BasePandasDataset

The class implements functionality that is common to Modin’s pandas API for both DataFrame and Series classes.

Public API

class modin.pandas.base.BasePandasDataset

Implement most of the common code that exists in DataFrame/Series.

Since both objects share the same underlying representation, and the algorithms are the same, we use this object to define the general behavior of those objects and then use those objects to define the output type.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame for more.

abs()

Return a Series/DataFrame with absolute numeric value of each element.

This function only applies to elements that are all numeric.

Returns

Series/DataFrame containing the absolute value of each element.

Return type

abs

See also

numpy.absolute

Calculate the absolute value element-wise.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.abs for more. For complex inputs, 1.2 + 1j, the absolute value is \(\sqrt{ a^2 + b^2 }\).

Examples

Absolute numeric values in a Series.

>>> s = pd.Series([-1.10, 2, -3.33, 4])
>>> s.abs()
0    1.10
1    2.00
2    3.33
3    4.00
dtype: float64

Absolute numeric values in a Series with complex numbers.

>>> s = pd.Series([1.2 + 1j])
>>> s.abs()
0    1.56205
dtype: float64

Absolute numeric values in a Series with a Timedelta element.

>>> s = pd.Series([pd.Timedelta('1 days')])
>>> s.abs()
0   1 days
dtype: timedelta64[ns]

Select rows with data closest to certain value using argsort (from StackOverflow).

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({
...     'a': [4, 5, 6, 7],
...     'b': [10, 20, 30, 40],
...     'c': [100, 50, -30, -50]
... })

     a    b    c
0    4   10  100
1    5   20   50
2    6   30  -30
3    7   40  -50

1    5   20   50
0    4   10  100
2    6   30  -30
3    7   40  -50
add(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Get Addition of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator add).

Equivalent to dataframe + other, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, radd.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}) – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (float or None, default None) – Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.

Returns

Result of the arithmetic operation.

Return type

agg(func=None, axis=0, *args, **kwargs)

Aggregate using one or more operations over the specified axis.

Parameters
  • func (function, str, list or dict) –

    Function to use for aggregating the data. If a function, must either work when passed a DataFrame or when passed to DataFrame.apply.

    Accepted combinations are:

    • function

    • string function name

    • list of functions and/or function names, e.g. [np.sum, 'mean']

    • dict of axis labels -> functions, function names or list of such.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – If 0 or ‘index’: apply function to each column. If 1 or ‘columns’: apply function to each row.

  • *args – Positional arguments to pass to func.

  • **kwargs – Keyword arguments to pass to func.

Returns

  • scalar, Series or DataFrame – The return can be:

    • scalar : when Series.agg is called with single function

    • Series : when DataFrame.agg is called with a single function

    • DataFrame : when DataFrame.agg is called with several functions

    Return scalar, Series or DataFrame.

  • The aggregation operations are always performed over an axis, either the

  • index (default) or the column axis. This behavior is different from

  • numpy aggregation functions (mean, median, prod, sum, std,

  • var), where the default is to compute the aggregation of the flattened

  • array, e.g., numpy.mean(arr_2d) as opposed to

  • numpy.mean(arr_2d, axis=0).

  • agg is an alias for aggregate. Use the alias.

align(other, join='outer', axis=None, level=None, copy=True, fill_value=None, method=None, limit=None, fill_axis=0, broadcast_axis=None)

Align two objects on their axes with the specified join method.

Join method is specified for each axis Index.

Parameters
  • other (DataFrame or Series) –

  • join ({'outer', 'inner', 'left', 'right'}, default 'outer') –

  • axis (allowed axis of the other object, default None) – Align on index (0), columns (1), or both (None).

  • level (int or level name, default None) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Always returns new objects. If copy=False and no reindexing is required then original objects are returned.

  • fill_value (scalar, default np.NaN) – Value to use for missing values. Defaults to NaN, but can be any “compatible” value.

  • method ({'backfill', 'bfill', 'pad', 'ffill', None}, default None) –

    Method to use for filling holes in reindexed Series:

    • pad / ffill: propagate last valid observation forward to next valid.

    • backfill / bfill: use NEXT valid observation to fill gap.

  • limit (int, default None) – If method is specified, this is the maximum number of consecutive NaN values to forward/backward fill. In other words, if there is a gap with more than this number of consecutive NaNs, it will only be partially filled. If method is not specified, this is the maximum number of entries along the entire axis where NaNs will be filled. Must be greater than 0 if not None.

  • fill_axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Filling axis, method and limit.

  • broadcast_axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default None) – Broadcast values along this axis, if aligning two objects of different dimensions.

Returns

(left, right) – Aligned objects.

Return type

(DataFrame, type of other)

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.align for more.

all(axis=0, bool_only=None, skipna=True, level=None, **kwargs)

Return whether all elements are True, potentially over an axis.

Returns True unless there at least one element within a series or along a Dataframe axis that is False or equivalent (e.g. zero or empty).

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns', None}, default 0) –

    Indicate which axis or axes should be reduced.

    • 0 / ‘index’ : reduce the index, return a Series whose index is the original column labels.

    • 1 / ‘columns’ : reduce the columns, return a Series whose index is the original index.

    • None : reduce all axes, return a scalar.

  • bool_only (bool, default None) – Include only boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only boolean data. Not implemented for Series.

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values. If the entire row/column is NA and skipna is True, then the result will be True, as for an empty row/column. If skipna is False, then NA are treated as True, because these are not equal to zero.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • **kwargs (any, default None) – Additional keywords have no effect but might be accepted for compatibility with NumPy.

Returns

If level is specified, then, DataFrame is returned; otherwise, Series is returned.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

Series.all

Return True if all elements are True.

DataFrame.any

Return True if one (or more) elements are True.

False
>>> pd.Series([], dtype="float64").all()
True
>>> pd.Series([np.nan]).all()

0  True   True
1  True  False

Default behaviour checks if column-wise values all return True.

>>> df.all()
col1     True

dtype: bool

Specify axis='columns' to check if row-wise values all return True.

>>> df.all(axis='columns')

any(axis=0, bool_only=None, skipna=True, level=None, **kwargs)

Return whether any element is True, potentially over an axis.

Returns False unless there is at least one element within a series or along a Dataframe axis that is True or equivalent (e.g. non-zero or non-empty).

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns', None}, default 0) –

    Indicate which axis or axes should be reduced.

    • 0 / ‘index’ : reduce the index, return a Series whose index is the original column labels.

apply(func, axis=0, broadcast=None, raw=False, reduce=None, result_type=None, convert_dtype=True, args=(), **kwds)

Apply a function along an axis of the DataFrame.

Objects passed to the function are Series objects whose index is either the DataFrame’s index (axis=0) or the DataFrame’s columns (axis=1). By default (result_type=None), the final return type is inferred from the return type of the applied function. Otherwise, it depends on the result_type argument.

Parameters
  • func (function) – Function to apply to each column or row.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) –

    Axis along which the function is applied:

    • 0 or ‘index’: apply function to each column.

    • 1 or ‘columns’: apply function to each row.

  • raw (bool, default False) –

    Determines if row or column is passed as a Series or ndarray object:

    • False : passes each row or column as a Series to the function.

    • True : the passed function will receive ndarray objects instead. If you are just applying a NumPy reduction function this will achieve much better performance.

  • result_type ({'expand', 'reduce', 'broadcast', None}, default None) –

    These only act when axis=1 (columns):

    • ’expand’ : list-like results will be turned into columns.

    • ’reduce’ : returns a Series if possible rather than expanding list-like results. This is the opposite of ‘expand’.

    • ’broadcast’ : results will be broadcast to the original shape of the DataFrame, the original index and columns will be retained.

    The default behaviour (None) depends on the return value of the applied function: list-like results will be returned as a Series of those. However if the apply function returns a Series these are expanded to columns.

  • args (tuple) – Positional arguments to pass to func in addition to the array/series.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments to pass as keywords arguments to func.

Returns

Result of applying func along the given axis of the DataFrame.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.applymap

For elementwise operations.

DataFrame.aggregate

Only perform aggregating type operations.

DataFrame.transform

Only perform transforming type operations.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.apply for more. Functions that mutate the passed object can produce unexpected behavior or errors and are not supported. See gotchas.udf-mutation for more details.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[4, 9]] * 3, columns=['A', 'B'])
>>> df
   A  B
0  4  9
1  4  9
2  4  9

Using a numpy universal function (in this case the same as np.sqrt(df)):

>>> df.apply(np.sqrt)
     A    B
0  2.0  3.0
1  2.0  3.0
2  2.0  3.0

Using a reducing function on either axis

>>> df.apply(np.sum, axis=0)
A    12
B    27
dtype: int64
>>> df.apply(np.sum, axis=1)
0    13
1    13
2    13
dtype: int64

Returning a list-like will result in a Series

>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1)
0    [1, 2]
1    [1, 2]
2    [1, 2]
dtype: object

Passing result_type='expand' will expand list-like results to columns of a Dataframe

>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1, result_type='expand')
   0  1
0  1  2
1  1  2
2  1  2

Returning a Series inside the function is similar to passing result_type='expand'. The resulting column names will be the Series index.

>>> df.apply(lambda x: pd.Series([1, 2], index=['foo', 'bar']), axis=1)
   foo  bar
0    1    2
1    1    2
2    1    2

Passing result_type='broadcast' will ensure the same shape result, whether list-like or scalar is returned by the function, and broadcast it along the axis. The resulting column names will be the originals.

>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1, result_type='broadcast')
   A  B
0  1  2
1  1  2
2  1  2
asfreq(freq, method=None, how=None, normalize=False, fill_value=None)

Convert time series to specified frequency.

Returns the original data conformed to a new index with the specified frequency.

If the index of this DataFrame is a PeriodIndex, the new index is the result of transforming the original index with PeriodIndex.asfreq (so the original index will map one-to-one to the new index).

Otherwise, the new index will be equivalent to pd.date_range(start, end, freq=freq) where start and end are, respectively, the first and last entries in the original index (see pandas.date_range()). The values corresponding to any timesteps in the new index which were not present in the original index will be null (NaN), unless a method for filling such unknowns is provided (see the method parameter below).

The resample() method is more appropriate if an operation on each group of timesteps (such as an aggregate) is necessary to represent the data at the new frequency.

Parameters
  • freq (DateOffset or str) – Frequency DateOffset or string.

  • method ({'backfill'/'bfill', 'pad'/'ffill'}, default None) –

    Method to use for filling holes in reindexed Series (note this does not fill NaNs that already were present):

    • ’pad’ / ‘ffill’: propagate last valid observation forward to next valid

    • ’backfill’ / ‘bfill’: use NEXT valid observation to fill.

  • how ({'start', 'end'}, default end) – For PeriodIndex only (see PeriodIndex.asfreq).

  • normalize (bool, default False) – Whether to reset output index to midnight.

  • fill_value (scalar, optional) – Value to use for missing values, applied during upsampling (note this does not fill NaNs that already were present).

Returns

DataFrame object reindexed to the specified frequency.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

reindex

Conform DataFrame to new index with optional filling logic.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.asfreq for more. To learn more about the frequency strings, please see this link.

Examples

Start by creating a series with 4 one minute timestamps.

>>> index = pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=4, freq='T')
>>> series = pd.Series([0.0, None, 2.0, 3.0], index=index)
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'s': series})
>>> df
                       s
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0.0
2000-01-01 00:01:00    NaN
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2.0
2000-01-01 00:03:00    3.0

Upsample the series into 30 second bins.

>>> df.asfreq(freq='30S')
                       s
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0.0
2000-01-01 00:00:30    NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:00    NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:30    NaN
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2.0
2000-01-01 00:02:30    NaN
2000-01-01 00:03:00    3.0

Upsample again, providing a fill value.

>>> df.asfreq(freq='30S', fill_value=9.0)
                       s
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0.0
2000-01-01 00:00:30    9.0
2000-01-01 00:01:00    NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:30    9.0
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2.0
2000-01-01 00:02:30    9.0
2000-01-01 00:03:00    3.0

Upsample again, providing a method.

>>> df.asfreq(freq='30S', method='bfill')
                       s
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0.0
2000-01-01 00:00:30    NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:00    NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:30    2.0
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2.0
2000-01-01 00:02:30    3.0
2000-01-01 00:03:00    3.0
asof(where, subset=None)

Return the last row(s) without any NaNs before where.

The last row (for each element in where, if list) without any NaN is taken. In case of a DataFrame, the last row without NaN considering only the subset of columns (if not None)

If there is no good value, NaN is returned for a Series or a Series of NaN values for a DataFrame

Parameters
  • where (date or array-like of dates) – Date(s) before which the last row(s) are returned.

  • subset (str or array-like of str, default None) – For DataFrame, if not None, only use these columns to check for NaNs.

Returns

The return can be:

  • scalar : when self is a Series and where is a scalar

  • Series: when self is a Series and where is an array-like, or when self is a DataFrame and where is a scalar

  • DataFrame : when self is a DataFrame and where is an array-like

Return scalar, Series, or DataFrame.

Return type

scalar, Series, or DataFrame

See also

merge_asof

Perform an asof merge. Similar to left join.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.asof for more. Dates are assumed to be sorted. Raises if this is not the case.

Examples

A Series and a scalar where.

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2, np.nan, 4], index=[10, 20, 30, 40])
>>> s
10    1.0
20    2.0
30    NaN
40    4.0
dtype: float64
>>> s.asof(20)
2.0

For a sequence where, a Series is returned. The first value is NaN, because the first element of where is before the first index value.

>>> s.asof([5, 20])
5     NaN
20    2.0
dtype: float64

Missing values are not considered. The following is 2.0, not NaN, even though NaN is at the index location for 30.

>>> s.asof(30)
2.0

Take all columns into consideration

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'a': [10, 20, 30, 40, 50],
...                    'b': [None, None, None, None, 500]},
...                   index=pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-02-27 09:01:00',

...                                           '2018-02-27 09:05:00']))
>>> df.asof(pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-02-27 09:03:30',
...                           '2018-02-27 09:04:30']))
                      a   b
2018-02-27 09:03:30 NaN NaN
2018-02-27 09:04:30 NaN NaN

Take a single column into consideration

>>> df.asof(pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-02-27 09:03:30',
...                           '2018-02-27 09:04:30']),
...         subset=['a'])
                         a   b
2018-02-27 09:03:30   30.0 NaN
2018-02-27 09:04:30   40.0 NaN
astype(dtype, copy=True, errors='raise')

Cast a pandas object to a specified dtype dtype.

Parameters
  • dtype (data type, or dict of column name -> data type) – Use a numpy.dtype or Python type to cast entire pandas object to the same type. Alternatively, use {col: dtype, …}, where col is a column label and dtype is a numpy.dtype or Python type to cast one or more of the DataFrame’s columns to column-specific types.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Return a copy when copy=True (be very careful setting copy=False as changes to values then may propagate to other pandas objects).

  • errors ({'raise', 'ignore'}, default 'raise') –

    Control raising of exceptions on invalid data for provided dtype.

    • raise : allow exceptions to be raised

    • ignore : suppress exceptions. On error return original object.

Returns

casted

Return type

same type as caller

See also

to_datetime

Convert argument to datetime.

to_timedelta

Convert argument to timedelta.

to_numeric

Convert argument to a numeric type.

numpy.ndarray.astype

Cast a numpy array to a specified type.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.astype for more. .. deprecated:: 1.3.0

Using astype to convert from timezone-naive dtype to timezone-aware dtype is deprecated and will raise in a future version. Use Series.dt.tz_localize() instead.

Examples

Create a DataFrame:

>>> d = {'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]}
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(data=d)
>>> df.dtypes
col1    int64
col2    int64
dtype: object

Cast all columns to int32:

>>> df.astype('int32').dtypes
col1    int32
col2    int32
dtype: object

Cast col1 to int32 using a dictionary:

>>> df.astype({'col1': 'int32'}).dtypes
col1    int32
col2    int64
dtype: object

Create a series:

>>> ser = pd.Series([1, 2], dtype='int32')
>>> ser
0    1
1    2
dtype: int32
>>> ser.astype('int64')
0    1
1    2
dtype: int64

Convert to categorical type:

>>> ser.astype('category')
0    1
1    2
dtype: category
Categories (2, int64): [1, 2]

Convert to ordered categorical type with custom ordering:

>>> from pandas.api.types import CategoricalDtype
>>> cat_dtype = CategoricalDtype(
...     categories=[2, 1], ordered=True)
>>> ser.astype(cat_dtype)
0    1
1    2
dtype: category
Categories (2, int64): [2 < 1]

Note that using copy=False and changing data on a new pandas object may propagate changes:

>>> s1 = pd.Series([1, 2])
>>> s2 = s1.astype('int64', copy=False)
>>> s2[0] = 10
>>> s1  # note that s1[0] has changed too
0    10
1     2
dtype: int64

Create a series of dates:

>>> ser_date = pd.Series(pd.date_range('20200101', periods=3))
>>> ser_date
0   2020-01-01
1   2020-01-02
2   2020-01-03
dtype: datetime64[ns]
property at

combine(other, func, fill_value=None, **kwargs)

Perform column-wise combine with another DataFrame.

