python - How to select rows in pandas based on list of values -

i'm trying find out way how can select rows in pandas dataframe based values in list. example

df = pd.dataframe(np.arange(6).reshape(3,2), columns=['a','b'])     b 0  0  1 1  2  3 2  4  5 

i know can select row, e.g.

df[df.a==0] 

will select me row a=0. want select multiple rows values in list, e.g. in [0,2]. tried

df[df.a in [0,2]] df[list(df.a)==[0,2]] 

but nothing works. in r language can provide %in% operator. in python syntax can use in [0,2], etc. how can select subset of rows in pandas in case? thanks, valentin.

pd.isin() select multiple values:

>>> df[df.a.isin([0,2])]     b 0  0  1 1  2  3
