Pandas Dataframe Count Duplicate Rows And Fill In Column

I have created a DataFrame, and now need to count each duplicate row (by for example df['Gender']. Suppose Gender 'Male' occurs twice and Female three times, I need this column to

Solution 1:

Use the cumcount method after grouping by Gender:

df = pd.DataFrame({'Gender':['Male','Male','Female','Female','Female']})   
df['Occurrence'] = df.groupby('Gender').cumcount() + 1
print(df)

   Gender  Occurrence
0    Male           1
1    Male           2
2  Female           1
3  Female           2
4  Female           3

Counts start with 0 so I added a + 1 there.