Combines a DataFrame with other DataFrame using func to element-wise combine columns. The row and column indexes of the resulting DataFrame will be the union of the two.

Parameters
  • other (DataFrame) – The DataFrame to merge column-wise.

  • func (function) – Function that takes two series as inputs and return a Series or a scalar. Used to merge the two dataframes column by columns.

  • fill_value (scalar value, default None) – The value to fill NaNs with prior to passing any column to the merge func.

  • overwrite (bool, default True) – If True, columns in self that do not exist in other will be overwritten with NaNs.

Returns

Combination of the provided DataFrames.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.combine_first

Combine two DataFrame objects and default to non-null values in frame calling the method.

Examples

Combine using a simple function that chooses the smaller column.

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [0, 0], 'B': [4, 4]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [3, 3]})
>>> take_smaller = lambda s1, s2: s1 if s1.sum() < s2.sum() else s2
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller)
   A  B
0  0  3
1  0  3

Example using a true element-wise combine function.

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [5, 0], 'B': [2, 4]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [3, 3]})
>>> df1.combine(df2, np.minimum)
   A  B
0  1  2
1  0  3

Using fill_value fills Nones prior to passing the column to the merge function.

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [0, 0], 'B': [None, 4]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [3, 3]})
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller, fill_value=-5)
   A    B
0  0 -5.0
1  0  4.0

However, if the same element in both dataframes is None, that None is preserved

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [0, 0], 'B': [None, 4]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [None, 3]})
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller, fill_value=-5)
    A    B
0  0 -5.0
1  0  3.0

Example that demonstrates the use of overwrite and behavior when the axis differ between the dataframes.

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [0, 0], 'B': [4, 4]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'B': [3, 3], 'C': [-10, 1], }, index=[1, 2])
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller)
     A    B     C
0  NaN  NaN   NaN
1  NaN  3.0 -10.0
2  NaN  3.0   1.0
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller, overwrite=False)
     A    B     C
0  0.0  NaN   NaN
1  0.0  3.0 -10.0
2  NaN  3.0   1.0

Demonstrating the preference of the passed in dataframe.

>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'B': [3, 3], 'C': [1, 1], }, index=[1, 2])
>>> df2.combine(df1, take_smaller)
   A    B   C
0  0.0  NaN NaN
1  0.0  3.0 NaN
2  NaN  3.0 NaN
>>> df2.combine(df1, take_smaller, overwrite=False)
     A    B   C
0  0.0  NaN NaN
1  0.0  3.0 1.0
2  NaN  3.0 1.0

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.combine for more.

combine_first(other)

Update null elements with value in the same location in other.

Combine two DataFrame objects by filling null values in one DataFrame with non-null values from other DataFrame. The row and column indexes of the resulting DataFrame will be the union of the two.

Parameters

other (DataFrame) – Provided DataFrame to use to fill null values.

Returns

The result of combining the provided DataFrame with the other object.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.combine

Perform series-wise operation on two DataFrames using a given function.

Examples

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [None, 0], 'B': [None, 4]})

>>> df1.combine_first(df2)
     A    B
0  1.0  3.0
1  0.0  4.0

Null values still persist if the location of that null value does not exist in other

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'A': [None, 0], 'B': [4, None]})
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'B': [3, 3], 'C': [1, 1]}, index=[1, 2])
>>> df1.combine_first(df2)
     A    B    C
0  NaN  4.0  NaN
1  0.0  3.0  1.0
2  NaN  3.0  1.0

    Whether, if possible, conversion can be done to floating extension types. If convert_integer is also True, preference will be give to integer dtypes if the floats can be faithfully casted to integers.

    New in version 1.2.0.

Returns

Copy of input object with new dtype.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

infer_objects

Infer dtypes of objects.

to_datetime

Convert argument to datetime.

to_timedelta

Convert argument to timedelta.

to_numeric

Convert argument to a numeric type.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.convert_dtypes for more. By default, convert_dtypes will attempt to convert a Series (or each Series in a DataFrame) to dtypes that support pd.NA. By using the options convert_string, convert_integer, convert_boolean and convert_boolean, it is possible to turn off individual conversions to StringDtype, the integer extension types, BooleanDtype or floating extension types, respectively.

For object-dtyped columns, if infer_objects is True, use the inference rules as during normal Series/DataFrame construction. Then, if possible, convert to StringDtype, BooleanDtype or an appropriate integer or floating extension type, otherwise leave as object.

If the dtype is integer, convert to an appropriate integer extension type.

If the dtype is numeric, and consists of all integers, convert to an appropriate integer extension type. Otherwise, convert to an appropriate floating extension type.

Changed in version 1.2: Starting with pandas 1.2, this method also converts float columns to the nullable floating extension type.

In the future, as new dtypes are added that support pd.NA, the results of this method will change to support those new dtypes.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         "a": pd.Series([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.dtype("int32")),
...         "b": pd.Series(["x", "y", "z"], dtype=np.dtype("O")),
...         "c": pd.Series([True, False, np.nan], dtype=np.dtype("O")),
...         "d": pd.Series(["h", "i", np.nan], dtype=np.dtype("O")),
...         "e": pd.Series([10, np.nan, 20], dtype=np.dtype("float")),
...         "f": pd.Series([np.nan, 100.5, 200], dtype=np.dtype("float")),
...     }
... )

Start with a DataFrame with default dtypes.

>>> df
   a  b      c    d     e      f
0  1  x   True    h  10.0    NaN
1  2  y  False    i   NaN  100.5
2  3  z    NaN  NaN  20.0  200.0
>>> df.dtypes
a      int32
b     object
c     object
d     object
e    float64
f    float64
dtype: object

Convert the DataFrame to use best possible dtypes.

>>> dfn = df.convert_dtypes()
>>> dfn
   a  b      c     d     e      f
0  1  x   True     h    10   <NA>
1  2  y  False     i  <NA>  100.5
2  3  z   <NA>  <NA>    20  200.0
>>> dfn.dtypes
a      Int32
b     string
c    boolean
d     string
e      Int64
f    Float64
dtype: object

Start with a Series of strings and missing data represented by np.nan.

>>> s = pd.Series(["a", "b", np.nan])
>>> s
0      a
1      b
2    NaN
dtype: object

Obtain a Series with dtype StringDtype.

>>> s.convert_dtypes()
0       a
1       b
2    <NA>
dtype: string
copy(deep=True)

Make a copy of this object’s indices and data.

When deep=True (default), a new object will be created with a copy of the calling object’s data and indices. Modifications to the data or indices of the copy will not be reflected in the original object (see notes below).

When deep=False, a new object will be created without copying the calling object’s data or index (only references to the data and index are copied). Any changes to the data of the original will be reflected in the shallow copy (and vice versa).

Parameters

deep (bool, default True) – Make a deep copy, including a copy of the data and the indices. With deep=False neither the indices nor the data are copied.

Returns

copy – Object type matches caller.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.copy for more. When deep=True, data is copied but actual Python objects will not be copied recursively, only the reference to the object. This is in contrast to copy.deepcopy in the Standard Library, which recursively copies object data (see examples below).

While Index objects are copied when deep=True, the underlying numpy array is not copied for performance reasons. Since Index is immutable, the underlying data can be safely shared and a copy is not needed.

Examples

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2], index=["a", "b"])
>>> s
a    1
b    2
dtype: int64
>>> s_copy = s.copy()
>>> s_copy
a    1
b    2
dtype: int64

Shallow copy versus default (deep) copy:

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2], index=["a", "b"])
>>> deep = s.copy()
>>> shallow = s.copy(deep=False)

Shallow copy shares data and index with original.

>>> s is shallow
False
>>> s.values is shallow.values and s.index is shallow.index
True

Deep copy has own copy of data and index.

>>> s is deep
False
>>> s.values is deep.values or s.index is deep.index
False

Updates to the data shared by shallow copy and original is reflected in both; deep copy remains unchanged.

>>> s[0] = 3
>>> shallow[1] = 4
>>> s
a    3
b    4
dtype: int64
>>> shallow
a    3
b    4
dtype: int64
>>> deep
a    1
b    2
dtype: int64

Note that when copying an object containing Python objects, a deep copy will copy the data, but will not do so recursively. Updating a nested data object will be reflected in the deep copy.

>>> s = pd.Series([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
>>> deep = s.copy()
>>> s[0][0] = 10
>>> s
0    [10, 2]
1     [3, 4]
dtype: object
>>> deep
0    [10, 2]
1     [3, 4]
dtype: object
count(axis=0, level=None, numeric_only=False)

Count non-NA cells for each column or row.

The values None, NaN, NaT, and optionally numpy.inf (depending on pandas.options.mode.use_inf_as_na) are considered NA.

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – If 0 or ‘index’ counts are generated for each column. If 1 or ‘columns’ counts are generated for each row.

  • level (int or str, optional) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a DataFrame. A str specifies the level name.

  • numeric_only (bool, default False) – Include only float, int or boolean data.

Returns

For each column/row the number of non-NA/null entries. If level is specified returns a DataFrame.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

Series.count

Number of non-NA elements in a Series.

DataFrame.value_counts

Count unique combinations of columns.

DataFrame.shape

Number of DataFrame rows and columns (including NA elements).

DataFrame.isna

Examples

Constructing DataFrame from a dictionary:

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"Person":
...                    ["John", "Myla", "Lewis", "John", "Myla"],
...                    "Age": [24., np.nan, 21., 33, 26],
...                    "Single": [False, True, True, True, False]})
>>> df
   Person   Age  Single
0    John  24.0   False
1    Myla   NaN    True
2   Lewis  21.0    True
3    John  33.0    True
4    Myla  26.0   False

Notice the uncounted NA values:

>>> df.count()
Person    5
Age       4
Single    5
dtype: int64

Counts for each row:

>>> df.count(axis='columns')
0    3
1    2
2    3
3    3
4    3
dtype: int64

describe(percentiles=None, include=None, exclude=None, datetime_is_numeric=False)

Generate descriptive statistics.

Descriptive statistics include those that summarize the central tendency, dispersion and shape of a dataset’s distribution, excluding NaN values.

Analyzes both numeric and object series, as well as DataFrame column sets of mixed data types. The output will vary depending on what is provided. Refer to the notes below for more detail.

Parameters
  • percentiles (list-like of numbers, optional) – The percentiles to include in the output. All should fall between 0 and 1. The default is [.25, .5, .75], which returns the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles.

  • include ('all', list-like of dtypes or None (default), optional) –

    A white list of data types to include in the result. Ignored for Series. Here are the options:

    • ’all’ : All columns of the input will be included in the output.

    • A list-like of dtypes : Limits the results to the provided data types. To limit the result to numeric types submit numpy.number. To limit it instead to object columns submit the numpy.object data type. Strings can also be used in the style of select_dtypes (e.g. df.describe(include=['O'])). To select pandas categorical columns, use 'category'

    • None (default) : The result will include all numeric columns.

  • exclude (list-like of dtypes or None (default), optional,) –

    A black list of data types to omit from the result. Ignored for Series. Here are the options:

    • A list-like of dtypes : Excludes the provided data types from the result. To exclude numeric types submit numpy.number. To exclude object columns submit the data type numpy.object. Strings can also be used in the style of select_dtypes (e.g. df.describe(include=['O'])). To exclude pandas categorical columns, use 'category'

    • None (default) : The result will exclude nothing.

  • datetime_is_numeric (bool, default False) –

    Whether to treat datetime dtypes as numeric. This affects statistics calculated for the column. For DataFrame input, this also controls whether datetime columns are included by default.

    New in version 1.1.0.

Returns

Summary statistics of the Series or Dataframe provided.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.count

Count number of non-NA/null observations.

DataFrame.max

Maximum of the values in the object.

DataFrame.min

Minimum of the values in the object.

DataFrame.mean

Mean of the values.

DataFrame.std

Standard deviation of the observations.

DataFrame.select_dtypes

Subset of a DataFrame including/excluding columns based on their dtype.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.describe for more. For numeric data, the result’s index will include count, mean, std, min, max as well as lower, 50 and upper percentiles. By default the lower percentile is 25 and the upper percentile is 75. The 50 percentile is the same as the median.

For object data (e.g. strings or timestamps), the result’s index will include count, unique, top, and freq. The top is the most common value. The freq is the most common value’s frequency. Timestamps also include the first and last items.

If multiple object values have the highest count, then the count and top results will be arbitrarily chosen from among those with the highest count.

For mixed data types provided via a DataFrame, the default is to return only an analysis of numeric columns. If the dataframe consists only of object and categorical data without any numeric columns, the default is to return an analysis of both the object and categorical columns. If include='all' is provided as an option, the result will include a union of attributes of each type.

The include and exclude parameters can be used to limit which columns in a DataFrame are analyzed for the output. The parameters are ignored when analyzing a Series.

diff(periods=1, axis=0)

First discrete difference of element.

Calculates the difference of a Dataframe element compared with another element in the Dataframe (default is element in previous row).

Parameters
  • periods (int, default 1) – Periods to shift for calculating difference, accepts negative values.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Take difference over rows (0) or columns (1).

Returns

First differences of the Series.

Return type

Dataframe

See also

Dataframe.pct_change

Percent change over given number of periods.

Dataframe.shift

Shift index by desired number of periods with an optional time freq.

Series.diff

First discrete difference of object.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.diff for more. For boolean dtypes, this uses operator.xor() rather than operator.sub(). The result is calculated according to current dtype in Dataframe, however dtype of the result is always float64.

div(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Get Floating division of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator truediv).

Equivalent to dataframe / other, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, rtruediv.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}) – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (float or None, default None) – Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.

Returns

Result of the arithmetic operation.

drop(labels=None, axis=0, index=None, columns=None, level=None, inplace=False, errors='raise')

Drop specified labels from rows or columns.

Remove rows or columns by specifying label names and corresponding axis, or by specifying directly index or column names. When using a multi-index, labels on different levels can be removed by specifying the level. See the user guide <advanced.shown_levels> for more information about the now unused levels.

Parameters
  • labels (single label or list-like) – Index or column labels to drop.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Whether to drop labels from the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’).

  • index (single label or list-like) – Alternative to specifying axis (labels, axis=0 is equivalent to index=labels).

  • columns (single label or list-like) – Alternative to specifying axis (labels, axis=1 is equivalent to columns=labels).

  • level (int or level name, optional) – For MultiIndex, level from which the labels will be removed.

  • inplace (bool, default False) – If False, return a copy. Otherwise, do operation inplace and return None.

  • errors ({'ignore', 'raise'}, default 'raise') – If ‘ignore’, suppress error and only existing labels are dropped.

Returns

DataFrame without the removed index or column labels or None if inplace=True.

Return type

DataFrame or None

Raises

KeyError – If any of the labels is not found in the selected axis.

See also

DataFrame.loc

Label-location based indexer for selection by label.

DataFrame.dropna

Return DataFrame with labels on given axis omitted where (all or any) data are missing.

DataFrame.drop_duplicates

Return DataFrame with duplicate rows removed, optionally only considering certain columns.

Series.drop

Return Series with specified index labels removed.

eq(other, axis='columns', level=None)

Get Equal to of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator eq).

Among flexible wrappers (eq, ne, le, lt, ge, gt) to comparison operators.

Equivalent to ==, !=, <=, <, >=, > with support to choose axis (rows or columns) and level for comparison.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 'columns') – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’).

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

Returns

Result of the comparison.

Return type

DataFrame of bool

See also

DataFrame.eq

Compare DataFrames for equality elementwise.

DataFrame.ne

Compare DataFrames for inequality elementwise.

DataFrame.le

Compare DataFrames for less than inequality or equality elementwise.

DataFrame.lt

Compare DataFrames for strictly less than inequality elementwise.

DataFrame.ge

Compare DataFrames for greater than inequality or equality elementwise.

DataFrame.gt

Compare DataFrames for strictly greater than inequality elementwise.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.eq for more. Mismatched indices will be unioned together. NaN values are considered different (i.e. NaN != NaN).

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100],
...                    'revenue': [100, 250, 300]},
...                   index=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df
   cost  revenue
A   250      100
B   150      250
C   100      300

Comparison with a scalar, using either the operator or method:

>>> df == 100
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False
>>> df.eq(100)
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False

When other is a Series, the columns of a DataFrame are aligned with the index of other and broadcast:

>>> df != pd.Series([100, 250], index=["cost", "revenue"])
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B   True    False
C  False     True

Use the method to control the broadcast axis:

>>> df.ne(pd.Series([100, 300], index=["A", "D"]), axis='index')
   cost  revenue
A  True    False
B  True     True
C  True     True
D  True     True

When comparing to an arbitrary sequence, the number of columns must match the number elements in other:

>>> df == [250, 100]
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B  False    False
C  False    False

Use the method to control the axis:

>>> df.eq([250, 250, 100], axis='index')
    cost  revenue
A   True    False
B  False     True
C   True    False

Compare to a DataFrame of different shape.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'revenue': [300, 250, 100, 150]},
...                      index=['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
>>> other
   revenue
A      300
B      250
C      100
D      150
>>> df.gt(other)
    cost  revenue
A  False    False
B  False    False
C  False     True
D  False    False

Compare to a MultiIndex by level.

