I have a pandas dataframe sorted by a number of columns. Now I'd like to split the dataframe in predefined percentages, so as to extract and name a few segments.
For example, I want to take the first 20% of rows to create the first segment, then the next 30% for the second segment and leave the remaining 50% to the third segment.
How would I achieve that?

Using the iloc() function to split DataFrame in Python We can use the iloc() function to slice DataFrames into smaller DataFrames. The iloc() function allows us to access elements based on the index of rows and columns. Using this function, we can split a DataFrame based on rows or columns.
You can caluclate pandas percentage with total by groupby() and DataFrame. transform() method. The transform() method allows you to execute a function for each value of the DataFrame. Here, the percentage directly summarized DataFrame, then the results will be calculated using all the data.
Step 1: split the data into groups by creating a groupby object from the original DataFrame; Step 2: apply a function, in this case, an aggregation function that computes a summary statistic (you can also transform or filter your data in this step); Step 3: combine the results into a new DataFrame.
Method 1: By Boolean Indexing We can create multiple dataframes from a given dataframe based on a certain column value by using the boolean indexing method and by mentioning the required criteria.
Use numpy.split:
a, b, c = np.split(df, [int(.2*len(df)), int(.5*len(df))])
Sample:
np.random.seed(100)
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((20,5)), columns=list('ABCDE'))
#print (df)
a, b, c = np.split(df, [int(.2*len(df)), int(.5*len(df))])
print (a)
