Can .apply use information from other groups?

For each element in a group determine if it is present in the next group (in the order as these groups appear). For the last group – all False.

Example:

df = pd.DataFrame({'group': [ 0,   1,   1,   0,   2 ], 
                     'val': ['a', 'b', 'a', 'c', 'c']})
grouped = df.groupby('group')

print(result)
0     True
1    False
2    False
3    False
4    False
Name: val, dtype: bool

What is the best way to do it? I can accomplish it like this, but it seems too hacky:

keys = list(grouped.groups.keys())

iterator_keys = iter(keys[1:])
def f(ser):
    if ser.name == keys[-1]:
        return ser.isin([])
    next_key = next(iterator_keys)
    return ser.isin(grouped.get_group(next_key)['val'])
result = grouped['val'].apply(f)

>Solution :

Try:

g = df.groupby("group")

m = g["val"].agg(set).shift(-1, fill_value=set())
x = g["val"].transform(lambda x: x.isin(m[x.name]))
print(x)

Prints:

0     True
1    False
2    False
3    False
4    False
Name: val, dtype: bool
