Equivalent of Paste R to Python

Question

I am a new python afficionado. For R users, there is one function : paste that helps to concatenate two or more variables in a dataframe. It's very useful. For example Suppose that I have this dataframe :

   categorie titre tarifMin  lieu  long   lat   img dateSortie
1      zoo,  Aquar      0.0 Aquar 2.385 48.89 ilo,0           
2      zoo,  Aquar      4.5 Aquar 2.408 48.83 ilo,0           
6      lieu  Jardi      0.0 Jardi 2.320 48.86 ilo,0           
7      lieu  Bois       0.0 Bois  2.455 48.82 ilo,0           
13     espac Canal      0.0 Canal 2.366 48.87 ilo,0           
14     espac Canal     -1.0 Canal 2.384 48.89 ilo,0           
15     parc  Le Ma     20.0 Le Ma 2.353 48.87 ilo,0 

I want to create a new column which uses another column in a dataframe and some text. With R, I do :

> y$thecolThatIWant=ifelse(y$tarifMin!=-1,
+                             paste("Evenement permanent  -->",y$categorie,
+                                   y$titre,"C  partir de",y$tarifMin,"€uros"),
+                             paste("Evenement permanent  -->",y$categorie,
+                                   y$titre,"sans prix indique"))

And the result is :

> y
   categorie titre tarifMin  lieu  long   lat   img dateSortie
1      zoo,  Aquar      0.0 Aquar 2.385 48.89 ilo,0           
2      zoo,  Aquar      4.5 Aquar 2.408 48.83 ilo,0           
6      lieu  Jardi      0.0 Jardi 2.320 48.86 ilo,0           
7      lieu  Bois       0.0 Bois  2.455 48.82 ilo,0           
13     espac Canal      0.0 Canal 2.366 48.87 ilo,0           
14     espac Canal     -1.0 Canal 2.384 48.89 ilo,0           
15     parc  Le Ma     20.0 Le Ma 2.353 48.87 ilo,0           
                                                thecolThatIWant
1  Evenement permanent  --> zoo,  Aquar C  partir de  0.0 €uros
2  Evenement permanent  --> zoo,  Aquar C  partir de  4.5 €uros
6  Evenement permanent  --> lieu  Jardi C  partir de  0.0 €uros
7  Evenement permanent  --> lieu  Bois  C  partir de  0.0 €uros
13 Evenement permanent  --> espac Canal C  partir de  0.0 €uros
14 Evenement permanent  --> espac Canal C  partir de -1.0 €uros
15 Evenement permanent  --> parc  Le Ma C  partir de 20.0 €uros

My question is : How can I do the same thing in Python Pandas or some other module?

What I've tried so far: Well, I'm a very new user. So sorry for my mistake. I try to replicate the example in Python and we suppose that I get something like this

table=pd.read_csv("y.csv",sep=",")
tt= table.loc[:,['categorie','titre','tarifMin','long','lat','lieu']]
table
ategorie    titre   tarifMin    long    lat     lieu
0   zoo,    Aquar   0.0     2.385   48.89   Aquar
1   zoo,    Aquar   4.5     2.408   48.83   Aquar
2   lieu    Jardi   0.0     2.320   48.86   Jardi
3   lieu    Bois    0.0     2.455   48.82   Bois
4   espac   Canal   0.0     2.366   48.87   Canal
5   espac   Canal   -1.0    2.384   48.89   Canal
6   parc    Le Ma   20.0    2.353   48.87   Le Ma

I tried this basically

sc="Even permanent -->" + " "+ tt.titre+" "+tt.lieu
tt['theColThatIWant'] = sc
tt

And I got this

    categorie   titre   tarifMin    long    lat     lieu    theColThatIWant
0   zoo,    Aquar   0.0     2.385   48.89   Aquar   Even permanent --> Aquar Aquar
1   zoo,    Aquar   4.5     2.408   48.83   Aquar   Even permanent --> Aquar Aquar
2   lieu    Jardi   0.0     2.320   48.86   Jardi   Even permanent --> Jardi Jardi
3   lieu    Bois    0.0     2.455   48.82   Bois    Even permanent --> Bois Bois
4   espac   Canal   0.0     2.366   48.87   Canal   Even permanent --> Canal Canal
5   espac   Canal   -1.0    2.384   48.89   Canal   Even permanent --> Canal Canal
6   parc    Le Ma   20.0    2.353   48.87   Le Ma   Even permanent --> Le Ma Le Ma

Now, I suppose that I have to loop with condition if there is no vectorize like in R?

Answer 1

This very much works like Paste command in R: R code:

 words = c("Here", "I","want","to","concatenate","words","using","pipe","delimeter")
 paste(words,collapse="|")

[1]

"Here|I|want|to|concatenate|words|using|pipe|delimeter"

Python:

words = ["Here", "I","want","to","concatenate","words","using","pipe","delimeter"]
"|".join(words)

Result:

'Here|I|want|to|concatenate|words|using|pipe|delimeter'
