how to join two pandas dataframe on specific column -


i have 1st pandas dataframe looks this

and 2nd dataframe looks this

 item_id meal_type       6       veg       7       veg       8       veg       9    nonveg      10       veg      11       veg      12       veg      13    nonveg      14       veg      15    nonveg      16    nonveg      17       veg      18       veg      19    nonveg      20       veg      21       veg 

i want join 2 data frames on item_id column. final data frame should contain item_type has match item_id.

i doing following in python

pd.merge(segments_data,meal_type,how='left',on='item_id')

but gives me nan values

you have check types dtypes of both columns (names) join on.

if there different, can cast them, because need same dtypes. numeric columns string columns, looks numbers.

if there both same string types, maybe cast both of them int. problem can whitespaces:

segments_data['item_id'] = segments_data['item_id'].astype(int)  meal_type['item_id'] = meal_type['item_id'].astype(int)  pd.merge(segments_data,meal_type,how='left',on='item_id')
