Both approaches solve the original data‑processing question effectively.

3. Summary

This article presented a Pandas data‑handling issue and provided two concrete solutions—using pow and a list comprehension—along with the corresponding code snippets to help readers resolve similar problems.

When asking questions in a group, consider sharing a small, anonymized sample of the data, include the exact error screenshot, and provide the code directly (or as a .py file if it exceeds 50 lines).
