Regular expression working in Pythex.com but not in pandas - regex

Question

I'm having trouble applying a regex function to a column in a python dataframe. It works fine in Pythex online editor.
Here is the head of my dataframe -
ID
Text
1
UMM SURE THE ADDRESS IS IN 25088 KITTAN DRIVE NORTH CAROLINA 28605
2
IT IS ON 26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORIDA 28262
3
COOL 757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK 29875
I've tried the following code to create another column which gives us just the address. but the new column is showing up as empty.
df['Address']=df['Text'].str.findall('[0-9]{2,6}(?:\s+\S+){3,8}\s{1,}\b(?:FLORIDA|NORTH CAROLINA|NEW YORK)\b')
The desired output should look like -
ID
Text
Address
1
UMM SURE THE ADDRESS IS IN 25088 KITTAN DRIVE NORTH CAROLINA 28605
25088 KITTAN DRIVE NORTH CAROLINA
2
IT IS ON 26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORIDA 28262
26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORIDA
3
COOL 757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK 29875
757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

If your text data are examples of this pattern, you can try the following code:
df['Address']=df['Text'].str.findall(r'[0-9]{2,6}(.*?)(?:\d+$)')

Answer 2

You could use a pattern to extract the values that you want from column Text:
\b([0-9]{2,6}\b.*?(?:FLORIDA|NORTH CAROLINA|NEW YORK)) \d
The pattern matches:
\b A word boundary to prevent a partial word match
( Capture group 1
[0-9]{2,6}\b Match 2-6 digits followed by a word boundary
.*?(?:FLORIDA|NORTH CAROLINA|NEW YORK) Match as least as possible chars until you can match one of the alternatives
) \d Close group 1, and match a space and a digit
See a regex demo.
For example
import pandas as pd
items = [
[1, "UMM SURE THE ADDRESS IS IN 25088 KITTAN DRIVE NORTH CAROLINA 28605"],
[2, "IT IS ON 26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORIDA 28262"],
[3, "COOL 757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK 29875"]
]
df = pd.DataFrame(items, columns=["ID", "Text"])
df["Address"] = df["Text"].str.extract(
r'\b([0-9]{2,6}\b.*?(?:FLORIDA|NORTH CAROLINA|NEW YORK)) \d'
)
print(df)
Output
ID Text Address
0 1 UMM SURE THE ADDRESS IS IN 25088 KITTAN DRIVE ... 25088 KITTAN DRIVE NORTH CAROLINA
1 2 IT IS ON 26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORI... 26 W STREET 7TH HIGHWAY ORLANDO FLORIDA
2 3 COOL 757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK ... 757979 EAST TYRON BLVD NEW YORK NEW YORK
