Hi there

https://teamtreehouse.com/library/introduction-to-pandas/exploring-pandas/review-selecting-data

Any idea why my code is not working:

is_puppy = office_dogs.age <= 0
puppies = office_dogs[is_puppy]

mature_dogs = office_dogs[~no_referrals_index.puppies]

Thanks, Gabriel

I tried it out and is_puppy is a Pandas series and would work with the office_dogs data frame.

~is_puppy makes sense to me. However, the quiz accepts ~puppies

So I am also confused.

is_puppy = office_dogs.age <= 0
puppies = office_dogs[is_puppy]

mature_dogs = office_dogs[~is_puppy]

I'm having the same issues but I cannot make the change to what Jeff has posted.

This is frustrating. I'm having the same issues. I get the community help and I use it regularly but after 4 months, this needs to be resolved or answer posted. This is a paid site folks. Someone on the staff please engage

As a moderator, I am not able to change quizzes. But I would urge you to not let this minor error on a quiz stop your progress.

The Pandas library is extremely important to the field of Python data science. I use it nearly every day on my job. Getting to know this library is essential for some programming jobs, and a great tool to have in your "belt" for others.
