Pandas Drop an Entire Column if All of the Values equal a Certain Value - python-3.x

Question

Let's say I have dataframes that looks like this:
df_one
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
3 Ian Org Paid
df_two:
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
The logic I am trying to implement is something like this:
If all of column C = "NaN" then drop the entire column
Else if all of column C = "Member" drop the entire column
else do nothing
Any suggestions?
Edit: Added Expected Output
Expected Output if using on both data frames:
df_one
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
3 Ian Org Paid
df_two:
a b
0 dave blue
1 bill red
2 sally green
Edit #2: Why am I doing this in the first place?
I am ripping text from a PDF file into placing into CSV files using the Tabula library.
The data is not coming out in the way that I am hoping it would, so I am applying ETL concepts to move the data around.
The final outcome would be for management to be able to open the final result into a nicely formatted Excel file.
Some of the columns have part of the headers put into a separate row and things got shifted around for some reason while ripping the data out of the PDF.
The headers look something like this:
Team Type Member Contact
Count
What I am doing is checking an entire column for certain header values. If the entire column has a header value, I'm dropping the entire column.

Answer 1

Idea is replace Member to missing values first, then test if at least one no missing value by notna with any and add all columns with Trues for mask by Series.reindex:
mask = (df[['c']].replace('Member',np.nan)
.notna()
.any()
.reindex(df.columns, axis=1, fill_value=True))
print (mask)
Another idea id chain both mask by & for bitwise AND:
mask = ((df[['c']].notna() & df[['c']].ne('Member'))
.any()
.reindex(df.columns, axis=1, fill_value=True))
print (mask)
Last filter by columns in DataFrame.loc:
df = df.loc[:, mask]

Answer 2

Here's an alternate approach to do this.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
c = ['a','b','c']
d = [
['dave', 'blue', np.NaN],
['bill', 'red', np.NaN],
['sally', 'green', 'Member'],
['Ian', 'Org', 'Paid']]
df1 = pd.DataFrame(d,columns = c)
df2 = df1.loc[df1['a'] != 'Ian']
print (df1)
print (df2)
if df1.c.replace('Member',np.NaN).isnull().all():
df1 = df1[df1.columns.drop(['c'])]
print (df1)
if df2.c.replace('Member',np.NaN).isnull().all():
df2 = df2[df2.columns.drop(['c'])]
print (df2)
Output of this is:
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
3 Ian Org Paid
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
a b c
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
3 Ian Org Paid
a b
0 dave blue
1 bill red
2 sally green

Answer 3

my idea is simple, maybe it will help you. I wanna make sure that you want this one: drop the whole column if this column contains only NaN or 'Member' else do nothing.
So I need to check the column first (contain only NaN or 'Member'). We change 'Member' to NaN and use numpy for a test(or something else).
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({'A':['dave','bill','sally','ian'],'B':['blue','red','green','org'],'C':[np.nan,np.nan,'Member','Paid']})
df2 = df.drop(index=[3],axis=0)
print(df)
print(df2)
# df 1
col = pd.Series([np.nan if x=='Member' else x for x in df['C'].tolist()])
if col.isnull().all():
df = df.drop(columns='C')
# df2
col = pd.Series([np.nan if x=='Member' else x for x in df2['C'].tolist()])
if col.isnull().all():
df2 = df2.drop(columns='C')
print(df)
print(df2)
A B C
0 dave blue NaN
1 bill red NaN
2 sally green Member
3 ian org Paid
A B
0 dave blue
1 bill red
2 sally green
