this frequently the best solution would be to first set the date column as index which will convert the column in DateTimeIndex and use the following condition to slice any range of dates.
import pandas as pd
data_frame = data_frame.set_index('date')
df = data_frame[(data_frame.index > '2017-08-10') & (data_frame.index <= '2017-08-15')]
I prefer not to alter the df
.
An option is to retrieve the index
of the start
and end
dates:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
#Dummy DataFrame
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((30, 3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2017-1-1', periods=30, freq='D')
#Get the index of the start and end dates respectively
start = df[df['date']=='2017-01-07'].index[0]
end = df[df['date']=='2017-01-14'].index[0]
#Show the sliced df (from 2017-01-07 to 2017-01-14)
df.loc[start:end]
which results in:
0 1 2 date
6 0.5 0.8 0.8 2017-01-07
7 0.0 0.7 0.3 2017-01-08
8 0.8 0.9 0.0 2017-01-09
9 0.0 0.2 1.0 2017-01-10
10 0.6 0.1 0.9 2017-01-11
11 0.5 0.3 0.9 2017-01-12
12 0.5 0.4 0.3 2017-01-13
13 0.4 0.9 0.9 2017-01-14
You can also use between
:
df[df.some_date.between(start_date, end_date)]
pandas
0.22 has a between()
function.
Makes answering this question easier and more readable code.
# create a single column DataFrame with dates going from Jan 1st 2018 to Jan 1st 2019
df = pd.DataFrame({'dates':pd.date_range('2018-01-01','2019-01-01')})
Let’s say you want to grab the dates between Nov 27th 2018 and Jan 15th 2019:
# use the between statement to get a boolean mask
df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=False)
0 False
1 False
2 False
3 False
4 False
# you can pass this boolean mask straight to loc
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=False)]
dates
331 2018-11-28
332 2018-11-29
333 2018-11-30
334 2018-12-01
335 2018-12-02
Notice the inclusive
argument. very helpful when you want to be explicit about your range. notice when set to True we return Nov 27th of 2018 as well:
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=True)]
dates
330 2018-11-27
331 2018-11-28
332 2018-11-29
333 2018-11-30
334 2018-12-01
This method is also faster than the previously mentioned isin
method:
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=True)]
868 µs ± 164 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[df['dates'].isin(pd.date_range('2018-01-01','2019-01-01'))]
1.53 ms ± 305 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
However, it is not faster than the currently accepted answer, provided by unutbu, only if the mask is already created. but if the mask is dynamic and needs to be reassigned over and over, my method may be more efficient:
# already create the mask THEN time the function
start_date = dt.datetime(2018,11,27)
end_date = dt.datetime(2019,1,15)
mask = (df['dates'] > start_date) & (df['dates'] <= end_date)
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[mask]
191 µs ± 28.5 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
Another option, how to achieve this, is by using pandas.DataFrame.query()
method. Let me show you an example on the following data frame called df
.
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((5, 1)), columns=['col_1'])
>>> df['date'] = pd.date_range('2020-1-1', periods=5, freq='D')
>>> print(df)
col_1 date
0 0.015198 2020-01-01
1 0.638600 2020-01-02
2 0.348485 2020-01-03
3 0.247583 2020-01-04
4 0.581835 2020-01-05
As an argument, use the condition for filtering like this:
>>> start_date, end_date = '2020-01-02', '2020-01-04'
>>> print(df.query('date >= @start_date and date <= @end_date'))
col_1 date
1 0.244104 2020-01-02
2 0.374775 2020-01-03
3 0.510053 2020-01-04
If you do not want to include boundaries, just change the condition like following:
>>> print(df.query('date > @start_date and date < @end_date'))
col_1 date
2 0.374775 2020-01-03
you can do it with pd.date_range() and Timestamp.
Let’s say you have read a csv file with a date column using parse_dates option:
df = pd.read_csv('my_file.csv', parse_dates=['my_date_col'])
Then you can define a date range index :
rge = pd.date_range(end='15/6/2020', periods=2)
and then filter your values by date thanks to a map:
df.loc[df['my_date_col'].map(lambda row: row.date() in rge)]
Inspired by unutbu
print(df.dtypes) #Make sure the format is 'object'. Rerunning this after index will not show values.
columnName = 'YourColumnName'
df[columnName+'index'] = df[columnName] #Create a new column for index
df.set_index(columnName+'index', inplace=True) #To build index on the timestamp/dates
df.loc['2020-09-03 01:00':'2020-09-06'] #Select range from the index. This is your new Dataframe.
