python - How to check if a value is in the list in selection from pandas data frame?

Question

Looks ugly:

df_cut = df_new[
             (
             (df_new['l_ext']==31) |
             (df_new['l_ext']==22) |
             (df_new['l_ext']==30) |
             (df_new['l_ext']==25) |
             (df_new['l_ext']==64)
             )
            ]

Does not work:

df_cut = df_new[(df_new['l_ext'] in [31, 22, 30, 25, 64])]

Is there an elegant and working solution of the above "problem"?

Answer 1

Use isin

df_new[df_new['l_ext'].isin([31, 22, 30, 25, 64])]
