Pandas random sample with remove

Question

I\'m aware of DataFrame.sample(), but how can I do this and also remove the sample from the dataset? (Note: AFAIK this has nothing to do with sampling with repl

Answer 1

If your index is unique

df = df.drop(df_subset.index)

---

example

df = pd.DataFrame(np.arange(10).reshape(-1, 2))

---

sample

df_subset = df.sample(2)
df_subset

---

drop

df.drop(df_subset.index)
