Boolean for unique value in a column

Question

For my dataframe, e.g.

df = pd.DataFrame([1, 3, 7, 1], columns=[\'data\'])

I want to know for each index if the value is unique in the col

Answer 1

By using value_counts + map

df.assign(BOOL=df.data.map(df.data.value_counts()>1))
Out[437]: 
   data   BOOL
0     1   True
1     3  False
2     7  False
3     1   True

By using drop_duplicate

df.assign(BOOL=df.index.isin(df.drop_duplicates('data',keep =False).index))

Out[440]: 
   data   BOOL
0     1  False
1     3   True
2     7   True
3     1  False