>>> df_multindex = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100, 150, 300, 220],
...                              'revenue': [100, 250, 300, 200, 175, 225]},
...                             index=[['Q1', 'Q1', 'Q1', 'Q2', 'Q2', 'Q2'],
...                                    ['A', 'B', 'C', 'A', 'B', 'C']])
>>> df_multindex
      cost  revenue
Q1 A   250      100
   B   150      250
   C   100      300
Q2 A   150      200
   B   300      175
   C   220      225
>>> df.le(df_multindex, level=1)
       cost  revenue

   B   True     True
   C   True     True
Q2 A  False     True

   C   True    False
ewm(com=None, span=None, halflife=None, alpha=None, min_periods=0, adjust=True, ignore_na=False, axis=0, times=None)

Provide exponential weighted (EW) functions.

Available EW functions: mean(), var(), std(), corr(), cov().

Exactly one parameter: com, span, halflife, or alpha must be provided.

Parameters
  • com (float, optional) – Specify decay in terms of center of mass, \(\alpha = 1 / (1 + com)\), for \(com \geq 0\).

  • span (float, optional) – Specify decay in terms of span, \(\alpha = 2 / (span + 1)\), for \(span \geq 1\).

  • halflife (float, str, timedelta, optional) –

    Specify decay in terms of half-life, \(\alpha = 1 - \exp\left(-\ln(2) / halflife\right)\), for \(halflife > 0\).

    If times is specified, the time unit (str or timedelta) over which an observation decays to half its value. Only applicable to mean() and halflife value will not apply to the other functions.

    New in version 1.1.0.

  • alpha (float, optional) – Specify smoothing factor \(\alpha\) directly, \(0 < \alpha \leq 1\).

  • min_periods (int, default 0) – Minimum number of observations in window required to have a value (otherwise result is NA).

  • adjust (bool, default True) –

    Divide by decaying adjustment factor in beginning periods to account for imbalance in relative weightings (viewing EWMA as a moving average).

    • When adjust=True (default), the EW function is calculated using weights \(w_i = (1 - \alpha)^i\). For example, the EW moving average of the series [\(x_0, x_1, ..., x_t\)] would be:

    \[y_t = \frac{x_t + (1 - \alpha)x_{t-1} + (1 - \alpha)^2 x_{t-2} + ... + (1 - \alpha)^t x_0}{1 + (1 - \alpha) + (1 - \alpha)^2 + ... + (1 - \alpha)^t}\]
    • When adjust=False, the exponentially weighted function is calculated recursively:

    \[\begin{split}\begin{split} y_0 &= x_0\\ y_t &= (1 - \alpha) y_{t-1} + \alpha x_t, \end{split}\end{split}\]

  • ignore_na (bool, default False) –

    Ignore missing values when calculating weights; specify True to reproduce pre-0.15.0 behavior.

    • When ignore_na=False (default), weights are based on absolute positions. For example, the weights of \(x_0\) and \(x_2\) used in calculating the final weighted average of [\(x_0\), None, \(x_2\)] are \((1-\alpha)^2\) and \(1\) if adjust=True, and \((1-\alpha)^2\) and \(\alpha\) if adjust=False.

    • When ignore_na=True (reproducing pre-0.15.0 behavior), weights are based on relative positions. For example, the weights of \(x_0\) and \(x_2\) used in calculating the final weighted average of [\(x_0\), None, \(x_2\)] are \(1-\alpha\) and \(1\) if adjust=True, and \(1-\alpha\) and \(\alpha\) if adjust=False.

  • axis ({0, 1}, default 0) – The axis to use. The value 0 identifies the rows, and 1 identifies the columns.

  • times (str, np.ndarray, Series, default None) –

    New in version 1.1.0.

    Times corresponding to the observations. Must be monotonically increasing and datetime64[ns] dtype.

    If str, the name of the column in the DataFrame representing the times.

    If 1-D array like, a sequence with the same shape as the observations.

    Only applicable to mean().

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.filter for more. The items, like, and regex parameters are enforced to be mutually exclusive.

axis defaults to the info axis that is used when indexing with [].

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame(np.array(([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6])),
...                   index=['mouse', 'rabbit'],
...                   columns=['one', 'two', 'three'])
>>> df

>>> ts.first('3D')
            A
2018-04-09  1
2018-04-11  2

Notice the data for 3 first calendar days were returned, not the first 3 days observed in the dataset, and therefore data for 2018-04-13 was not returned.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.first for more.

first_valid_index()

Return index for first non-NA value or None, if no NA value is found.

Returns

The available flags are

  • Flags.allows_duplicate_labels

See also

Flags

Flags that apply to pandas objects.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.flags for more. “Flags” differ from “metadata”. Flags reflect properties of the pandas object (the Series or DataFrame). Metadata refer to properties of the dataset, and should be stored in DataFrame.attrs.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2]})
>>> df.flags
<Flags(allows_duplicate_labels=True)>

Flags can be get or set using .

>>> df.flags.allows_duplicate_labels
True
>>> df.flags.allows_duplicate_labels = False

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100],
...                    'revenue': [100, 250, 300]},
...                   index=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df
   cost  revenue
A   250      100
B   150      250
C   100      300

Comparison with a scalar, using either the operator or method:

>>> df == 100
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False
>>> df.eq(100)
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False

When other is a Series, the columns of a DataFrame are aligned with the index of other and broadcast:

>>> df != pd.Series([100, 250], index=["cost", "revenue"])
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B   True    False
C  False     True

Use the method to control the broadcast axis:

>>> df.ne(pd.Series([100, 300], index=["A", "D"]), axis='index')
   cost  revenue
A  True    False
B  True     True
C  True     True
D  True     True

When comparing to an arbitrary sequence, the number of columns must match the number elements in other:

>>> df == [250, 100]
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B  False    False
C  False    False

Use the method to control the axis:

>>> df.eq([250, 250, 100], axis='index')
    cost  revenue
A   True    False
B  False     True
C   True    False

Compare to a DataFrame of different shape.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'revenue': [300, 250, 100, 150]},
...                      index=['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
>>> other
   revenue
A      300
B      250
C      100
D      150
>>> df.gt(other)
    cost  revenue
A  False    False
B  False    False
C  False     True
D  False    False

property iloc

Purely integer-location based indexing for selection by position.

.iloc[] is primarily integer position based (from 0 to length-1 of the axis), but may also be used with a boolean array.

Allowed inputs are:

  • An integer, e.g. 5.

  • A list or array of integers, e.g. [4, 3, 0].

  • A slice object with ints, e.g. 1:7.

  • A boolean array.

  • A callable function with one argument (the calling Series or DataFrame) and that returns valid output for indexing (one of the above). This is useful in method chains, when you don’t have a reference to the calling object, but would like to base your selection on some value.

.iloc will raise IndexError if a requested indexer is out-of-bounds, except slice indexers which allow out-of-bounds indexing (this conforms with python/numpy slice semantics).

See more at Selection by Position.

See also

DataFrame.iat

Fast integer location scalar accessor.

DataFrame.loc

Purely label-location based indexer for selection by label.

Series.iloc

Purely integer-location based indexing for selection by position.

<class 'pandas.core.series.Series'>
>>> df.iloc[0]
a    1
b    2
c    3
d    4
Name: 0, dtype: int64

With a list of integers.

>>> df.iloc[[0]]
   a  b  c  d
0  1  2  3  4
>>> type(df.iloc[[0]])
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
>>> df.iloc[[0, 1]]

0     1     2     3     4
2  1000  2000  3000  4000

Indexing both axes

You can mix the indexer types for the index and columns. Use : to select the entire axis.

With scalar integers.

>>> df.iloc[0, 1]
2

With lists of integers.

>>> df.iloc[[0, 2], [1, 3]]
      b     d
0     2     4
2  2000  4000

With slice objects.

>>> df.iloc[1:3, 0:3]
      a     b     c
1   100   200   300
2  1000  2000  3000

With a boolean array whose length matches the columns.

>>> df.iloc[:, [True, False, True, False]]
      a     c
0     1     3
1   100   300
2  1000  3000

With a callable function that expects the Series or DataFrame.

>>> df.iloc[:, lambda df: [0, 2]]
      a     c
0     1     3
1   100   300
2  1000  3000

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.iloc for more.

property index

Get the index for this DataFrame.

Returns

The union of all indexes across the partitions.

Return type

pandas.Index

infer_objects()

Attempt to infer better dtypes for object columns.

Attempts soft conversion of object-dtyped columns, leaving non-object and unconvertible columns unchanged. The inference rules are the same as during normal Series/DataFrame construction.

Returns

converted

Return type

same type as input object

See also

to_datetime

Convert argument to datetime.

to_timedelta

Convert argument to timedelta.

to_numeric

Convert argument to numeric type.

convert_dtypes

Convert argument to best possible dtype.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": ["a", 1, 2, 3]})
>>> df = df.iloc[1:]
>>> df
   A
1  1
2  2
3  3
>>> df.dtypes
A    object
dtype: object
>>> df.infer_objects().dtypes
A    int64
dtype: object

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.infer_objects for more.

isin(values)

Whether each element in the DataFrame is contained in values.

Parameters

values (iterable, Series, DataFrame or dict) – The result will only be true at a location if all the labels match. If values is a Series, that’s the index. If values is a dict, the keys must be the column names, which must match. If values is a DataFrame, then both the index and column labels must match.

Returns

DataFrame of booleans showing whether each element in the DataFrame is contained in values.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.eq

Equality test for DataFrame.

Series.isin

Equivalent method on Series.

Series.str.contains

Test if pattern or regex is contained within a string of a Series or Index.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'num_legs': [2, 4], 'num_wings': [2, 0]},
...                   index=['falcon', 'dog'])
>>> df
        num_legs  num_wings
falcon         2          2
dog            4          0

When values is a list check whether every value in the DataFrame is present in the list (which animals have 0 or 2 legs or wings)

>>> df.isin([0, 2])
        num_legs  num_wings
falcon      True       True
dog        False       True

When values is a dict, we can pass values to check for each column separately:

>>> df.isin({'num_wings': [0, 3]})
        num_legs  num_wings
falcon     False      False
dog        False       True

When values is a Series or DataFrame the index and column must match. Note that ‘falcon’ does not match based on the number of legs in df2.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'num_legs': [8, 2], 'num_wings': [0, 2]},
...                      index=['spider', 'falcon'])
>>> df.isin(other)
        num_legs  num_wings
falcon      True       True
dog        False      False

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.isin for more.

Kurtosis obtained using Fisher’s definition of kurtosis (kurtosis of normal == 0.0). Normalized by N-1.

Parameters
  • axis ({index (0), columns (1)}) – Axis for the function to be applied on.

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values when computing the result.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • numeric_only (bool, default None) – Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments to be passed to the function.

Returns

Return type

Series or DataFrame (if level specified)

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.kurt for more.

kurtosis(axis=None, skipna=None, level=None, numeric_only=None, **kwargs)

last(offset)

Select final periods of time series data based on a date offset.

For a DataFrame with a sorted DatetimeIndex, this function selects the last few rows based on a date offset.

Parameters

offset (str, DateOffset, dateutil.relativedelta) – The offset length of the data that will be selected. For instance, ‘3D’ will display all the rows having their index within the last 3 days.

Returns

A subset of the caller.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

Raises

TypeError – If the index is not a DatetimeIndex

See also

first

Select initial periods of time series based on a date offset.

at_time

Select values at a particular time of the day.

between_time

Select values between particular times of the day.

Examples

>>> i = pd.date_range('2018-04-09', periods=4, freq='2D')
>>> ts = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 2, 3, 4]}, index=i)
>>> ts
            A
2018-04-09  1
2018-04-11  2
2018-04-13  3
2018-04-15  4

Get the rows for the last 3 days:

>>> ts.last('3D')
            A
2018-04-13  3
2018-04-15  4

Notice the data for 3 last calendar days were returned, not the last 3 observed days in the dataset, and therefore data for 2018-04-11 was not returned.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.last for more.

last_valid_index()

Return index for last non-NA value or None, if no NA value is found.

Returns

scalar

Return type

type of index

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.last_valid_index for more. If all elements are non-NA/null, returns None. Also returns None for empty Series/DataFrame.

le(other, axis='columns', level=None)

Get Less than or equal to of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator le).

Among flexible wrappers (eq, ne, le, lt, ge, gt) to comparison operators.

Equivalent to ==, !=, <=, <, >=, > with support to choose axis (rows or columns) and level for comparison.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 'columns') – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’).

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

Returns

Result of the comparison.

Return type

DataFrame of bool

See also

DataFrame.lt

Compare DataFrames for strictly less than inequality elementwise.

DataFrame.ge

Compare DataFrames for greater than inequality or equality elementwise.

DataFrame.gt

Compare DataFrames for strictly greater than inequality elementwise.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.le for more. Mismatched indices will be unioned together. NaN values are considered different (i.e. NaN != NaN).

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100],
...                    'revenue': [100, 250, 300]},
...                   index=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df
   cost  revenue
A   250      100
B   150      250
C   100      300

Comparison with a scalar, using either the operator or method:

>>> df == 100
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False
>>> df.eq(100)
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False

When other is a Series, the columns of a DataFrame are aligned with the index of other and broadcast:

>>> df != pd.Series([100, 250], index=["cost", "revenue"])
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B   True    False
C  False     True

Use the method to control the broadcast axis:

>>> df.ne(pd.Series([100, 300], index=["A", "D"]), axis='index')
   cost  revenue
A  True    False
B  True     True
C  True     True
D  True     True

When comparing to an arbitrary sequence, the number of columns must match the number elements in other:

>>> df == [250, 100]
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B  False    False
C  False    False

Use the method to control the axis:

>>> df.eq([250, 250, 100], axis='index')
    cost  revenue
A   True    False
B  False     True
C   True    False

Compare to a DataFrame of different shape.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'revenue': [300, 250, 100, 150]},
...                      index=['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
>>> other
   revenue
A      300
B      250
C      100
D      150
>>> df.gt(other)
    cost  revenue
A  False    False
B  False    False
C  False     True
D  False    False

Compare to a MultiIndex by level.

>>> df_multindex = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100, 150, 300, 220],
...                              'revenue': [100, 250, 300, 200, 175, 225]},
...                             index=[['Q1', 'Q1', 'Q1', 'Q2', 'Q2', 'Q2'],
...                                    ['A', 'B', 'C', 'A', 'B', 'C']])
>>> df_multindex
      cost  revenue
Q1 A   250      100
   B   150      250
   C   100      300
Q2 A   150      200
   B   300      175
   C   220      225
>>> df.le(df_multindex, level=1)
       cost  revenue
Q1 A   True     True
   B   True     True
   C   True     True
Q2 A  False     True
   B   True    False
   C   True    False
property loc

Access a group of rows and columns by label(s) or a boolean array.

.loc[] is primarily label based, but may also be used with a boolean array.

Allowed inputs are:

  • A single label, e.g. 5 or 'a', (note that 5 is interpreted as a label of the index, and never as an integer position along the index).

  • A list or array of labels, e.g. ['a', 'b', 'c'].

  • A slice object with labels, e.g. 'a':'f'.

    Warning

    Note that contrary to usual python slices, both the start and the stop are included

  • A boolean array of the same length as the axis being sliced, e.g. [True, False, True].

  • An alignable boolean Series. The index of the key will be aligned before masking.

  • An alignable Index. The Index of the returned selection will be the input.

  • A callable function with one argument (the calling Series or DataFrame) and that returns valid output for indexing (one of the above)

See more at Selection by Label.

Raises
  • KeyError – If any items are not found.

  • IndexingError – If an indexed key is passed and its index is unalignable to the frame index.

See also

DataFrame.at

Access a single value for a row/column label pair.

DataFrame.iloc

Access group of rows and columns by integer position(s).

DataFrame.xs

Returns a cross-section (row(s) or column(s)) from the Series/DataFrame.

Series.loc

Access group of values using labels.

Getting values with a MultiIndex

A number of examples using a DataFrame with a MultiIndex

>>> tuples = [
...    ('cobra', 'mark i'), ('cobra', 'mark ii'),
...    ('sidewinder', 'mark i'), ('sidewinder', 'mark ii'),
...    ('viper', 'mark ii'), ('viper', 'mark iii')
... ]
>>> index = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples(tuples)
>>> values = [[12, 2], [0, 4], [10, 20],
...         [1, 4], [7, 1], [16, 36]]
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(values, columns=['max_speed', 'shield'], index=index)
>>> df
                     max_speed  shield
cobra      mark i           12       2
           mark ii           0       4
sidewinder mark i           10      20
           mark ii           1       4
viper      mark ii           7       1
           mark iii         16      36

Single label. Note this returns a DataFrame with a single index.

