Just curious on the behavior of 'where' and why you would use it over 'loc'.
If I create a dataframe:
df = pd.DataFrame({'ID':[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10],
'Run Distance':[234,35,77,787,243,5435,775,123,355,123],
'Goals':[12,23,56,7,8,0,4,2,1,34],
'Gender':['m','m','m','f','f','m','f','m','f','m']})
And then apply the 'where' function:
df2 = df.where(df['Goals']>10)
I get the following which filters out the results where Goals > 10, but leaves everything else as NaN:
Gender Goals ID Run Distance
0 m 12.0 1.0 234.0
1 m 23.0 2.0 35.0
2 m 56.0 3.0 77.0
3 NaN NaN NaN NaN
4 NaN NaN NaN NaN
5 NaN NaN NaN NaN
6 NaN NaN NaN NaN
7 NaN NaN NaN NaN
8 NaN NaN NaN NaN
9 m 34.0 10.0 123.0
If however I use the 'loc' function:
df2 = df.loc[df['Goals']>10]
It returns the dataframe subsetted without the NaN values:
Gender Goals ID Run Distance
0 m 12 1 234
1 m 23 2 35
2 m 56 3 77
9 m 34 10 123
So essentially I am curious why you would use 'where' over 'loc/iloc' and why it returns NaN values?

Think of loc as a filter - give me only the parts of the df that conform to a condition.
where originally comes from numpy. It runs over an array and checks if each element fits a condition. So it gives you back the entire array, with a result or NaN. A nice feature of where is that you can also get back something different, e.g. df2 = df.where(df['Goals']>10, other='0'), to replace values that don't meet the condition with 0.
ID Run Distance Goals Gender
0 1 234 12 m
1 2 35 23 m
2 3 77 56 m
3 0 0 0 0
4 0 0 0 0
5 0 0 0 0
6 0 0 0 0
7 0 0 0 0
8 0 0 0 0
9 10 123 34 m
Also, while where is only for conditional filtering, loc is the standard way of selecting in Pandas, along with iloc. loc uses row and column names, while iloc uses their index number. So with loc you could choose to return, say, df.loc[0:1, ['Gender', 'Goals']]:

That is super helpful, thank you. So 'loc' filters, and 'where' is more for where you want to change values that do not fit the condition to something else. Perfect, thank you!

If use loc is possible also filter by rows by condition and columns by name(s):

print (s)

Another syntax is called boolean indexing and is for filter rows - remove rows matched condition.
df2 = df.loc[df['Goals']>10]
#alternative
df2 = df[df['Goals']>10]
print (df2)
ID Run Distance Goals Gender
0 1 234 12 m
1 2 35 23 m
2 3 77 56 m
9 10 123 34 m
If use loc is possible also filter by rows by condition and columns by name(s):
s = df.loc[df['Goals']>10, 'ID']
print (s)
0 1

9 10
Name: ID, dtype: int64
df2 = df.loc[df['Goals']>10, ['ID','Gender']]
print (df2)

If check docs DataFrame.where it replace rows by condition - default by NAN, but is possible specify value:
df2 = df.where(df['Goals']>10)
print (df2)
ID Run Distance Goals Gender
0 1.0 234.0 12.0 m
1 2.0 35.0 23.0 m
2 3.0 77.0 56.0 m
3 NaN NaN NaN NaN
4 NaN NaN NaN NaN
5 NaN NaN NaN NaN
6 NaN NaN NaN NaN
7 NaN NaN NaN NaN
8 NaN NaN NaN NaN
9 10.0 123.0 34.0 m
df2 = df.where(df['Goals']>10, 100)
print (df2)
ID Run Distance Goals Gender
0 1 234 12 m
1 2 35 23 m
2 3 77 56 m
3 100 100 100 100
4 100 100 100 100

locretrieves only the rows that matches the condition.
wherereturns the whole dataframe, replacing the rows that don't match the condition (NaN by default).
