Converting string into condition for pandas dataframe

Question

I have a condition for a pandas dataframe written in a string. Something like this:

\"(data[\'Variable1\'] == 1) & (data[\'Variable2\'] == 2)\"

Answer 1

You can use pandas query to filter required rows

your_query_string = "Variable1 == 1 & Variable2 == 2"
data = data.query(your_query_string)