>>> df.loc['cobra']
         max_speed  shield
mark i          12       2
mark ii          0       4

Single index tuple. Note this returns a Series.

>>> df.loc[('cobra', 'mark ii')]
max_speed    0
shield       4
Name: (cobra, mark ii), dtype: int64

Single label for row and column. Similar to passing in a tuple, this returns a Series.

>>> df.loc['cobra', 'mark i']
max_speed    12
shield        2
Name: (cobra, mark i), dtype: int64

Single tuple. Note using [[]] returns a DataFrame.

>>> df.loc[[('cobra', 'mark ii')]]
               max_speed  shield

lt(other, axis='columns', level=None)

Get Less than of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator lt).

Among flexible wrappers (eq, ne, le, lt, ge, gt) to comparison operators.

Equivalent to ==, !=, <=, <, >=, > with support to choose axis (rows or columns) and level for comparison.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 'columns') – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’).

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

Returns

Result of the comparison.

Return type

DataFrame of bool

See also

DataFrame.eq

Compare DataFrames for equality elementwise.

DataFrame.ne

Compare DataFrames for inequality elementwise.

DataFrame.le

Compare DataFrames for less than inequality or equality elementwise.

DataFrame.lt

Compare DataFrames for strictly less than inequality elementwise.

DataFrame.ge

Compare DataFrames for greater than inequality or equality elementwise.

DataFrame.gt

Compare DataFrames for strictly greater than inequality elementwise.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.lt for more. Mismatched indices will be unioned together. NaN values are considered different (i.e. NaN != NaN).

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100],
...                    'revenue': [100, 250, 300]},
...                   index=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df
   cost  revenue
A   250      100
B   150      250
C   100      300

Comparison with a scalar, using either the operator or method:

>>> df == 100
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False
>>> df.eq(100)
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False

When other is a Series, the columns of a DataFrame are aligned with the index of other and broadcast:

>>> df != pd.Series([100, 250], index=["cost", "revenue"])
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B   True    False
C  False     True

Use the method to control the broadcast axis:

>>> df.ne(pd.Series([100, 300], index=["A", "D"]), axis='index')
   cost  revenue
A  True    False
B  True     True
C  True     True
D  True     True

When comparing to an arbitrary sequence, the number of columns must match the number elements in other:

>>> df == [250, 100]
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B  False    False
C  False    False

Use the method to control the axis:

>>> df.eq([250, 250, 100], axis='index')
    cost  revenue
A   True    False
B  False     True
C   True    False

Compare to a DataFrame of different shape.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'revenue': [300, 250, 100, 150]},
...                      index=['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
>>> other
   revenue
A      300
B      250
C      100
D      150
>>> df.gt(other)
    cost  revenue
A  False    False
B  False    False
C  False     True
D  False    False

Compare to a MultiIndex by level.

>>> df_multindex = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100, 150, 300, 220],
...                              'revenue': [100, 250, 300, 200, 175, 225]},
...                             index=[['Q1', 'Q1', 'Q1', 'Q2', 'Q2', 'Q2'],
...                                    ['A', 'B', 'C', 'A', 'B', 'C']])
>>> df_multindex
      cost  revenue
Q1 A   250      100
   B   150      250
   C   100      300
Q2 A   150      200
   B   300      175
   C   220      225
>>> df.le(df_multindex, level=1)
       cost  revenue
Q1 A   True     True
   B   True     True
   C   True     True
Q2 A  False     True
   B   True    False
   C   True    False

mode(axis=0, numeric_only=False, dropna=True)

Get the mode(s) of each element along the selected axis.

The mode of a set of values is the value that appears most often. It can be multiple values.

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) –

    The axis to iterate over while searching for the mode:

    • 0 or ‘index’ : get mode of each column

    • 1 or ‘columns’ : get mode of each row.

  • numeric_only (bool, default False) – If True, only apply to numeric columns.

  • dropna (bool, default True) – Don’t consider counts of NaN/NaT.

Returns

The modes of each column or row.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

Series.mode

Return the highest frequency value in a Series.

Series.value_counts

Return the counts of values in a Series.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([('bird', 2, 2),
...                    ('mammal', 4, np.nan),
...                    ('arthropod', 8, 0),
...                    ('bird', 2, np.nan)],
...                   index=('falcon', 'horse', 'spider', 'ostrich'),
...                   columns=('species', 'legs', 'wings'))
>>> df
           species  legs  wings
falcon        bird     2    2.0
horse       mammal     4    NaN
spider   arthropod     8    0.0
ostrich       bird     2    NaN

By default, missing values are not considered, and the mode of wings are both 0 and 2. Because the resulting DataFrame has two rows, the second row of species and legs contains NaN.

>>> df.mode()
  species  legs  wings
0    bird   2.0    0.0
1     NaN   NaN    2.0

Setting dropna=False NaN values are considered and they can be the mode (like for wings).

>>> df.mode(dropna=False)
  species  legs  wings
0    bird     2    NaN

Setting numeric_only=True, only the mode of numeric columns is computed, and columns of other types are ignored.

>>> df.mode(numeric_only=True)
   legs  wings
0   2.0    0.0
1   NaN    2.0

To compute the mode over columns and not rows, use the axis parameter:

>>> df.mode(axis='columns', numeric_only=True)
           0    1
falcon   2.0  NaN
horse    4.0  NaN
spider   0.0  8.0
ostrich  2.0  NaN

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.mode for more.

mul(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100],
...                    'revenue': [100, 250, 300]},
...                   index=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df
   cost  revenue
A   250      100
B   150      250
C   100      300

Comparison with a scalar, using either the operator or method:

>>> df == 100
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False
>>> df.eq(100)
    cost  revenue
A  False     True
B  False    False
C   True    False

When other is a Series, the columns of a DataFrame are aligned with the index of other and broadcast:

>>> df != pd.Series([100, 250], index=["cost", "revenue"])
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B   True    False
C  False     True

Use the method to control the broadcast axis:

>>> df.ne(pd.Series([100, 300], index=["A", "D"]), axis='index')
   cost  revenue
A  True    False
B  True     True
C  True     True
D  True     True

When comparing to an arbitrary sequence, the number of columns must match the number elements in other:

>>> df == [250, 100]
    cost  revenue
A   True     True
B  False    False
C  False    False

Use the method to control the axis:

>>> df.eq([250, 250, 100], axis='index')
    cost  revenue
A   True    False
B  False     True
C   True    False

Compare to a DataFrame of different shape.

>>> other = pd.DataFrame({'revenue': [300, 250, 100, 150]},
...                      index=['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
>>> other
   revenue
A      300
B      250
C      100
D      150
>>> df.gt(other)
    cost  revenue
A  False    False
B  False    False
C  False     True
D  False    False

Compare to a MultiIndex by level.

>>> df_multindex = pd.DataFrame({'cost': [250, 150, 100, 150, 300, 220],
...                              'revenue': [100, 250, 300, 200, 175, 225]},

pipe(func, *args, **kwargs)

Apply func(self, *args, **kwargs).

Parameters
  • func (function) – Function to apply to the Series/DataFrame. args, and kwargs are passed into func. Alternatively a (callable, data_keyword) tuple where data_keyword is a string indicating the keyword of callable that expects the Series/DataFrame.

  • args (iterable, optional) – Positional arguments passed into func.

  • kwargs (mapping, optional) – A dictionary of keyword arguments passed into func.

Returns

object

Return type

the return type of func.

See also

DataFrame.apply

Apply a function along input axis of DataFrame.

DataFrame.applymap

Apply a function elementwise on a whole DataFrame.

Series.map

Apply a mapping correspondence on a Series.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.pipe for more. Use .pipe when chaining together functions that expect Series, DataFrames or GroupBy objects. Instead of writing

>>> func(g(h(df), arg1=a), arg2=b, arg3=c)  

You can write

>>> (df.pipe(h)
...    .pipe(g, arg1=a)
...    .pipe(func, arg2=b, arg3=c)
... )  

If you have a function that takes the data as (say) the second argument, pass a tuple indicating which keyword expects the data. For example, suppose f takes its data as arg2:

>>> (df.pipe(h)
...    .pipe(g, arg1=a)
...    .pipe((func, 'arg2'), arg1=a, arg3=c)
...  )  
pop(item)

Return item and drop from frame. Raise KeyError if not found.

Parameters

item (label) – Label of column to be popped.

Returns

quantile(q=0.5, axis=0, numeric_only=True, interpolation='linear')

Return values at the given quantile over requested axis.

Parameters
  • q (float or array-like, default 0.5 (50% quantile)) – Value between 0 <= q <= 1, the quantile(s) to compute.

  • axis ({0, 1, 'index', 'columns'}, default 0) – Equals 0 or ‘index’ for row-wise, 1 or ‘columns’ for column-wise.

  • numeric_only (bool, default True) – If False, the quantile of datetime and timedelta data will be computed as well.

  • interpolation ({'linear', 'lower', 'higher', 'midpoint', 'nearest'}) –

    This optional parameter specifies the interpolation method to use, when the desired quantile lies between two data points i and j:

    • linear: i + (j - i) * fraction, where fraction is the fractional part of the index surrounded by i and j.

    • lower: i.

    • higher: j.

    • nearest: i or j whichever is nearest.

    • midpoint: (i + j) / 2.

Returns

If q is an array, a DataFrame will be returned where the

index is q, the columns are the columns of self, and the values are the quantiles.

If q is a float, a Series will be returned where the

index is the columns of self and the values are the quantiles.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

rank(axis=0, method='average', numeric_only=None, na_option='keep', ascending=True, pct=False)

Compute numerical data ranks (1 through n) along axis.

By default, equal values are assigned a rank that is the average of the ranks of those values.

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Index to direct ranking.

  • method ({'average', 'min', 'max', 'first', 'dense'}, default 'average') –

    How to rank the group of records that have the same value (i.e. ties):

    • average: average rank of the group

    • min: lowest rank in the group

    • max: highest rank in the group

    • first: ranks assigned in order they appear in the array

    • dense: like ‘min’, but rank always increases by 1 between groups.

  • numeric_only (bool, optional) – For DataFrame objects, rank only numeric columns if set to True.

  • na_option ({'keep', 'top', 'bottom'}, default 'keep') –

    How to rank NaN values:

    • keep: assign NaN rank to NaN values

    • top: assign lowest rank to NaN values

    • bottom: assign highest rank to NaN values

  • ascending (bool, default True) – Whether or not the elements should be ranked in ascending order.

  • pct (bool, default False) – Whether or not to display the returned rankings in percentile form.

Returns

Return a Series or DataFrame with data ranks as values.

Return type

same type as caller

See also

core.groupby.GroupBy.rank

Rank of values within each group.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame(data={'Animal': ['cat', 'penguin', 'dog',
...                                    'spider', 'snake'],
...                         'Number_legs': [4, 2, 4, 8, np.nan]})
>>> df
    Animal  Number_legs
0      cat          4.0
1  penguin          2.0
2      dog          4.0
3   spider          8.0
4    snake          NaN

The following example shows how the method behaves with the above parameters:

  • default_rank: this is the default behaviour obtained without using any parameter.

  • max_rank: setting method = 'max' the records that have the same values are ranked using the highest rank (e.g.: since ‘cat’ and ‘dog’ are both in the 2nd and 3rd position, rank 3 is assigned.)

  • NA_bottom: choosing na_option = 'bottom', if there are records with NaN values they are placed at the bottom of the ranking.

  • pct_rank: when setting pct = True, the ranking is expressed as percentile rank.

>>> df['default_rank'] = df['Number_legs'].rank()
>>> df['max_rank'] = df['Number_legs'].rank(method='max')
>>> df['NA_bottom'] = df['Number_legs'].rank(na_option='bottom')
>>> df['pct_rank'] = df['Number_legs'].rank(pct=True)
>>> df

rdiv(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Get Floating division of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator rtruediv).

Equivalent to other / dataframe, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, truediv.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}) – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (float or None, default None) – Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.

Returns

Result of the arithmetic operation.

Return type

DataFrame

reindex(index=None, columns=None, copy=True, **kwargs)

Conform Series/DataFrame to new index with optional filling logic.

Places NA/NaN in locations having no value in the previous index. A new object is produced unless the new index is equivalent to the current one and copy=False.

Parameters
  • axes (keywords for) – New labels / index to conform to, should be specified using keywords. Preferably an Index object to avoid duplicating data.

  • method ({None, 'backfill'/'bfill', 'pad'/'ffill', 'nearest'}) –

    Method to use for filling holes in reindexed DataFrame. Please note: this is only applicable to DataFrames/Series with a monotonically increasing/decreasing index.

    • None (default): don’t fill gaps

    • pad / ffill: Propagate last valid observation forward to next valid.

    • backfill / bfill: Use next valid observation to fill gap.

    • nearest: Use nearest valid observations to fill gap.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Return a new object, even if the passed indexes are the same.

  • level (int or name) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (scalar, default np.NaN) – Value to use for missing values. Defaults to NaN, but can be any “compatible” value.

  • limit (int, default None) – Maximum number of consecutive elements to forward or backward fill.

  • tolerance (optional) –

    Maximum distance between original and new labels for inexact matches. The values of the index at the matching locations most satisfy the equation abs(index[indexer] - target) <= tolerance.

    Tolerance may be a scalar value, which applies the same tolerance to all values, or list-like, which applies variable tolerance per element. List-like includes list, tuple, array, Series, and must be the same size as the index and its dtype must exactly match the index’s type.

Returns

Return type

Series/DataFrame with changed index.

See also

DataFrame.set_index

Set row labels.

DataFrame.reset_index

Remove row labels or move them to new columns.

DataFrame.reindex_like

Change to same indices as other DataFrame.

Examples

DataFrame.reindex supports two calling conventions

  • (index=index_labels, columns=column_labels, ...)

  • (labels, axis={'index', 'columns'}, ...)

We highly recommend using keyword arguments to clarify your intent.

Create a dataframe with some fictional data.

>>> index = ['Firefox', 'Chrome', 'Safari', 'IE10', 'Konqueror']
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'http_status': [200, 200, 404, 404, 301],
...                   'response_time': [0.04, 0.02, 0.07, 0.08, 1.0]},
...                   index=index)
>>> df
           http_status  response_time
Firefox            200           0.04
Chrome             200           0.02
Safari             404           0.07
IE10               404           0.08
Konqueror          301           1.00

Create a new index and reindex the dataframe. By default values in the new index that do not have corresponding records in the dataframe are assigned NaN.

>>> new_index = ['Safari', 'Iceweasel', 'Comodo Dragon', 'IE10',
...              'Chrome']
>>> df.reindex(new_index)
               http_status  response_time
Safari               404.0           0.07
Iceweasel              NaN            NaN
Comodo Dragon          NaN            NaN
IE10                 404.0           0.08
Chrome               200.0           0.02

We can fill in the missing values by passing a value to the keyword fill_value. Because the index is not monotonically increasing or decreasing, we cannot use arguments to the keyword method to fill the NaN values.

>>> df.reindex(new_index, fill_value=0)
               http_status  response_time
Safari                 404           0.07
Iceweasel                0           0.00
Comodo Dragon            0           0.00
IE10                   404           0.08
Chrome                 200           0.02
>>> df.reindex(new_index, fill_value='missing')
              http_status response_time
Safari                404          0.07
Iceweasel         missing       missing
Comodo Dragon     missing       missing
IE10                  404          0.08
Chrome                200          0.02

We can also reindex the columns.

>>> df.reindex(columns=['http_status', 'user_agent'])
           http_status  user_agent
Firefox            200         NaN
Chrome             200         NaN
Safari             404         NaN
IE10               404         NaN
Konqueror          301         NaN

Or we can use “axis-style” keyword arguments

>>> df.reindex(['http_status', 'user_agent'], axis="columns")
           http_status  user_agent
Firefox            200         NaN
Chrome             200         NaN
Safari             404         NaN
IE10               404         NaN
Konqueror          301         NaN

To further illustrate the filling functionality in reindex, we will create a dataframe with a monotonically increasing index (for example, a sequence of dates).

>>> date_index = pd.date_range('1/1/2010', periods=6, freq='D')
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({"prices": [100, 101, np.nan, 100, 89, 88]},
...                    index=date_index)
>>> df2
            prices
2010-01-01   100.0
2010-01-02   101.0
2010-01-03     NaN
2010-01-04   100.0
2010-01-05    89.0
2010-01-06    88.0

Suppose we decide to expand the dataframe to cover a wider date range.

