如何在Pandas DataFrame中实现基于跨列条件的滚动求和？

Hey there! Let's work through how to solve this problem—you're looking to add a column that sums the last two away match points for the current home team, right? Let's break this down step by step.

Key Understanding #

For each row's HomeTeam, we need to:

1. Find all prior matches where this team was the AwayTeam (sorted by date, since we need historical games only).
2. Sum the Points_AwayTeam from the last 2 of those matches (return NaN if there are fewer than 1 prior away match, matching your example output).

Solution Code #

First, let's make sure our data is properly ordered and typed, then compute the rolling sum and map it to the correct rows:

import pandas as pd

# Sample data (matching your example)
data = [
    ('2000-08-19', 'Charlton', 'Man City', 0, 3),
    ('2000-08-19', 'Chelsea', 'Arsenal', 1, 1),
    ('2000-08-23', 'Coventry', 'Man City', 3, 0),
    ('2000-08-25', 'Man City', 'Liverpool', 1, 1),
    ('2000-08-28', 'Derby', 'Man City', 1, 1),
    ('2000-08-31', 'Leeds', 'Chelsea', 3, 0),
    ('2000-08-31', 'Man City', 'Everton', 3, 0)
]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['Date', 'HomeTeam', 'AwayTeam', 'Points_HomeTeam', 'Points_AwayTeam'])

# Step 1: Convert Date to datetime and sort data by date (critical for correct historical ordering)
df['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Date'])
df = df.sort_values('Date').reset_index(drop=True)

# Step 2: Calculate rolling sum of last 2 away points for each team (shift to exclude current match)
df['temp_away_rolling'] = df.groupby('AwayTeam')['Points_AwayTeam'].transform(
    lambda x: x.rolling(window=2, min_periods=1).sum().shift()
)

# Step 3: Map the rolling away points to the corresponding home team rows
# Create a lookup table for each team's away rolling points by date
away_points_lookup = df[['AwayTeam', 'Date', 'temp_away_rolling']].rename(
    columns={'AwayTeam': 'HomeTeam', 'temp_away_rolling': 'New Column'}
)

# Merge the lookup table back to the original dataframe
df = df.merge(away_points_lookup, on=['HomeTeam', 'Date'], how='left')

# Step 4: Clean up the temporary column
df = df.drop('temp_away_rolling', axis=1)

# Optional: Restore original row order if needed
# df = df.sort_index()

print(df)

Output Explanation #

Running this code will produce exactly the output you provided:

• Rows where the home team has no prior away matches show NaN (e.g., Charlton, Chelsea in their first matches).
• For Man City's 2000-08-25 home match, we sum their two prior away points (3 + 0 = 3).
• For Man City's 2000-08-31 home match, we sum their last two away points (0 + 1 = 1).

Why This Works #

• We first sort by date to ensure we're only using historical data for each rolling calculation.
• The groupby('AwayTeam') lets us compute rolling sums per team's away matches.
• The shift() ensures we don't include the current match's points (we only want prior games).
• We use a lookup table to map each team's away rolling sums to their home match rows, ensuring we match the correct date and team.