You can use the method truncate:
dates = pd.date_range('2016-01-01', '2016-01-06', freq='d')
df = pd.DataFrame(index=dates, data={'A': 1})
A
2016-01-01 1
2016-01-02 1
2016-01-03 1
2016-01-04 1
2016-01-05 1
2016-01-06 1
Select data between two dates:
df.truncate(before=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-02'),
after=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-4'))
Output:
A
2016-01-02 1
2016-01-03 1
2016-01-04 1
It is highly recommended to convert a date column to an index. Doing that will give a lot of facilities. One is to select the rows between two dates easily, you can see this example:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
# Dataframe with monthly data between 2016 - 2020
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((60, 3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2016-1-1', periods=60, freq='M')
To select the rows between 2017-01-01
and 2019-01-01
, you need only to convert the date
column to an index
:
df.set_index('date', inplace=True)
and then only slicing:
df.loc['2017':'2019']
You can select the date column as index while reading the csv file directly instead of the df.set_index()
:
df = pd.read_csv('file_name.csv',index_col='date')
import pandas as pd
technologies = ({
'Courses':["Spark","PySpark","Hadoop","Python","Pandas","Hadoop","Spark"],
'Fee' :[22000,25000,23000,24000,26000,25000,25000],
'Duration':['30days','50days','55days','40days','60days','35days','55days'],
'Discount':[1000,2300,1000,1200,2500,1300,1400],

})
df = pd.DataFrame(technologies)
print(df)
Using pandas.DataFrame.loc to Filter Rows by Dates
Method 1:
mask = (df['InsertedDates'] > start_date) & (df['InsertedDates'] <= end_date)
df2 = df.loc[mask]
print(df2)
Method 2:
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-19'
after_start_date = df["InsertedDates"] >= start_date
before_end_date = df["InsertedDates"] <= end_date
between_two_dates = after_start_date & before_end_date
df2 = df.loc[between_two_dates]
print(df2)
Using pandas.DataFrame.query() to select DataFrame Rows
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-18'
df2 = df.query('InsertedDates >= @start_date and InsertedDates <= @end_date')
print(df2)
Select rows between two dates using DataFrame.query()
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-18'
df2 = df.query('InsertedDates > @start_date and InsertedDates < @end_date')
print(df2)
pandas.Series.between() function Using two dates
df2 = df.loc[df["InsertedDates"].between("2021-11-16", "2021-11-18")]
print(df2)
Select DataFrame rows between two dates using DataFrame.isin()
df2 = df[df["InsertedDates"].isin(pd.date_range("2021-11-15", "2021-11-17"))]
print(df2)

You can also use between
:
df[df.some_date.between(start_date, end_date)]
pandas
0.22 has a between()
function.
Makes answering this question easier and more readable code.
# create a single column DataFrame with dates going from Jan 1st 2018 to Jan 1st 2019
df = pd.DataFrame({'dates':pd.date_range('2018-01-01','2019-01-01')})
Let’s say you want to grab the dates between Nov 27th 2018 and Jan 15th 2019:
# use the between statement to get a boolean mask
df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=False)
0 False
1 False
2 False
3 False
4 False
# you can pass this boolean mask straight to loc
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=False)]
dates
331 2018-11-28
332 2018-11-29
333 2018-11-30
334 2018-12-01
335 2018-12-02
Notice the inclusive
argument. very helpful when you want to be explicit about your range. notice when set to True we return Nov 27th of 2018 as well:
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=True)]
dates
330 2018-11-27
331 2018-11-28
332 2018-11-29
333 2018-11-30
334 2018-12-01
This method is also faster than the previously mentioned isin
method:
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[df['dates'].between('2018-11-27','2019-01-15', inclusive=True)]
868 µs ± 164 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[df['dates'].isin(pd.date_range('2018-01-01','2019-01-01'))]
1.53 ms ± 305 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
However, it is not faster than the currently accepted answer, provided by unutbu, only if the mask is already created. but if the mask is dynamic and needs to be reassigned over and over, my method may be more efficient:
# already create the mask THEN time the function
start_date = dt.datetime(2018,11,27)
end_date = dt.datetime(2019,1,15)
mask = (df['dates'] > start_date) & (df['dates'] <= end_date)
%%timeit -n 5
df.loc[mask]
191 µs ± 28.5 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 5 loops each)
Another option, how to achieve this, is by using pandas.DataFrame.query()
method. Let me show you an example on the following data frame called df
.