>>> date_index2 = pd.date_range('12/29/2009', periods=10, freq='D')
>>> df2.reindex(date_index2)
            prices
2009-12-29     NaN
2009-12-30     NaN
2009-12-31     NaN
2010-01-01   100.0
2010-01-02   101.0
2010-01-03     NaN
2010-01-04   100.0
2010-01-05    89.0
2010-01-06    88.0
2010-01-07     NaN

The index entries that did not have a value in the original data frame (for example, ‘2009-12-29’) are by default filled with NaN. If desired, we can fill in the missing values using one of several options.

For example, to back-propagate the last valid value to fill the NaN values, pass bfill as an argument to the method keyword.

>>> df2.reindex(date_index2, method='bfill')
            prices
2009-12-29   100.0
2009-12-30   100.0
2009-12-31   100.0
2010-01-01   100.0
2010-01-02   101.0
2010-01-03     NaN
2010-01-04   100.0
2010-01-05    89.0
2010-01-06    88.0
2010-01-07     NaN

Please note that the NaN value present in the original dataframe (at index value 2010-01-03) will not be filled by any of the value propagation schemes. This is because filling while reindexing does not look at dataframe values, but only compares the original and desired indexes. If you do want to fill in the NaN values present in the original dataframe, use the fillna() method.

See the user guide for more.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.reindex for more.

reindex_like(other, method=None, copy=True, limit=None, tolerance=None)

Return an object with matching indices as other object.

Conform the object to the same index on all axes. Optional filling logic, placing NaN in locations having no value in the previous index. A new object is produced unless the new index is equivalent to the current one and copy=False.

Parameters
  • other (Object of the same data type) – Its row and column indices are used to define the new indices of this object.

  • method ({None, 'backfill'/'bfill', 'pad'/'ffill', 'nearest'}) –

    Method to use for filling holes in reindexed DataFrame. Please note: this is only applicable to DataFrames/Series with a monotonically increasing/decreasing index.

    • None (default): don’t fill gaps

    • pad / ffill: propagate last valid observation forward to next valid

    • backfill / bfill: use next valid observation to fill gap

    • nearest: use nearest valid observations to fill gap.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Return a new object, even if the passed indexes are the same.

  • limit (int, default None) – Maximum number of consecutive labels to fill for inexact matches.

  • tolerance (optional) –

    Maximum distance between original and new labels for inexact matches. The values of the index at the matching locations must satisfy the equation abs(index[indexer] - target) <= tolerance.

    Tolerance may be a scalar value, which applies the same tolerance to all values, or list-like, which applies variable tolerance per element. List-like includes list, tuple, array, Series, and must be the same size as the index and its dtype must exactly match the index’s type.

Returns

Same type as caller, but with changed indices on each axis.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.set_index

Set row labels.

DataFrame.reset_index

Remove row labels or move them to new columns.

DataFrame.reindex

Change to new indices or expand indices.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.reindex_like for more. Same as calling .reindex(index=other.index, columns=other.columns,...).

rename_axis(mapper=None, index=None, columns=None, axis=None, copy=True, inplace=False)

Set the name of the axis for the index or columns.

Parameters
  • mapper (scalar, list-like, optional) – Value to set the axis name attribute.

  • index (scalar, list-like, dict-like or function, optional) –

    A scalar, list-like, dict-like or functions transformations to apply to that axis’ values. Note that the columns parameter is not allowed if the object is a Series. This parameter only apply for DataFrame type objects.

    Use either mapper and axis to specify the axis to target with mapper, or index and/or columns.

  • columns (scalar, list-like, dict-like or function, optional) –

    A scalar, list-like, dict-like or functions transformations to apply to that axis’ values. Note that the columns parameter is not allowed if the object is a Series. This parameter only apply for DataFrame type objects.

    Use either mapper and axis to specify the axis to target with mapper, or index and/or columns.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – The axis to rename.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Also copy underlying data.

  • inplace (bool, default False) – Modifies the object directly, instead of creating a new Series or DataFrame.

Returns

The same type as the caller or None if inplace=True.

Return type

Series, DataFrame, or None

See also

Series.rename

Alter Series index labels or name.

DataFrame.rename

Alter DataFrame index labels or name.

Index.rename

Set new names on index.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.rename_axis for more. DataFrame.rename_axis supports two calling conventions

  • (index=index_mapper, columns=columns_mapper, ...)

  • (mapper, axis={'index', 'columns'}, ...)

The first calling convention will only modify the names of the index and/or the names of the Index object that is the columns. In this case, the parameter copy is ignored.

The second calling convention will modify the names of the corresponding index if mapper is a list or a scalar. However, if mapper is dict-like or a function, it will use the deprecated behavior of modifying the axis labels.

We highly recommend using keyword arguments to clarify your intent.

reorder_levels(order, axis=0)

Rearrange index levels using input order. May not drop or duplicate levels.

Parameters
  • order (list of int or list of str) – List representing new level order. Reference level by number (position) or by key (label).

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Where to reorder levels.

Returns

Return type

DataFrame

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.reorder_levels for more.

resample(rule, axis=0, closed=None, label=None, convention='start', kind=None, loffset=None, base: Optional[int] = None, on=None, level=None, origin: Union[str, Timestamp, datetime.datetime, numpy.datetime64, int, numpy.int64, float] = 'start_day', offset: Optional[Union[Timedelta, datetime.timedelta, numpy.timedelta64, int, numpy.int64, float, str]] = None)

Resample time-series data.

Convenience method for frequency conversion and resampling of time series. The object must have a datetime-like index (DatetimeIndex, PeriodIndex, or TimedeltaIndex), or the caller must pass the label of a datetime-like series/index to the on/level keyword parameter.

Parameters
  • rule (DateOffset, Timedelta or str) – The offset string or object representing target conversion.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – Which axis to use for up- or down-sampling. For Series this will default to 0, i.e. along the rows. Must be DatetimeIndex, TimedeltaIndex or PeriodIndex.

  • closed ({'right', 'left'}, default None) – Which side of bin interval is closed. The default is ‘left’ for all frequency offsets except for ‘M’, ‘A’, ‘Q’, ‘BM’, ‘BA’, ‘BQ’, and ‘W’ which all have a default of ‘right’.

  • label ({'right', 'left'}, default None) – Which bin edge label to label bucket with. The default is ‘left’ for all frequency offsets except for ‘M’, ‘A’, ‘Q’, ‘BM’, ‘BA’, ‘BQ’, and ‘W’ which all have a default of ‘right’.

  • convention ({'start', 'end', 's', 'e'}, default 'start') – For PeriodIndex only, controls whether to use the start or end of rule.

  • kind ({'timestamp', 'period'}, optional, default None) – Pass ‘timestamp’ to convert the resulting index to a DateTimeIndex or ‘period’ to convert it to a PeriodIndex. By default the input representation is retained.

  • loffset (timedelta, default None) –

    Adjust the resampled time labels.

    Deprecated since version 1.1.0: You should add the loffset to the df.index after the resample. See below.

  • base (int, default 0) –

    For frequencies that evenly subdivide 1 day, the “origin” of the aggregated intervals. For example, for ‘5min’ frequency, base could range from 0 through 4. Defaults to 0.

    Deprecated since version 1.1.0: The new arguments that you should use are ‘offset’ or ‘origin’.

  • on (str, optional) – For a DataFrame, column to use instead of index for resampling. Column must be datetime-like.

  • level (str or int, optional) – For a MultiIndex, level (name or number) to use for resampling. level must be datetime-like.

  • origin ({'epoch', 'start', 'start_day', 'end', 'end_day'}, Timestamp) –

    or str, default ‘start_day’ The timestamp on which to adjust the grouping. The timezone of origin must match the timezone of the index. If a timestamp is not used, these values are also supported:

    • ’epoch’: origin is 1970-01-01

    • ’start’: origin is the first value of the timeseries

    • ’start_day’: origin is the first day at midnight of the timeseries

    New in version 1.1.0.

    • ’end’: origin is the last value of the timeseries

    • ’end_day’: origin is the ceiling midnight of the last day

    New in version 1.3.0.

  • offset (Timedelta or str, default is None) –

    An offset timedelta added to the origin.

    New in version 1.1.0.

Returns

Resampler object.

Return type

pandas.core.Resampler

Examples

Start by creating a series with 9 one minute timestamps.

>>> index = pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=9, freq='T')
>>> series = pd.Series(range(9), index=index)
>>> series
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0
2000-01-01 00:01:00    1
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2
2000-01-01 00:03:00    3
2000-01-01 00:04:00    4
2000-01-01 00:05:00    5
2000-01-01 00:06:00    6
2000-01-01 00:07:00    7
2000-01-01 00:08:00    8
Freq: T, dtype: int64

Downsample the series into 3 minute bins and sum the values of the timestamps falling into a bin.

>>> series.resample('3T').sum()
2000-01-01 00:00:00     3
2000-01-01 00:03:00    12
2000-01-01 00:06:00    21
Freq: 3T, dtype: int64

Downsample the series into 3 minute bins as above, but label each bin using the right edge instead of the left. Please note that the value in the bucket used as the label is not included in the bucket, which it labels. For example, in the original series the bucket 2000-01-01 00:03:00 contains the value 3, but the summed value in the resampled bucket with the label 2000-01-01 00:03:00 does not include 3 (if it did, the summed value would be 6, not 3). To include this value close the right side of the bin interval as illustrated in the example below this one.

>>> series.resample('3T', label='right').sum()
2000-01-01 00:03:00     3
2000-01-01 00:06:00    12
2000-01-01 00:09:00    21
Freq: 3T, dtype: int64

Downsample the series into 3 minute bins as above, but close the right side of the bin interval.

>>> series.resample('3T', label='right', closed='right').sum()
2000-01-01 00:00:00     0
2000-01-01 00:03:00     6
2000-01-01 00:06:00    15
2000-01-01 00:09:00    15
Freq: 3T, dtype: int64

Upsample the series into 30 second bins.

>>> series.resample('30S').asfreq()[0:5]   # Select first 5 rows
2000-01-01 00:00:00   0.0
2000-01-01 00:00:30   NaN
2000-01-01 00:01:00   1.0
2000-01-01 00:01:30   NaN
2000-01-01 00:02:00   2.0
Freq: 30S, dtype: float64

Upsample the series into 30 second bins and fill the NaN values using the pad method.

>>> series.resample('30S').pad()[0:5]
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0
2000-01-01 00:00:30    0
2000-01-01 00:01:00    1
2000-01-01 00:01:30    1
2000-01-01 00:02:00    2
Freq: 30S, dtype: int64

Upsample the series into 30 second bins and fill the NaN values using the bfill method.

>>> series.resample('30S').bfill()[0:5]
2000-01-01 00:00:00    0
2000-01-01 00:00:30    1
2000-01-01 00:01:00    1

2000-01-01 00:02:00    2
Freq: 30S, dtype: int64

Pass a custom function via apply

>>> def custom_resampler(arraylike):
...     return np.sum(arraylike) + 5
...
>>> series.resample('3T').apply(custom_resampler)
2000-01-01 00:00:00     8

For a Series with a PeriodIndex, the keyword convention can be used to control whether to use the start or end of rule.

Resample a year by quarter using ‘start’ convention. Values are assigned to the first quarter of the period.

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2], index=pd.period_range('2012-01-01',
...                                             freq='A',
...                                             periods=2))
>>> s
2012    1
2013    2
Freq: A-DEC, dtype: int64

2012Q2    NaN
2012Q3    NaN
2012Q4    NaN
2013Q1    2.0
2013Q2    NaN
2013Q3    NaN
2013Q4    NaN
Freq: Q-DEC, dtype: float64

Resample quarters by month using ‘end’ convention. Values are assigned to the last month of the period.

>>> q = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4], index=pd.period_range('2018-01-01',
...                                                   freq='Q',
...                                                   periods=4))
>>> q

2018Q2    2
2018Q3    3
2018Q4    4

For DataFrame objects, the keyword on can be used to specify the column instead of the index for resampling.

>>> d = {'price': [10, 11, 9, 13, 14, 18, 17, 19],
...      'volume': [50, 60, 40, 100, 50, 100, 40, 50]}
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(d)
>>> df['week_starting'] = pd.date_range('01/01/2018',
...                                     periods=8,
...                                     freq='W')
>>> df
   price  volume week_starting
0     10      50    2018-01-07
1     11      60    2018-01-14

>>> df.resample('M', on='week_starting').mean()
               price  volume

2018-01-31     10.75    62.5
2018-02-28     17.00    60.0

For a DataFrame with MultiIndex, the keyword level can be used to specify on which level the resampling needs to take place.

>>> days = pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=4, freq='D')
>>> d2 = {'price': [10, 11, 9, 13, 14, 18, 17, 19],
...       'volume': [50, 60, 40, 100, 50, 100, 40, 50]}
>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame(
...     d2,
...     index=pd.MultiIndex.from_product(
...         [days, ['morning', 'afternoon']]
...     )
... )
>>> df2

2000-01-01 morning       10      50
           afternoon     11      60
2000-01-02 morning        9      40

2000-01-03 morning       14      50
           afternoon     18     100
2000-01-04 morning       17      40
           afternoon     19      50
>>> df2.resample('D', level=0).sum()
            price  volume
2000-01-01     21     110
2000-01-02     22     140
2000-01-03     32     150
2000-01-04     36      90

If you want to adjust the start of the bins based on a fixed timestamp:

>>> start, end = '2000-10-01 23:30:00', '2000-10-02 00:30:00'
>>> rng = pd.date_range(start, end, freq='7min')
>>> ts = pd.Series(np.arange(len(rng)) * 3, index=rng)
>>> ts
2000-10-01 23:30:00     0
2000-10-01 23:37:00     3

If you want to adjust the start of the bins with an offset Timedelta, the two following lines are equivalent:

>>> ts.resample('17min', origin='start').sum()
2000-10-01 23:30:00     9
2000-10-01 23:47:00    21

2000-10-02 00:21:00    24
Freq: 17T, dtype: int64

If you want to take the largest Timestamp as the end of the bins:

>>> ts.resample('17min', origin='end').sum()
2000-10-01 23:35:00     0
2000-10-01 23:52:00    18

2000-10-02 00:26:00    63
Freq: 17T, dtype: int64

In contrast with the start_day, you can use end_day to take the ceiling midnight of the largest Timestamp as the end of the bins and drop the bins not containing data:

>>> ts.resample('17min', origin='end_day').sum()
2000-10-01 23:38:00     3
2000-10-01 23:55:00    15

2000-10-02 00:29:00    45
Freq: 17T, dtype: int64

To replace the use of the deprecated base argument, you can now use offset, in this example it is equivalent to have base=2:

>>> ts.resample('17min', offset='2min').sum()
2000-10-01 23:16:00     0
2000-10-01 23:33:00     9

2000-10-02 00:24:00    24
Freq: 17T, dtype: int64

To replace the use of the deprecated loffset argument:

>>> from pandas.tseries.frequencies import to_offset
>>> loffset = '19min'
>>> ts_out = ts.resample('17min').sum()
>>> ts_out.index = ts_out.index + to_offset(loffset)
>>> ts_out

reset_index(level=None, drop=False, inplace=False, col_level=0, col_fill='')

Reset the index, or a level of it.

Reset the index of the DataFrame, and use the default one instead. If the DataFrame has a MultiIndex, this method can remove one or more levels.

Parameters
  • level (int, str, tuple, or list, default None) – Only remove the given levels from the index. Removes all levels by default.

  • drop (bool, default False) – Do not try to insert index into dataframe columns. This resets the index to the default integer index.

  • inplace (bool, default False) – Modify the DataFrame in place (do not create a new object).

  • col_level (int or str, default 0) – If the columns have multiple levels, determines which level the labels are inserted into. By default it is inserted into the first level.

  • col_fill (object, default '') – If the columns have multiple levels, determines how the other levels are named. If None then the index name is repeated.

Returns

DataFrame with the new index or None if inplace=True.

Return type

DataFrame or None

See also

DataFrame.set_index

Opposite of reset_index.

DataFrame.reindex

Change to new indices or expand indices.

DataFrame.reindex_like

Change to same indices as other DataFrame.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([('bird', 389.0),
...                    ('bird', 24.0),
...                    ('mammal', 80.5),
...                    ('mammal', np.nan)],
...                   index=['falcon', 'parrot', 'lion', 'monkey'],
...                   columns=('class', 'max_speed'))
>>> df
         class  max_speed
falcon    bird      389.0
parrot    bird       24.0
lion    mammal       80.5
monkey  mammal        NaN

When we reset the index, the old index is added as a column, and a new sequential index is used:

>>> df.reset_index()
    index   class  max_speed
0  falcon    bird      389.0
1  parrot    bird       24.0
2    lion  mammal       80.5
3  monkey  mammal        NaN

We can use the drop parameter to avoid the old index being added as a column:

>>> df.reset_index(drop=True)
    class  max_speed
0    bird      389.0
1    bird       24.0
2  mammal       80.5
3  mammal        NaN

You can also use reset_index with MultiIndex.

