Answer 1

You can use clip:

>>> df['Column 2'] = df['Column 1'].clip(100, 1000)
>>> df
    Column 1  Column 2
0          1       100
1         10       100
2          5       100
3        100       100
4         50       100
5       1000      1000
6      50000      1000
7       2000      1000
8        100       100
9       1000      1000
10      3000      1000

All values lower than 100 are set to 100; all values greater than 1000 are set to 1000.
