Using | in Pandas? Consider the "isin" method instead

If you're looking to see if a Pandas series contains any of several values, then you might be tempted to use several | operators strung together. It turns out that the "isin" method is not only more readable, but runs much faster, as I show in this video.

Great overview once again , using the OR pipe tends to make the statement pretty messy compared to 'ISIN' good to know it is faster 😀

To be honest, I figured it was faster when I decided to do this video, but was pretty surprised by *how much* faster it is. So yeah, readability and speed? I'm in!