>>> index = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('bird', 'falcon'),
...                                    ('bird', 'parrot'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'lion'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'monkey')],
...                                   names=['class', 'name'])
>>> columns = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('speed', 'max'),
...                                      ('species', 'type')])
>>> df = pd.DataFrame([(389.0, 'fly'),
...                    ( 24.0, 'fly'),
...                    ( 80.5, 'run'),
...                    (np.nan, 'jump')],
...                   index=index,
...                   columns=columns)
>>> df
               speed species
                 max    type
class  name
bird   falcon  389.0     fly
       parrot   24.0     fly
mammal lion     80.5     run
       monkey    NaN    jump

If the index has multiple levels, we can reset a subset of them:

>>> df.reset_index(level='class')
         class  speed species
                  max    type
name
falcon    bird  389.0     fly
parrot    bird   24.0     fly
lion    mammal   80.5     run
monkey  mammal    NaN    jump

If we are not dropping the index, by default, it is placed in the top level. We can place it in another level:

>>> df.reset_index(level='class', col_level=1)
                speed species
         class    max    type
name
falcon    bird  389.0     fly
parrot    bird   24.0     fly
lion    mammal   80.5     run
monkey  mammal    NaN    jump

When the index is inserted under another level, we can specify under which one with the parameter col_fill:

>>> df.reset_index(level='class', col_level=1, col_fill='species')
              species  speed species
                class    max    type
name
falcon           bird  389.0     fly
parrot           bird   24.0     fly
lion           mammal   80.5     run
monkey         mammal    NaN    jump

If we specify a nonexistent level for col_fill, it is created:

>>> df.reset_index(level='class', col_level=1, col_fill='genus')
                genus  speed species
                class    max    type
name
falcon           bird  389.0     fly
parrot           bird   24.0     fly
lion           mammal   80.5     run
monkey         mammal    NaN    jump

rolling(window, min_periods=None, center=False, win_type=None, on=None, axis=0, closed=None, method='single')

Provide rolling window calculations.

Parameters
  • window (int, offset, or BaseIndexer subclass) –

    Size of the moving window. This is the number of observations used for calculating the statistic. Each window will be a fixed size.

    If its an offset then this will be the time period of each window. Each window will be a variable sized based on the observations included in the time-period. This is only valid for datetimelike indexes.

    If a BaseIndexer subclass is passed, calculates the window boundaries based on the defined get_window_bounds method. Additional rolling keyword arguments, namely min_periods, center, and closed will be passed to get_window_bounds.

  • min_periods (int, default None) – Minimum number of observations in window required to have a value (otherwise result is NA). For a window that is specified by an offset, min_periods will default to 1. Otherwise, min_periods will default to the size of the window.

  • center (bool, default False) – Set the labels at the center of the window.

  • win_type (str, default None) – Provide a window type. If None, all points are evenly weighted. See the notes below for further information.

  • on (str, optional) – For a DataFrame, a datetime-like column or Index level on which to calculate the rolling window, rather than the DataFrame’s index. Provided integer column is ignored and excluded from result since an integer index is not used to calculate the rolling window.

  • axis (int or str, default 0) –

  • closed (str, default None) –

    Make the interval closed on the ‘right’, ‘left’, ‘both’ or ‘neither’ endpoints. Defaults to ‘right’.

    Changed in version 1.2.0: The closed parameter with fixed windows is now supported.

  • method (str {'single', 'table'}, default 'single') –

    Execute the rolling operation per single column or row ('single') or over the entire object ('table').

    This argument is only implemented when specifying engine='numba' in the method call.

    New in version 1.3.0.

Returns

Return type

a Window or Rolling sub-classed for the particular operation

See also

expanding

Provides expanding transformations.

ewm

Provides exponential weighted functions.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.rolling for more. By default, the result is set to the right edge of the window. This can be changed to the center of the window by setting center=True.

To learn more about the offsets & frequency strings, please see this link.

If win_type=None, all points are evenly weighted; otherwise, win_type can accept a string of any scipy.signal window function.

Certain Scipy window types require additional parameters to be passed in the aggregation function. The additional parameters must match the keywords specified in the Scipy window type method signature. Please see the third example below on how to add the additional parameters.

round(decimals=0, *args, **kwargs)

Round a DataFrame to a variable number of decimal places.

Parameters
  • decimals (int, dict, Series) – Number of decimal places to round each column to. If an int is given, round each column to the same number of places. Otherwise dict and Series round to variable numbers of places. Column names should be in the keys if decimals is a dict-like, or in the index if decimals is a Series. Any columns not included in decimals will be left as is. Elements of decimals which are not columns of the input will be ignored.

  • *args – Additional keywords have no effect but might be accepted for compatibility with numpy.

  • **kwargs – Additional keywords have no effect but might be accepted for compatibility with numpy.

Returns

A DataFrame with the affected columns rounded to the specified number of decimal places.

Return type

sample(n=None, frac=None, replace=False, weights=None, random_state=None, axis=None, ignore_index=False)

Return a random sample of items from an axis of object.

You can use random_state for reproducibility.

Parameters
  • n (int, optional) – Number of items from axis to return. Cannot be used with frac. Default = 1 if frac = None.

  • frac (float, optional) – Fraction of axis items to return. Cannot be used with n.

  • replace (bool, default False) – Allow or disallow sampling of the same row more than once.

  • weights (str or ndarray-like, optional) – Default ‘None’ results in equal probability weighting. If passed a Series, will align with target object on index. Index values in weights not found in sampled object will be ignored and index values in sampled object not in weights will be assigned weights of zero. If called on a DataFrame, will accept the name of a column when axis = 0. Unless weights are a Series, weights must be same length as axis being sampled. If weights do not sum to 1, they will be normalized to sum to 1. Missing values in the weights column will be treated as zero. Infinite values not allowed.

  • random_state (int, array-like, BitGenerator, np.random.RandomState, optional) –

    If int, array-like, or BitGenerator (NumPy>=1.17), seed for random number generator If np.random.RandomState, use as numpy RandomState object.

    Changed in version 1.1.0: array-like and BitGenerator (for NumPy>=1.17) object now passed to np.random.RandomState() as seed

  • axis ({0 or ‘index’, 1 or ‘columns’, None}, default None) – Axis to sample. Accepts axis number or name. Default is stat axis for given data type (0 for Series and DataFrames).

  • ignore_index (bool, default False) –

    If True, the resulting index will be labeled 0, 1, …, n - 1.

    New in version 1.3.0.

Returns

A new object of same type as caller containing n items randomly sampled from the caller object.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

DataFrameGroupBy.sample

Generates random samples from each group of a DataFrame object.

SeriesGroupBy.sample

Generates random samples from each group of a Series object.

numpy.random.choice

Generates a random sample from a given 1-D numpy array.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.sample for more. If frac > 1, replacement should be set to True.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'num_legs': [2, 4, 8, 0],
...                    'num_wings': [2, 0, 0, 0],
...                    'num_specimen_seen': [10, 2, 1, 8]},

fish           0          0                  8

Extract 3 random elements from the Series df['num_legs']: Note that we use random_state to ensure the reproducibility of the examples.

>>> df['num_legs'].sample(n=3, random_state=1)
fish      0
spider    8
falcon    2
Name: num_legs, dtype: int64

A random 50% sample of the DataFrame with replacement:

>>> df.sample(frac=0.5, replace=True, random_state=1)
      num_legs  num_wings  num_specimen_seen
dog          4          0                  2
fish         0          0                  8

dog            4          0                  2

Using a DataFrame column as weights. Rows with larger value in the num_specimen_seen column are more likely to be sampled.

>>> df.sample(n=2, weights='num_specimen_seen', random_state=1)
        num_legs  num_wings  num_specimen_seen

sem(axis=None, skipna=None, level=None, ddof=1, numeric_only=None, **kwargs)

Return unbiased standard error of the mean over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1 by default. This can be changed using the ddof argument

Parameters
  • axis ({index (0), columns (1)}) –

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values. If an entire row/column is NA, the result will be NA.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • ddof (int, default 1) – Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

  • numeric_only (bool, default None) – Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

Returns

Return type

Series or DataFrame (if level specified)

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.sem for more. To have the same behaviour as numpy.std, use ddof=0 (instead of the default ddof=1)

set_axis(labels, axis=0, inplace=False)

Assign desired index to given axis.

Indexes for column or row labels can be changed by assigning a list-like or Index.

Parameters
  • labels (list-like, Index) – The values for the new index.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – The axis to update. The value 0 identifies the rows, and 1 identifies the columns.

  • inplace (bool, default False) – Whether to return a new DataFrame instance.

Returns

renamed – An object of type DataFrame or None if inplace=True.

Return type

DataFrame or None

See also

DataFrame.rename_axis

Alter the name of the index or columns. Examples ——– >>> df = pd.DataFrame({“A”: [1, 2, 3], “B”: [4, 5, 6]}) Change the row labels. >>> df.set_axis([‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’], axis=’index’) A B a 1 4 b 2 5 c 3 6 Change the column labels. >>> df.set_axis([‘I’, ‘II’], axis=’columns’) I II 0 1 4 1 2 5 2 3 6 Now, update the labels inplace. >>> df.set_axis([‘i’, ‘ii’], axis=’columns’, inplace=True) >>> df i ii 0 1 4 1 2 5 2 3 6

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.set_axis for more.

set_flags(*, copy: modin.pandas.base.BasePandasDataset.bool = False, allows_duplicate_labels: Optional[modin.pandas.base.BasePandasDataset.bool] = None)

Return a new object with updated flags.

Parameters

allows_duplicate_labels (bool, optional) – Whether the returned object allows duplicate labels.

Returns

The same type as the caller.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

See also

DataFrame.attrs

Global metadata applying to this dataset.

DataFrame.flags

Global flags applying to this object.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.set_flags for more. This method returns a new object that’s a view on the same data as the input. Mutating the input or the output values will be reflected in the other.

This method is intended to be used in method chains.

“Flags” differ from “metadata”. Flags reflect properties of the pandas object (the Series or DataFrame). Metadata refer to properties of the dataset, and should be stored in DataFrame.attrs.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2]})
>>> df.flags.allows_duplicate_labels
True
>>> df2 = df.set_flags(allows_duplicate_labels=False)
>>> df2.flags.allows_duplicate_labels
False
shift(periods=1, freq=None, axis=0, fill_value=NoDefault.no_default)

Shift index by desired number of periods with an optional time freq.

When freq is not passed, shift the index without realigning the data. If freq is passed (in this case, the index must be date or datetime, or it will raise a NotImplementedError), the index will be increased using the periods and the freq. freq can be inferred when specified as “infer” as long as either freq or inferred_freq attribute is set in the index.

Parameters
  • periods (int) – Number of periods to shift. Can be positive or negative.

  • freq (DateOffset, tseries.offsets, timedelta, or str, optional) – Offset to use from the tseries module or time rule (e.g. ‘EOM’). If freq is specified then the index values are shifted but the data is not realigned. That is, use freq if you would like to extend the index when shifting and preserve the original data. If freq is specified as “infer” then it will be inferred from the freq or inferred_freq attributes of the index. If neither of those attributes exist, a ValueError is thrown.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns', None}, default None) – Shift direction.

  • fill_value (object, optional) –

    The scalar value to use for newly introduced missing values. the default depends on the dtype of self. For numeric data, np.nan is used. For datetime, timedelta, or period data, etc. NaT is used. For extension dtypes, self.dtype.na_value is used.

    Changed in version 1.1.0.

Returns

Copy of input object, shifted.

Return type

DataFrame

See also

Index.shift

Shift values of Index.

DatetimeIndex.shift

Shift values of DatetimeIndex.

PeriodIndex.shift

Shift values of PeriodIndex.

tshift

Shift the time index, using the index’s frequency if available.

skew(axis=None, skipna=None, level=None, numeric_only=None, **kwargs)

Return unbiased skew over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1.

Parameters
  • axis ({index (0), columns (1)}) – Axis for the function to be applied on.

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values when computing the result.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • numeric_only (bool, default None) – Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments to be passed to the function.

sort_index(axis=0, level=None, ascending=True, inplace=False, kind='quicksort', na_position='last', sort_remaining=True, ignore_index: modin.pandas.base.BasePandasDataset.bool = False, key: Optional[Callable[[Index], Union[Index, ExtensionArray, numpy.ndarray, Series]]] = None)

Sort object by labels (along an axis).

Returns a new DataFrame sorted by label if inplace argument is False, otherwise updates the original DataFrame and returns None.

Parameters
  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – The axis along which to sort. The value 0 identifies the rows, and 1 identifies the columns.

  • level (int or level name or list of ints or list of level names) – If not None, sort on values in specified index level(s).

  • ascending (bool or list-like of bools, default True) – Sort ascending vs. descending. When the index is a MultiIndex the sort direction can be controlled for each level individually.

  • inplace (bool, default False) – If True, perform operation in-place.

  • kind ({'quicksort', 'mergesort', 'heapsort', 'stable'}, default 'quicksort') – Choice of sorting algorithm. See also numpy.sort() for more information. mergesort and stable are the only stable algorithms. For DataFrames, this option is only applied when sorting on a single column or label.

  • na_position ({'first', 'last'}, default 'last') – Puts NaNs at the beginning if first; last puts NaNs at the end. Not implemented for MultiIndex.

  • sort_remaining (bool, default True) – If True and sorting by level and index is multilevel, sort by other levels too (in order) after sorting by specified level.

  • ignore_index (bool, default False) –

    If True, the resulting axis will be labeled 0, 1, …, n - 1.

    New in version 1.0.0.

  • key (callable, optional) –

    If not None, apply the key function to the index values before sorting. This is similar to the key argument in the builtin sorted() function, with the notable difference that this key function should be vectorized. It should expect an Index and return an Index of the same shape. For MultiIndex inputs, the key is applied per level.

    New in version 1.1.0.

Returns

The original DataFrame sorted by the labels or None if inplace=True.

Return type

DataFrame or None

See also

Series.sort_index

Sort Series by the index.

DataFrame.sort_values

Sort DataFrame by the value.

Series.sort_values

Sort Series by the value.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], index=[100, 29, 234, 1, 150],
...                   columns=['A'])
>>> df.sort_index()
     A
1    4
29   2
100  1
150  5
234  3

By default, it sorts in ascending order, to sort in descending order, use ascending=False

>>> df.sort_index(ascending=False)
     A
234  3
150  5
100  1
29   2
1    4

A key function can be specified which is applied to the index before sorting. For a MultiIndex this is applied to each level separately.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"a": [1, 2, 3, 4]}, index=['A', 'b', 'C', 'd'])
>>> df.sort_index(key=lambda x: x.str.lower())
   a
A  1
b  2
C  3
d  4

std(axis=None, skipna=None, level=None, ddof=1, numeric_only=None, **kwargs)

Return sample standard deviation over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1 by default. This can be changed using the ddof argument

Parameters
  • axis ({index (0), columns (1)}) –

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values. If an entire row/column is NA, the result will be NA.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • ddof (int, default 1) – Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

  • numeric_only (bool, default None) – Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

Returns

Return type

Series or DataFrame (if level specified)

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.std for more. To have the same behaviour as numpy.std, use ddof=0 (instead of the default ddof=1)

sub(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Get Subtraction of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator sub).

Equivalent to dataframe - other, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, rsub.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}) – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (float or None, default None) – Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.

Returns

Result of the arithmetic operation.

Return type

DataFrame

swaplevel(i=- 2, j=- 1, axis=0)

Swap levels i and j in a MultiIndex.

Default is to swap the two innermost levels of the index.

Parameters
  • i (int or str) – Levels of the indices to be swapped. Can pass level name as string.

  • j (int or str) – Levels of the indices to be swapped. Can pass level name as string.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – The axis to swap levels on. 0 or ‘index’ for row-wise, 1 or ‘columns’ for column-wise.

Returns

  • DataFrame – DataFrame with levels swapped in MultiIndex.

  • Examples – ——– >>> df = pd.DataFrame( … {“Grade”: [“A”, “B”, “A”, “C”]}, … index=[ … [“Final exam”, “Final exam”, “Coursework”, “Coursework”], … [“History”, “Geography”, “History”, “Geography”], … [“January”, “February”, “March”, “April”], … ], … ) >>> df

    Grade

    Final exam History January A

    Geography February B

    Coursework History March A

    Geography April C

    In the following example, we will swap the levels of the indices. Here, we will swap the levels column-wise, but levels can be swapped row-wise in a similar manner. Note that column-wise is the default behaviour. By not supplying any arguments for i and j, we swap the last and second to last indices.

    >>> df.swaplevel()
                                        Grade
    Final exam  January     History         A
                February    Geography       B
    Coursework  March       History         A
                April       Geography       C
    

    By supplying one argument, we can choose which index to swap the last index with. We can for example swap the first index with the last one as follows.

    >>> df.swaplevel(0)
                                        Grade
    January     History     Final exam      A
    February    Geography   Final exam      B
    March       History     Coursework      A
    April       Geography   Coursework      C
    

    We can also define explicitly which indices we want to swap by supplying values for both i and j. Here, we for example swap the first and second indices.

