pandas - If condition for comparison between two dataframes in Python

Am new to python programming. Can anyone pls check the below syntax for if condition-

if df1[A]<= df2[B]):
       print("")
else:
       print("")

Getting this exception - ValueError: The truth value of a Series is ambiguous. Use a.empty, a.bool(), a.item(), a.any() or a.all().

You compare arrays, no scalar, so output of camparing is another array. So need any or all. Also need length of both Series is same:

df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A':[1,2,3]})
print (df1)
   A
0  1
1  2
2  3

df2 = pd.DataFrame({'B':[1,2,0]})
print (df2)
   B
0  1
1  2
2  0

print (df1['A']<= df2['B'])
0     True
1     True
2    False
dtype: bool

#check if at least one True
print ((df1['A']<= df2['B']).any())
True

#check if all values are True
print ((df1['A']<= df2['B']).all())
False
if (df1['A']<= df2['B']).any():
       print("at least one value True")
else:
       print("no False values")
at least one value True

if (df1['A']<= df2['B']).all():
       print("all values True")
else:
       print("not all values True")

not all values True

df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A':[1,2,3]})
print (df1)
   A
0  1
1  2
2  3

df2 = pd.DataFrame({'B':[1,2,3]})
print (df2)
   B
0  1
1  2
2  3

print (df1['A']<= df2['B'])
0    True
1    True
2    True
dtype: bool

#check if at least one True
print ((df1['A']<= df2['B']).any())
True

#check if all values are True
print ((df1['A']<= df2['B']).all())
True
if (df1['A']<= df2['B']).any():
       print("at least one value True")
else:
       print("no False values")

at least one value True

if (df1['A']<= df2['B']).all():
       print("all values True")
else:
       print("not all values True")

all values True
