How to find if a value exists in Pandas dataframe

Question

Hi. I have the following pandas dataframe.

   Name Age
0 Mike 23
1 Eric 25
2 Donna 23
3 Will 23

I want to check if the value Mike exists and print True is yes and False if no. What logic should I use?

Try this:​

for name in df['Name']:
    if name==Mike':
        print('True')

else:

    Print(‘False’)
