Pandas Getting Upper and Lower Fences For Each Rows

Question

My input dataframe is;

Grp          A          B       C
Men          10         15      20
Women        15         10      25
Baby         5          10      20
Men          3          8       25
Men          7          5       30
Baby         5          2       8
Women        10         6       3

How can i get this upper and lower fences for unique groups?

Desired Output is;

GRP        Upper_A     Lower_A      Upper_B     Lower_B   Upper_C   Lower_C
Men
Women
Baby

Could you please help me about this? PS: Upper and lower values are box and whisker values.

Answer 1

Use GroupBy.agg with Series.quantile, specify new columns names and then flatten MultiIndex by f-strings:

df = df.groupby('Grp').agg([('Upper', lambda x: x.quantile(.75)), 
                            ('Lower',lambda x: x.quantile(.25))])
df.columns = [f"{b}_{a}" for a,b in df.columns]
print (df)
       Upper_A  Lower_A  Upper_B  Lower_B  Upper_C  Lower_C
Grp                                                        
Baby      5.00     5.00      8.0      4.0     17.0     11.0
Men       8.50     5.00     11.5      6.5     27.5     22.5
Women    13.75    11.25      9.0      7.0     19.5      8.5
