Fuzzy Comparison Utilities for DataFrame Columns

Fuzzy Comparison Utilities for DataFrame Columns

pip install fuzzypandaswuzzy

Tested against Windows 10 / Python 3.10 / Anaconda

This module provides a function to perform fuzzy comparison between two columns of a DataFrame using the RapidFuzz library.
It also extends the DataFrame class to add a method for fuzzy comparison between two columns.

Module dependencies:
	- pandas (pd)
	- numpy (np)
	- RapidFuzz (from rapidfuzz import process, fuzz)

Usage:
	import pandas as pd
	from rapidfuzz import fuzz
	from fuzzypandaswuzzy import pd_add_fuzzy_all
	pd_add_fuzzy_all()

	df = pd.read_csv(r"arcore_devicelist.csv")
	df2 = df.d_fuzzy2cols(scorer=fuzz.QRatio) # compares the first 2 columns

Note:
	The 'scorer' parameter in the fuzzy_compare function and d_fuzzy2cols method accepts a scoring function from the RapidFuzz library
	(e.g., fuzz.WRatio, fuzz.QRatio, etc.). If no scorer is specified, the default scorer used is fuzz.QRatio.
