I have a df (Pandas Dataframe) with three rows:
some_col_name "apple is delicious" "banana is delicious" "apple and banana both are delicious"
The function df.col_name.str.contains("apple|banana")
will catch all of the rows:
"apple is delicious", "banana is delicious", "apple and banana both are delicious".
How do I apply AND operator to the str.contains()
method, so that it only grabs strings that contain BOTH “apple” & “banana”?
"apple and banana both are delicious"
I’d like to grab strings that contains 10-20 different words (grape, watermelon, berry, orange, …, etc.)

You can do that as follows:
df[(df['col_name'].str.contains('apple')) & (df['col_name'].str.contains('banana'))]
