Given this pandas dataframe with two columns, 'Values' and 'Intervals'. How do I get a third column 'MinMax' indicating whether the value is a maximum or a minimum within that interval? The challenge for me is that the interval length and the distance between intervals are not fixed, therefore I post the question.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
data = pd.DataFrame([

In the third column below you can see where the max and min is for each interval.
