python - Trying to understand how pandas merge works, right join specifically -


i ran confusing result larger dataframe, have made toy 1 captures of what's confusing me:

import pandas pd big_index = [123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130] big_dat = {'year': pd.series([2000, 2000, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2002, 2002, 2004], index=big_index),       'other': pd.series(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h'], index=big_index)} big_df = pd.dataframe(big_dat)  year_index = [2003, 2000, 2001, 2002] year_dat = {'a': pd.series([1, 2, 3, 4], index=year_index),         'b': pd.series([5, 6, 7, 8], index=year_index)} year_df = pd.dataframe(year_dat)

left, , inner merge work i'd expect, right , outer produce odd results:

merged_right = pd.merge(     big_df,     year_df,     how='right',     left_on='year',     right_index=true     ) merged_right     other  year   b 123      2000  2  6 124     b  2000  2  6 125     c  2000  2  6 126     d  2001  3  7 127     e  2002  4  8 128     f  2002  4  8 129     g  2002  4  8 130   nan  2003  1  5  merged_outer = pd.merge(     big_df,     year_df,     how='outer',     left_on='year',     right_index=true     ) merged_outer     other  year       b 123      2000  2.0  6.0 124     b  2000  2.0  6.0 125     c  2000  2.0  6.0 126     d  2001  3.0  7.0 127     e  2002  4.0  8.0 128     f  2002  4.0  8.0 129     g  2002  4.0  8.0 130     h  2004  nan  nan 130   nan  2003  1.0  5.0

in both cases index 130 gets associated 2003 year entry, no apparent reason. there's no "good" way handle since i'm assuming index can't have nan in it. i'd have expected throw error though, rather returning incorrect last column. i'm misunderstanding pandas doing under hood. tips resources figure out why going wrong appreciated code showing how right.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m