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((5, 1)), columns=['col_1'])
>>> df['date'] = pd.date_range('2020-1-1', periods=5, freq='D')
>>> print(df)
col_1 date
0 0.015198 2020-01-01
1 0.638600 2020-01-02
2 0.348485 2020-01-03
3 0.247583 2020-01-04
4 0.581835 2020-01-05
As an argument, use the condition for filtering like this:
>>> start_date, end_date = '2020-01-02', '2020-01-04'
>>> print(df.query('date >= @start_date and date <= @end_date'))
col_1 date
1 0.244104 2020-01-02
2 0.374775 2020-01-03
3 0.510053 2020-01-04
If you do not want to include boundaries, just change the condition like following:
>>> print(df.query('date > @start_date and date < @end_date'))
col_1 date
2 0.374775 2020-01-03
you can do it with pd.date_range() and Timestamp.
Let’s say you have read a csv file with a date column using parse_dates option:
df = pd.read_csv('my_file.csv', parse_dates=['my_date_col'])
Then you can define a date range index :
rge = pd.date_range(end='15/6/2020', periods=2)
and then filter your values by date thanks to a map:
df.loc[df['my_date_col'].map(lambda row: row.date() in rge)]
Inspired by unutbu
print(df.dtypes) #Make sure the format is 'object'. Rerunning this after index will not show values.
columnName = 'YourColumnName'
df[columnName+'index'] = df[columnName] #Create a new column for index
df.set_index(columnName+'index', inplace=True) #To build index on the timestamp/dates
df.loc['2020-09-03 01:00':'2020-09-06'] #Select range from the index. This is your new Dataframe.
You can use the method truncate:
dates = pd.date_range('2016-01-01', '2016-01-06', freq='d')
df = pd.DataFrame(index=dates, data={'A': 1})
A
2016-01-01 1
2016-01-02 1
2016-01-03 1
2016-01-04 1
2016-01-05 1
2016-01-06 1
Select data between two dates:
df.truncate(before=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-02'),
after=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-4'))
Output:
A
2016-01-02 1
2016-01-03 1
2016-01-04 1
It is highly recommended to convert a date column to an index. Doing that will give a lot of facilities. One is to select the rows between two dates easily, you can see this example:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
# Dataframe with monthly data between 2016 - 2020
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((60, 3)))
df['date'] = pd.date_range('2016-1-1', periods=60, freq='M')
To select the rows between 2017-01-01
and 2019-01-01
, you need only to convert the date
column to an index
:
df.set_index('date', inplace=True)
and then only slicing:
df.loc['2017':'2019']
You can select the date column as index while reading the csv file directly instead of the df.set_index()
:
df = pd.read_csv('file_name.csv',index_col='date')
import pandas as pd
technologies = ({
'Courses':["Spark","PySpark","Hadoop","Python","Pandas","Hadoop","Spark"],
'Fee' :[22000,25000,23000,24000,26000,25000,25000],
'Duration':['30days','50days','55days','40days','60days','35days','55days'],
'Discount':[1000,2300,1000,1200,2500,1300,1400],
'InsertedDates':["2021-11-14","2021-11-15","2021-11-16","2021-11-17","2021-11-18","2021-11-19","2021-11-20"]
})
df = pd.DataFrame(technologies)
print(df)
Using pandas.DataFrame.loc to Filter Rows by Dates
Method 1:
mask = (df['InsertedDates'] > start_date) & (df['InsertedDates'] <= end_date)
df2 = df.loc[mask]
print(df2)
Method 2:
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-19'
after_start_date = df["InsertedDates"] >= start_date
before_end_date = df["InsertedDates"] <= end_date
between_two_dates = after_start_date & before_end_date
df2 = df.loc[between_two_dates]
print(df2)
Using pandas.DataFrame.query() to select DataFrame Rows
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-18'
df2 = df.query('InsertedDates >= @start_date and InsertedDates <= @end_date')
print(df2)
Select rows between two dates using DataFrame.query()
start_date = '2021-11-15'
end_date = '2021-11-18'
df2 = df.query('InsertedDates > @start_date and InsertedDates < @end_date')
print(df2)
pandas.Series.between() function Using two dates
df2 = df.loc[df["InsertedDates"].between("2021-11-16", "2021-11-18")]
print(df2)
Select DataFrame rows between two dates using DataFrame.isin()
df2 = df[df["InsertedDates"].isin(pd.date_range("2021-11-15", "2021-11-17"))]
print(df2)
