Re: Combining Multiple Regex in Pandas Dataframe












0















I have a dataset that looks like this:



0         03/25/93 Total time of visit (in minutes):n
1 6/18/85 Primary Care Doctor:n
2 sshe plans to move as of 7/8/71 In-Home Servic...


and comprises of dates in different formats such as:



04/20/2009; 04/20/09; 4/20/09; 4/3/09
Mar-20-2009; Mar 20, 2009; March 20, 2009; Mar. 20, 2009; Mar 20 2009;
20 Mar 2009; 20 March 2009; 20 Mar. 2009; 20 March, 2009
Mar 20th, 2009; Mar 21st, 2009; Mar 22nd, 2009


I need to extract the dates and sort them in ascending order, keeping the following rules:




  • Assume dates in MM/DD/YY

  • Assume dates with the year encoded in two digits


I have to return Pandas Series with correct date in chronological order:



For example, if the series was like this:



0    1999
1 2010
2 1978


I need to return the following series:



0    2
1 4
2 0


where the first column is the index and second is the count(years) appearing in dataset. For instance, if the year 1999 appeared twice it will return two(2) in the second column.



I have been able to extract and match the date patterns, however I am unable to combine them into single expression to match the entire dataframe:



re1 = df.str.extract(r'((?:d{,2}s)?(?:Jan|Feb|Mar|Apr|May|Jun|Jul|Aug|Sep|Oct|Nov|Dec)[a-z]*(?:-|.|s|,)s?d{,2}[a-z]*(?:-|,|s)?s?d{2,4})')
re2 = df.str.extract(r'((?:d{1,2})(?:(?:/|-)d{1,2})(?:(?:/|-)d{2,4}))')
re3 = df.str.extract(r'((?:d{1,2}(?:-|/))?d{4})')


How can I combine the above regular expressions into single expression and return it as Series?

  • The first part of the question doesn't seem to match with the second half. Are you just after value_counts() ?

You may use



((?:d{0,2}s)?(?:Jan|Feb|Mar|Apr|May|Jun|Jul|Aug|Sep|Oct|Nov|Dec)[a-z]*[-.s,]s?d{0,2}[a-z]*[-,s]?s?d{2,4}|d{1,2}[/-]d{1,2}[/-]d{2,4}|(?:d{1,2}[-/])?d{4})


See the regex demo



The point is to join the parts using | operator while keeping all inner groups non-capturing. The outer group must be capturing so that extract could output the match.
