Cannot compare types 'ndarray(dtype=int64)' and 'str'

Example of data that I want to replace
enter image description here



Data has following attributes



Buying v-high,high,med,low
Maint v-high,high,med,low
Doors 2,3,4,5-more
persons 2,4-more
lug_boot small,med,big
safety low,med.high



here is what I did



enter code here
#Buying price generalization
df["Buying_Price"]=df["Buying_Price"].replace({"vhigh":4})
df["Buying_Price"]=df["Buying_Price"].replace({"high":3})
df["Buying_Price"]=df["Buying_Price"].replace({"med":2})
df["Buying_Price"]=df["Buying_Price"].replace({"low":1})

#Maintanace generalization
df["Maintanance_price"]=df["Maintanance_price"].replace({"vhigh":4})
df["Maintanance_price"]=df["Maintanance_price"].replace({"high":3})
df["Maintanance_price"]=df["Maintanance_price"].replace({"med":2})
df["Maintanance_price"]=df["Maintanance_price"].replace({"low":1})

#lug_boot generalization
df["Lug_boot"]=df["Lug_boot"].replace({"small":1})
df["Lug_boot"]=df["Lug_boot"].replace({"med":2})
df["Lug_boot"]=df["Lug_boot"].replace({"big":3})

#Safety Generalization
df["Safety"]=df["Safety"].replace({"low":1})
df["Safety"]=df["Safety"].replace({"med":2})
df["Safety"]=df["Safety"].replace({"big":3})

print(df.head())


while printing it showed "Cannot compare types 'ndarray(dtype=int64)' and 'str'"

  • df.head doesn't do any computations on your data. Are you sure your error isn't some other line? Please provide full traceback.

  • Echo jpp's comment. Also you can considerably tidy your code by doing your replaces all at once using a dictionary: replace_all_these = {'low' : 1, 'med' : 2, 'high' : 3, 'vhigh' : 4 }; df['col'] = df['col'].replace(replace_all_these)

Some of you string you passed to replace with an (int)value, actually is an ndarray of int64 values.
You only have int64( here actually ndarray(dtype=int64)) type data in this column.
See document pandas.Dataframe.replace().
replace() try to seek and compare them with the str values you passed.



df["Buying_Price"]=df["Buying_Price"].replace({"vhigh":4})


find all "vhigh" value and compare with the value currently contains, the replace it with 4.
At the comparing it fails as try to compare str data with int64 ('ndarray(dtype=int64)')



A brief example to simulate this:



import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

a = np.array([1])
df = pd.DataFrame({"Maintanance_price": a})
df["Maintanance_price"] = df["Maintanance_price"].replace({"a":1})

print(df)


Out:



TypeError: Cannot compare types 'ndarray(dtype=int64)' and 'str'
