pandas filling nans by mean of before and after non-nan values
I would like to fill df
's nan
with an average of adjacent elements.
Consider a dataframe:
df = pd.DataFrame({'val': [1,np.nan, 4, 5, np.nan, 10, 1,2,5, np.nan, np.nan, 9]})
val
0 1.0
1 NaN
2 4.0
3 5.0
4 NaN
5 10.0
6 1.0
7 2.0
8 5.0
9 NaN
10 NaN
11 9.0
My desired output is:
val
0 1.0
1 2.5
2 4.0
3 5.0
4 7.5
5 10.0
6 1.0
7 2.0
8 5.0
9 7.0 <<< deadend
10 7.0 <<< deadend
11 9.0
I've looked into other solutions such as Fill cell containing NaN with average of value before and after, but this won't work in case of two or more consecutive np.nan
s.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Use ffill
and bfill
and divide by 2:
df = (df.ffill()+df.bfill())/2
print(df)
val
0 1.0
1 2.5
2 4.0
3 5.0
4 7.5
5 10.0
6 1.0
7 2.0
8 5.0
9 7.0
10 7.0
