Numpy “where” with multiple conditions

by

I try to add a new column “energy_class” to a dataframe “df_energy” which it contains the string “high” if the “consumption_energy” value > 400, “medium” if the “consumption_energy” value is between 200 and 400, and “low” if the “consumption_energy” value is under 200.
I try to use np.where from numpy, but I see that numpy.where(condition[, x, y]) treat only two condition not 3 like in my case.

Working with big data in python and numpy, not enough ram, how to save partial results on disc?

I am trying to implement algorithms for 1000-dimensional data with 200k+ datapoints in python. I want to use numpy, scipy, sklearn, networkx, and other useful libraries. I want to perform operations such as pairwise distance between all of the points and do clustering on all of the points. I have implemented working algorithms that perform what I want with reasonable complexity but when I try to scale them to all of my data I run out of RAM. Of course, I do, creating the matrix for pairwise distances on 200k+ data takes a lot of memory.
