Pandas "Locating contacts"

Question

Locating Contacts
You are given a dictionary that contains names and numbers of people.
You need to create a DataFrame from the dictionary and add an index to it, which should be the name values.
Then take a name from user input and output the row in the DataFrame, which corresponds to that row.
my code below:
import pandas as pd
data = {
'name': ['James', 'Billy', 'Bob', 'Amy', 'Tom'],
'number': ['1234', '5678', '2222', '1111', '0909']
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
# print(df)
name = df.loc[input()]
print(name)
I'm certain I got the last line wrong. Can I get some help on how to handle input in this one?

Answer 1

You didn't set your index in the df:
df=pd.DataFrame(data, index=data['name'])
it should work after that.
Also, I did it slightly different...

Answer 6

import pandas as pd
data = {
'name': ['James', 'Billy', 'Bob', 'Amy', 'Tom'],
'number': ['1234', '5678', '2222', '1111', '0909']
}
dr = pd.DataFrame(data,index=['James', 'Billy', 'Bob', 'Amy', 'Tom'])
print(dr)
a = input()
print(dr.loc[a])
