Subset does not contain certain string

New to Julia

I am trying to subset a dataframe by filtering out rows which contain “/”.

I have:

@subset(gdf, contains.(:country, "/"))

Which works for highlighting all the of the rows with “/” but adding ! or /isnot didn’t seem to work. I tried another way with:

filter(:country => !=("/"), gdf)

but this didn’t work either.

Is there a way to exclude using contains? or is there a different way?

julia> using DataFrames

julia> @subset
ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: @subset not defined
in expression starting at REPL[6]:1

so where is @subset from, i.e. what are you using ?

This will work though:

filter(row->!occursin("/", row.country), gdf)

You are having trouble with the broadcasted ! I think.

  1. You could use @rsubset for row-wise operations
julia> @rsubset df !contains(:country, "/")
1×1 DataFrame
 Row │ country 
     │ String  
─────┼─────────
   1 │ a
  1. You could use broadcasted ! 
julia> @subset df .!contains.(:country, "/")
1×1 DataFrame
 Row │ country