    >>> df.swaplevel(0, 1)
                                        Grade
    History     Final exam  January         A
    Geography   Final exam  February        B
    History     Coursework  March           A
    Geography   Coursework  April           C
    

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.swaplevel for more.

tail(n=5)

Return the last n rows.

This function returns last n rows from the object based on position. It is useful for quickly verifying data, for example, after sorting or appending rows.

For negative values of n, this function returns all rows except the first n rows, equivalent to df[n:].

Parameters

n (int, default 5) – Number of rows to select.

Returns

The last n rows of the caller object.

Return type

type of caller

See also

DataFrame.head

The first n rows of the caller object.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'animal': ['alligator', 'bee', 'falcon', 'lion',
...                    'monkey', 'parrot', 'shark', 'whale', 'zebra']})
>>> df
      animal
0  alligator
1        bee
2     falcon
3       lion
4     monkey
5     parrot
6      shark
7      whale
8      zebra

Viewing the last 5 lines

>>> df.tail()
   animal
4  monkey
5  parrot
6   shark
7   whale
8   zebra

Viewing the last n lines (three in this case)

>>> df.tail(3)
  animal
6  shark
7  whale
8  zebra

For negative values of n

>>> df.tail(-3)
   animal
3    lion
4  monkey
5  parrot
6   shark
7   whale
8   zebra

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.tail for more.

take(indices, axis=0, is_copy=None, **kwargs)

Return the elements in the given positional indices along an axis.

This means that we are not indexing according to actual values in the index attribute of the object. We are indexing according to the actual position of the element in the object.

Parameters
  • indices (array-like) – An array of ints indicating which positions to take.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns', None}, default 0) – The axis on which to select elements. 0 means that we are selecting rows, 1 means that we are selecting columns.

  • is_copy (bool) –

    Before pandas 1.0, is_copy=False can be specified to ensure that the return value is an actual copy. Starting with pandas 1.0, take always returns a copy, and the keyword is therefore deprecated.

    Deprecated since version 1.0.0.

  • **kwargs – For compatibility with numpy.take(). Has no effect on the output.

Returns

taken – An array-like containing the elements taken from the object.

Return type

same type as caller

See also

DataFrame.loc

Select a subset of a DataFrame by labels.

DataFrame.iloc

Select a subset of a DataFrame by positions.

numpy.take

Take elements from an array along an axis.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([('falcon', 'bird', 389.0),
...                    ('parrot', 'bird', 24.0),
...                    ('lion', 'mammal', 80.5),
...                    ('monkey', 'mammal', np.nan)],
...                   columns=['name', 'class', 'max_speed'],
...                   index=[0, 2, 3, 1])
>>> df
     name   class  max_speed
0  falcon    bird      389.0
2  parrot    bird       24.0
3    lion  mammal       80.5
1  monkey  mammal        NaN

Take elements at positions 0 and 3 along the axis 0 (default).

Note how the actual indices selected (0 and 1) do not correspond to our selected indices 0 and 3. That’s because we are selecting the 0th and 3rd rows, not rows whose indices equal 0 and 3.

>>> df.take([0, 3])
     name   class  max_speed
0  falcon    bird      389.0
1  monkey  mammal        NaN

Take elements at indices 1 and 2 along the axis 1 (column selection).

>>> df.take([1, 2], axis=1)
    class  max_speed
0    bird      389.0
2    bird       24.0
3  mammal       80.5
1  mammal        NaN

We may take elements using negative integers for positive indices, starting from the end of the object, just like with Python lists.

>>> df.take([-1, -2])
     name   class  max_speed
1  monkey  mammal        NaN
3    lion  mammal       80.5

Notes

to_clipboard(excel=True, sep=None, **kwargs)

Copy object to the system clipboard.

Write a text representation of object to the system clipboard. This can be pasted into Excel, for example.

Parameters
  • excel (bool, default True) –

    Produce output in a csv format for easy pasting into excel.

    • True, use the provided separator for csv pasting.

    • False, write a string representation of the object to the clipboard.

  • sep (str, default '\t') – Field delimiter.

  • **kwargs – These parameters will be passed to DataFrame.to_csv.

See also

DataFrame.to_csv

Write a DataFrame to a comma-separated values (csv) file.

read_clipboard

Read text from clipboard and pass to read_table.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.to_clipboard for more. Requirements for your platform.

  • Linux : xclip, or xsel (with PyQt4 modules)

  • Windows : none

  • OS X : none

Examples

Copy the contents of a DataFrame to the clipboard.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], columns=['A', 'B', 'C'])
>>> df.to_clipboard(sep=',')  
... # Wrote the following to the system clipboard:
... # ,A,B,C
... # 0,1,2,3
... # 1,4,5,6

We can omit the index by passing the keyword index and setting it to false.

>>> df.to_clipboard(sep=',', index=False)  
... # Wrote the following to the system clipboard:
... # A,B,C
... # 1,2,3
... # 4,5,6
to_csv(path_or_buf=None, sep=',', na_rep='', float_format=None, columns=None, header=True, index=True, index_label=None, mode='w', encoding=None, compression='infer', quoting=None, quotechar='"', line_terminator=None, chunksize=None, date_format=None, doublequote=True, escapechar=None, decimal='.', errors: str = 'strict', storage_options: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None)

Write object to a comma-separated values (csv) file.

Parameters
  • path_or_buf (str or file handle, default None) –

    File path or object, if None is provided the result is returned as a string. If a non-binary file object is passed, it should be opened with newline=’’, disabling universal newlines. If a binary file object is passed, mode might need to contain a ‘b’.

    Changed in version 1.2.0: Support for binary file objects was introduced.

  • sep (str, default ',') – String of length 1. Field delimiter for the output file.

  • na_rep (str, default '') – Missing data representation.

  • float_format (str, default None) – Format string for floating point numbers.

  • columns (sequence, optional) – Columns to write.

  • header (bool or list of str, default True) – Write out the column names. If a list of strings is given it is assumed to be aliases for the column names.

  • index (bool, default True) – Write row names (index).

  • index_label (str or sequence, or False, default None) – Column label for index column(s) if desired. If None is given, and header and index are True, then the index names are used. A sequence should be given if the object uses MultiIndex. If False do not print fields for index names. Use index_label=False for easier importing in R.

  • mode (str) – Python write mode, default ‘w’.

  • encoding (str, optional) – A string representing the encoding to use in the output file, defaults to ‘utf-8’. encoding is not supported if path_or_buf is a non-binary file object.

  • compression (str or dict, default 'infer') –

    If str, represents compression mode. If dict, value at ‘method’ is the compression mode. Compression mode may be any of the following possible values: {‘infer’, ‘gzip’, ‘bz2’, ‘zip’, ‘xz’, None}. If compression mode is ‘infer’ and path_or_buf is path-like, then detect compression mode from the following extensions: ‘.gz’, ‘.bz2’, ‘.zip’ or ‘.xz’. (otherwise no compression). If dict given and mode is one of {‘zip’, ‘gzip’, ‘bz2’}, or inferred as one of the above, other entries passed as additional compression options.

    Changed in version 1.0.0: May now be a dict with key ‘method’ as compression mode and other entries as additional compression options if compression mode is ‘zip’.

    Changed in version 1.1.0: Passing compression options as keys in dict is supported for compression modes ‘gzip’ and ‘bz2’ as well as ‘zip’.

    Changed in version 1.2.0: Compression is supported for binary file objects.

    Changed in version 1.2.0: Previous versions forwarded dict entries for ‘gzip’ to gzip.open instead of gzip.GzipFile which prevented setting mtime.

  • quoting (optional constant from csv module) – Defaults to csv.QUOTE_MINIMAL. If you have set a float_format then floats are converted to strings and thus csv.QUOTE_NONNUMERIC will treat them as non-numeric.

  • quotechar (str, default '"') – String of length 1. Character used to quote fields.

  • line_terminator (str, optional) – The newline character or character sequence to use in the output file. Defaults to os.linesep, which depends on the OS in which this method is called (’\n’ for linux, ‘\r\n’ for Windows, i.e.).

  • chunksize (int or None) – Rows to write at a time.

  • date_format (str, default None) – Format string for datetime objects.

  • doublequote (bool, default True) – Control quoting of quotechar inside a field.

  • escapechar (str, default None) – String of length 1. Character used to escape sep and quotechar when appropriate.

  • decimal (str, default '.') – Character recognized as decimal separator. E.g. use ‘,’ for European data.

  • errors (str, default 'strict') –

    Specifies how encoding and decoding errors are to be handled. See the errors argument for open() for a full list of options.

    New in version 1.1.0.

  • storage_options (dict, optional) –

    Extra options that make sense for a particular storage connection, e.g. host, port, username, password, etc. For HTTP(S) URLs the key-value pairs are forwarded to urllib as header options. For other URLs (e.g. starting with “s3://”, and “gcs://”) the key-value pairs are forwarded to fsspec. Please see fsspec and urllib for more details.

    New in version 1.2.0.

Returns

If path_or_buf is None, returns the resulting csv format as a string. Otherwise returns None.

Return type

None or str

    • ’index’ : dict like {index -> {column -> value}}

    Abbreviations are allowed. s indicates series and sp indicates split.

  • into (class, default dict) – The collections.abc.Mapping subclass used for all Mappings in the return value. Can be the actual class or an empty instance of the mapping type you want. If you want a collections.defaultdict, you must pass it initialized.

Returns

Return a collections.abc.Mapping object representing the DataFrame. The resulting transformation depends on the orient parameter.

Return type

dict, list or collections.abc.Mapping

See also

DataFrame.from_dict

Create a DataFrame from a dictionary.

DataFrame.to_json

Convert a DataFrame to JSON format.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2],
...                    'col2': [0.5, 0.75]},
...                   index=['row1', 'row2'])
>>> df
      col1  col2
row1     1  0.50
row2     2  0.75
>>> df.to_dict()
{'col1': {'row1': 1, 'row2': 2}, 'col2': {'row1': 0.5, 'row2': 0.75}}

You can specify the return orientation.

>>> df.to_dict('series')
{'col1': row1    1
         row2    2
Name: col1, dtype: int64,
'col2': row1    0.50
        row2    0.75
Name: col2, dtype: float64}
>>> df.to_dict('split')
{'index': ['row1', 'row2'], 'columns': ['col1', 'col2'],

to_excel(excel_writer, sheet_name='Sheet1', na_rep='', float_format=None, columns=None, header=True, index=True, index_label=None, startrow=0, startcol=0, engine=None, merge_cells=True, encoding=None, inf_rep='inf', verbose=True, freeze_panes=None, storage_options: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None)

Write object to an Excel sheet.

To write a single object to an Excel .xlsx file it is only necessary to specify a target file name. To write to multiple sheets it is necessary to create an ExcelWriter object with a target file name, and specify a sheet in the file to write to.

Multiple sheets may be written to by specifying unique sheet_name. With all data written to the file it is necessary to save the changes. Note that creating an ExcelWriter object with a file name that already exists will result in the contents of the existing file being erased.

Parameters
  • excel_writer (path-like, file-like, or ExcelWriter object) – File path or existing ExcelWriter.

  • sheet_name (str, default 'Sheet1') – Name of sheet which will contain DataFrame.

  • na_rep (str, default '') – Missing data representation.

  • float_format (str, optional) – Format string for floating point numbers. For example float_format="%.2f" will format 0.1234 to 0.12.

  • columns (sequence or list of str, optional) – Columns to write.

  • header (bool or list of str, default True) – Write out the column names. If a list of string is given it is assumed to be aliases for the column names.

  • index (bool, default True) – Write row names (index).

  • index_label (str or sequence, optional) – Column label for index column(s) if desired. If not specified, and header and index are True, then the index names are used. A sequence should be given if the DataFrame uses MultiIndex.

  • startrow (int, default 0) – Upper left cell row to dump data frame.

  • startcol (int, default 0) – Upper left cell column to dump data frame.

  • engine (str, optional) –

    Write engine to use, ‘openpyxl’ or ‘xlsxwriter’. You can also set this via the options io.excel.xlsx.writer, io.excel.xls.writer, and io.excel.xlsm.writer.

    Deprecated since version 1.2.0: As the xlwt package is no longer maintained, the xlwt engine will be removed in a future version of pandas.

  • merge_cells (bool, default True) – Write MultiIndex and Hierarchical Rows as merged cells.

  • encoding (str, optional) – Encoding of the resulting excel file. Only necessary for xlwt, other writers support unicode natively.

  • inf_rep (str, default 'inf') – Representation for infinity (there is no native representation for infinity in Excel).

  • verbose (bool, default True) – Display more information in the error logs.

  • freeze_panes (tuple of int (length 2), optional) – Specifies the one-based bottommost row and rightmost column that is to be frozen.

  • storage_options (dict, optional) –

    Extra options that make sense for a particular storage connection, e.g. host, port, username, password, etc. For HTTP(S) URLs the key-value pairs are forwarded to urllib as header options. For other URLs (e.g. starting with “s3://”, and “gcs://”) the key-value pairs are forwarded to fsspec. Please see fsspec and urllib for more details.

    New in version 1.2.0.

to_csv

Write DataFrame to a comma-separated values (csv) file.

ExcelWriter

Class for writing DataFrame objects into excel sheets.

read_excel

Read an Excel file into a pandas DataFrame.

read_csv

Read a comma-separated values (csv) file into DataFrame.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.to_excel for more. For compatibility with to_csv(), to_excel serializes lists and dicts to strings before writing.

Once a workbook has been saved it is not possible to write further data without rewriting the whole workbook.

Examples

Create, write to and save a workbook:

>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame([['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']],
...                    index=['row 1', 'row 2'],
...                    columns=['col 1', 'col 2'])
>>> df1.to_excel("output.xlsx")  

To specify the sheet name:

>>> df1.to_excel("output.xlsx",
...              sheet_name='Sheet_name_1')  

If you wish to write to more than one sheet in the workbook, it is necessary to specify an ExcelWriter object:

>>> df2 = df1.copy()
>>> with pd.ExcelWriter('output.xlsx') as writer:  
...     df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet_name_1')
...     df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet_name_2')

ExcelWriter can also be used to append to an existing Excel file:

>>> with pd.ExcelWriter('output.xlsx',
...                     mode='a') as writer:  
...     df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet_name_3')

To set the library that is used to write the Excel file, you can pass the engine keyword (the default engine is automatically chosen depending on the file extension):

>>> df1.to_excel('output1.xlsx', engine='xlsxwriter')  
to_hdf(path_or_buf, key, format='table', **kwargs)

Write the contained data to an HDF5 file using HDFStore.

Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) is self-describing, allowing an application to interpret the structure and contents of a file with no outside information. One HDF file can hold a mix of related objects which can be accessed as a group or as individual objects.

In order to add another DataFrame or Series to an existing HDF file please use append mode and a different a key.

Warning

One can store a subclass of DataFrame or Series to HDF5, but the type of the subclass is lost upon storing.

For more information see the user guide.

Parameters
  • path_or_buf (str or pandas.HDFStore) – File path or HDFStore object.

  • key (str) – Identifier for the group in the store.

  • mode ({'a', 'w', 'r+'}, default 'a') –

    Mode to open file:

    • ’w’: write, a new file is created (an existing file with the same name would be deleted).

    • ’a’: append, an existing file is opened for reading and writing, and if the file does not exist it is created.

    • ’r+’: similar to ‘a’, but the file must already exist.

  • complevel ({0-9}, optional) – Specifies a compression level for data. A value of 0 disables compression.

  • complib ({'zlib', 'lzo', 'bzip2', 'blosc'}, default 'zlib') – Specifies the compression library to be used. As of v0.20.2 these additional compressors for Blosc are supported (default if no compressor specified: ‘blosc:blosclz’): {‘blosc:blosclz’, ‘blosc:lz4’, ‘blosc:lz4hc’, ‘blosc:snappy’, ‘blosc:zlib’, ‘blosc:zstd’}. Specifying a compression library which is not available issues a ValueError.

  • append (bool, default False) – For Table formats, append the input data to the existing.

  • format ({'fixed', 'table', None}, default 'fixed') –

    Possible values:

    • ’fixed’: Fixed format. Fast writing/reading. Not-appendable, nor searchable.

    • ’table’: Table format. Write as a PyTables Table structure which may perform worse but allow more flexible operations like searching / selecting subsets of the data.

    • If None, pd.get_option(‘io.hdf.default_format’) is checked, followed by fallback to “fixed”

  • errors (str, default 'strict') – Specifies how encoding and decoding errors are to be handled. See the errors argument for open() for a full list of options.

  • encoding (str, default "UTF-8") –

  • min_itemsize (dict or int, optional) – Map column names to minimum string sizes for columns.

  • nan_rep (Any, optional) – How to represent null values as str. Not allowed with append=True.

  • data_columns (list of columns or True, optional) – List of columns to create as indexed data columns for on-disk queries, or True to use all columns. By default only the axes of the object are indexed. See io.hdf5-query-data-columns. Applicable only to format=’table’.

read_hdf

Read from HDF file.

DataFrame.to_parquet

Write a DataFrame to the binary parquet format.

DataFrame.to_sql

Write to a SQL table.

DataFrame.to_feather

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 2, 3], 'B': [4, 5, 6]},
...                   index=['a', 'b', 'c'])
>>> df.to_hdf('data.h5', key='df', mode='w')

We can add another object to the same file:

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4])
>>> s.to_hdf('data.h5', key='s')

Reading from HDF file:

>>> pd.read_hdf('data.h5', 'df')
A  B
a  1  4
b  2  5
c  3  6
>>> pd.read_hdf('data.h5', 's')

Convert the object to a JSON string.

Note NaN’s and None will be converted to null and datetime objects will be converted to UNIX timestamps.

Parameters
  • path_or_buf (str or file handle, optional) – File path or object. If not specified, the result is returned as a string.

  • orient (str) –

    Indication of expected JSON string format.

    • Series:

      • default is ‘index’

      • allowed values are: {‘split’, ‘records’, ‘index’, ‘table’}.

    • DataFrame:

      • default is ‘columns’

      • allowed values are: {‘split’, ‘records’, ‘index’, ‘columns’, ‘values’, ‘table’}.

    • The format of the JSON string:

      • ’split’ : dict like {‘index’ -> [index], ‘columns’ -> [columns], ‘data’ -> [values]}

      • ’records’ : list like [{column -> value}, … , {column -> value}]

      • ’index’ : dict like {index -> {column -> value}}

      • ’columns’ : dict like {column -> {index -> value}}

      • ’values’ : just the values array

      • ’table’ : dict like {‘schema’: {schema}, ‘data’: {data}}

      Describing the data, where data component is like orient='records'.

  • date_format ({None, 'epoch', 'iso'}) – Type of date conversion. ‘epoch’ = epoch milliseconds, ‘iso’ = ISO8601. The default depends on the orient. For orient='table', the default is ‘iso’. For all other orients, the default is ‘epoch’.

  • double_precision (int, default 10) – The number of decimal places to use when encoding floating point values.

  • force_ascii (bool, default True) – Force encoded string to be ASCII.

  • date_unit (str, default 'ms' (milliseconds)) – The time unit to encode to, governs timestamp and ISO8601 precision. One of ‘s’, ‘ms’, ‘us’, ‘ns’ for second, millisecond, microsecond, and nanosecond respectively.

  • default_handler (callable, default None) – Handler to call if object cannot otherwise be converted to a suitable format for JSON. Should receive a single argument which is the object to convert and return a serialisable object.

  • lines (bool, default False) – If ‘orient’ is ‘records’ write out line-delimited json format. Will throw ValueError if incorrect ‘orient’ since others are not list-like.

  • compression ({'infer', 'gzip', 'bz2', 'zip', 'xz', None}) – A string representing the compression to use in the output file, only used when the first argument is a filename. By default, the compression is inferred from the filename.

  • index (bool, default True) – Whether to include the index values in the JSON string. Not including the index (index=False) is only supported when orient is ‘split’ or ‘table’.

  • indent (int, optional) –

    Length of whitespace used to indent each record.

    New in version 1.0.0.

  • storage_options (dict, optional) –

    Extra options that make sense for a particular storage connection, e.g. host, port, username, password, etc. For HTTP(S) URLs the key-value pairs are forwarded to urllib as header options. For other URLs (e.g. starting with “s3://”, and “gcs://”) the key-value pairs are forwarded to fsspec. Please see fsspec and urllib for more details.

    New in version 1.2.0.

Returns

If path_or_buf is None, returns the resulting json format as a string. Otherwise returns None.

Return type

None or str

See also

read_json

Convert a JSON string to pandas object.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.to_json for more. The behavior of indent=0 varies from the stdlib, which does not indent the output but does insert newlines. Currently, indent=0 and the default indent=None are equivalent in pandas, though this may change in a future release.

orient='table' contains a ‘pandas_version’ field under ‘schema’. This stores the version of pandas used in the latest revision of the schema.

Render object to a LaTeX tabular, longtable, or nested table/tabular.

Requires \usepackage{booktabs}. The output can be copy/pasted into a main LaTeX document or read from an external file with \input{table.tex}.

Changed in version 1.0.0: Added caption and label arguments.

Changed in version 1.2.0: Added position argument, changed meaning of caption argument.

Parameters
  • buf (str, Path or StringIO-like, optional, default None) – Buffer to write to. If None, the output is returned as a string.

  • columns (list of label, optional) – The subset of columns to write. Writes all columns by default.

  • col_space (int, optional) – The minimum width of each column.

  • header (bool or list of str, default True) – Write out the column names. If a list of strings is given, it is assumed to be aliases for the column names.

  • index (bool, default True) – Write row names (index).

  • na_rep (str, default 'NaN') – Missing data representation.

  • formatters (list of functions or dict of {str: function}, optional) – Formatter functions to apply to columns’ elements by position or name. The result of each function must be a unicode string. List must be of length equal to the number of columns.

  • float_format (one-parameter function or str, optional, default None) – Formatter for floating point numbers. For example float_format="%.2f" and float_format="{:0.2f}".format will both result in 0.1234 being formatted as 0.12.

  • sparsify (bool, optional) – Set to False for a DataFrame with a hierarchical index to print every multiindex key at each row. By default, the value will be read from the config module.

  • index_names (bool, default True) – Prints the names of the indexes.

  • bold_rows (bool, default False) – Make the row labels bold in the output.

  • column_format (str, optional) – The columns format as specified in LaTeX table format e.g. ‘rcl’ for 3 columns. By default, ‘l’ will be used for all columns except columns of numbers, which default to ‘r’.

  • longtable (bool, optional) – By default, the value will be read from the pandas config module. Use a longtable environment instead of tabular. Requires adding a usepackage{longtable} to your LaTeX preamble.

  • escape (bool, optional) – By default, the value will be read from the pandas config module. When set to False prevents from escaping latex special characters in column names.

  • encoding (str, optional) – A string representing the encoding to use in the output file, defaults to ‘utf-8’.

  • decimal (str, default '.') – Character recognized as decimal separator, e.g. ‘,’ in Europe.

  • multicolumn (bool, default True) – Use multicolumn to enhance MultiIndex columns. The default will be read from the config module.

  • multicolumn_format (str, default 'l') – The alignment for multicolumns, similar to column_format The default will be read from the config module.

  • multirow (bool, default False) – Use multirow to enhance MultiIndex rows. Requires adding a usepackage{multirow} to your LaTeX preamble. Will print centered labels (instead of top-aligned) across the contained rows, separating groups via clines. The default will be read from the pandas config module.

  • caption (str or tuple, optional) –

    Tuple (full_caption, short_caption), which results in \caption[short_caption]{full_caption}; if a single string is passed, no short caption will be set.

    New in version 1.0.0.

    Changed in version 1.2.0: Optionally allow caption to be a tuple (full_caption, short_caption).

  • label (str, optional) –

    The LaTeX label to be placed inside \label{} in the output. This is used with \ref{} in the main .tex file.

    New in version 1.0.0.

  • position (str, optional) –

    The LaTeX positional argument for tables, to be placed after \begin{} in the output.

    New in version 1.2.0:

    str or None

    If buf is None, returns the result as a string. Otherwise returns None.

to_numpy(dtype=None, copy=False, na_value=NoDefault.no_default)

Convert the DataFrame to a NumPy array.

By default, the dtype of the returned array will be the common NumPy dtype of all types in the DataFrame. For example, if the dtypes are float16 and float32, the results dtype will be float32. This may require copying data and coercing values, which may be expensive.

Parameters
  • dtype (str or numpy.dtype, optional) – The dtype to pass to numpy.asarray().

  • copy (bool, default False) – Whether to ensure that the returned value is not a view on another array. Note that copy=False does not ensure that to_numpy() is no-copy. Rather, copy=True ensure that a copy is made, even if not strictly necessary.

  • na_value (Any, optional) –

    The value to use for missing values. The default value depends on dtype and the dtypes of the DataFrame columns.

    New in version 1.1.0.

Returns

Return type

numpy.ndarray

See also

Series.to_numpy

Similar method for Series.

Examples

>>> pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2], "B": [3, 4]}).to_numpy()
array([[1, 3],
       [2, 4]])

With heterogeneous data, the lowest common type will have to be used.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2], "B": [3.0, 4.5]})
>>> df.to_numpy()
array([[1. , 3. ],
       [2. , 4.5]])

For a mix of numeric and non-numeric types, the output array will have object dtype.

>>> df['C'] = pd.date_range('2000', periods=2)
>>> df.to_numpy()
array([[1, 3.0, Timestamp('2000-01-01 00:00:00')],
       [2, 4.5, Timestamp('2000-01-02 00:00:00')]], dtype=object)

Parameters
  • freq (str, default) – Frequency of the PeriodIndex.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – The axis to convert (the index by default).

  • copy (bool, default True) – If False then underlying input data is not copied.

Parameters
  • path (str) – File path where the pickled object will be stored.

  • compression ({'infer', 'gzip', 'bz2', 'zip', 'xz', None}, default 'infer') – A string representing the compression to use in the output file. By default, infers from the file extension in specified path. Compression mode may be any of the following possible values: {‘infer’, ‘gzip’, ‘bz2’, ‘zip’, ‘xz’, None}. If compression mode is ‘infer’ and path_or_buf is path-like, then detect compression mode from the following extensions: ‘.gz’, ‘.bz2’, ‘.zip’ or ‘.xz’. (otherwise no compression). If dict given and mode is ‘zip’ or inferred as ‘zip’, other entries passed as additional compression options.

to_sql(name, con, schema=None, if_exists='fail', index=True, index_label=None, chunksize=None, dtype=None, method=None)

Write records stored in a DataFrame to a SQL database.

Databases supported by SQLAlchemy [1]_ are supported. Tables can be newly created, appended to, or overwritten.

Parameters
  • name (str) – Name of SQL table.

  • con (sqlalchemy.engine.(Engine or Connection) or sqlite3.Connection) – Using SQLAlchemy makes it possible to use any DB supported by that library. Legacy support is provided for sqlite3.Connection objects. The user is responsible for engine disposal and connection closure for the SQLAlchemy connectable See here.

  • schema (str, optional) – Specify the schema (if database flavor supports this). If None, use default schema.

  • if_exists ({'fail', 'replace', 'append'}, default 'fail') –

    How to behave if the table already exists.

    • fail: Raise a ValueError.

    • replace: Drop the table before inserting new values.

    • append: Insert new values to the existing table.

  • index (bool, default True) – Write DataFrame index as a column. Uses index_label as the column name in the table.

  • index_label (str or sequence, default None) – Column label for index column(s). If None is given (default) and index is True, then the index names are used. A sequence should be given if the DataFrame uses MultiIndex.

  • chunksize (int, optional) – Specify the number of rows in each batch to be written at a time. By default, all rows will be written at once.

  • dtype (dict or scalar, optional) – Specifying the datatype for columns. If a dictionary is used, the keys should be the column names and the values should be the SQLAlchemy types or strings for the sqlite3 legacy mode. If a scalar is provided, it will be applied to all columns.

  • method ({None, 'multi', callable}, optional) –

    Controls the SQL insertion clause used:

    • None : Uses standard SQL INSERT clause (one per row).

    • ’multi’: Pass multiple values in a single INSERT clause.

    • callable with signature (pd_table, conn, keys, data_iter).

    Details and a sample callable implementation can be found in the section insert method.

Raises

ValueError – When the table already exists and if_exists is ‘fail’ (the default).

See also

read_sql

Read a DataFrame from a table.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.to_sql for more. Timezone aware datetime columns will be written as Timestamp with timezone type with SQLAlchemy if supported by the database. Otherwise, the datetimes will be stored as timezone unaware timestamps local to the original timezone.

Examples

Create an in-memory SQLite database.

>>> from sqlalchemy import create_engine
>>> engine = create_engine('sqlite://', echo=False)

Create a table from scratch with 3 rows.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'name' : ['User 1', 'User 2', 'User 3']})
>>> df
     name
0  User 1
1  User 2
2  User 3
>>> df.to_sql('users', con=engine)
>>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
[(0, 'User 1'), (1, 'User 2'), (2, 'User 3')]

An sqlalchemy.engine.Connection can also be passed to con:

>>> with engine.begin() as connection:
...     df1 = pd.DataFrame({'name' : ['User 4', 'User 5']})
...     df1.to_sql('users', con=connection, if_exists='append')

This is allowed to support operations that require that the same DBAPI connection is used for the entire operation.

>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame({'name' : ['User 6', 'User 7']})
>>> df2.to_sql('users', con=engine, if_exists='append')
>>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
[(0, 'User 1'), (1, 'User 2'), (2, 'User 3'),
 (0, 'User 4'), (1, 'User 5'), (0, 'User 6'),
 (1, 'User 7')]

Overwrite the table with just df2.

>>> df2.to_sql('users', con=engine, if_exists='replace',
...            index_label='id')
>>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
[(0, 'User 6'), (1, 'User 7')]

Specify the dtype (especially useful for integers with missing values). Notice that while pandas is forced to store the data as floating point, the database supports nullable integers. When fetching the data with Python, we get back integer scalars.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, None, 2]})
>>> df
     A
0  1.0
1  NaN
2  2.0
>>> from sqlalchemy.types import Integer
>>> df.to_sql('integers', con=engine, index=False,
...           dtype={"A": Integer()})
>>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM integers").fetchall()
[(1,), (None,), (2,)]

  • formatters (list, tuple or dict of one-param. functions, optional) – Formatter functions to apply to columns’ elements by position or name. The result of each function must be a unicode string. List/tuple must be of length equal to the number of columns.

  • float_format (one-parameter function, optional, default None) –

    Formatter function to apply to columns’ elements if they are floats. This function must return a unicode string and will be applied only to the non-NaN elements, with NaN being handled by na_rep.

    Changed in version 1.2.0.

  • sparsify (bool, optional, default True) – Set to False for a DataFrame with a hierarchical index to print every multiindex key at each row.

  • index_names (bool, optional, default True) – Prints the names of the indexes.

transform(func, axis=0, *args, **kwargs)

Call func on self producing a DataFrame with transformed values.

Produced DataFrame will have same axis length as self.

Parameters
  • func (function, str, list-like or dict-like) –

    Function to use for transforming the data. If a function, must either work when passed a DataFrame or when passed to DataFrame.apply. If func is both list-like and dict-like, dict-like behavior takes precedence.

    Accepted combinations are:

    • function

    • string function name

    • list-like of functions and/or function names, e.g. [np.exp, 'sqrt']

    • dict-like of axis labels -> functions, function names or list-like of such.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0) – If 0 or ‘index’: apply function to each column. If 1 or ‘columns’: apply function to each row.

  • *args – Positional arguments to pass to func.

  • **kwargs – Keyword arguments to pass to func.

Returns

A DataFrame that must have the same length as self.

Return type

DataFrame

:raises ValueError : If the returned DataFrame has a different length than self.:

See also

DataFrame.agg

Only perform aggregating type operations.

DataFrame.apply

Invoke function on a DataFrame.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.transform for more. Functions that mutate the passed object can produce unexpected behavior or errors and are not supported. See gotchas.udf-mutation for more details.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A': range(3), 'B': range(1, 4)})
>>> df
   A  B
0  0  1
1  1  2
2  2  3
>>> df.transform(lambda x: x + 1)
   A  B
0  1  2
1  2  3
2  3  4

Even though the resulting DataFrame must have the same length as the input DataFrame, it is possible to provide several input functions:

>>> s = pd.Series(range(3))

truediv(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)

Get Floating division of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator truediv).

Equivalent to dataframe / other, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, rtruediv.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Parameters
  • other (scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame) – Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}) – Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

  • level (int or label) – Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.

  • fill_value (float or None, default None) – Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.

Returns

Result of the arithmetic operation.

Return type

DataFrame

truncate(before=None, after=None, axis=None, copy=True)

Truncate a Series or DataFrame before and after some index value.

This is a useful shorthand for boolean indexing based on index values above or below certain thresholds.

Parameters
  • before (date, str, int) – Truncate all rows before this index value.

  • after (date, str, int) – Truncate all rows after this index value.

  • axis ({0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, optional) – Axis to truncate. Truncates the index (rows) by default.

  • copy (bool, default is True,) – Return a copy of the truncated section.

Returns

The truncated Series or DataFrame.

Return type

type of caller

See also

DataFrame.loc

Select a subset of a DataFrame by label.

DataFrame.iloc

Select a subset of a DataFrame by position.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.truncate for more. If the index being truncated contains only datetime values, before and after may be specified as strings instead of Timestamps.

Examples

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A': ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'],
...                    'B': ['f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j'],
...                    'C': ['k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o']},
...                   index=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
>>> df
   A  B  C
1  a  f  k
2  b  g  l
3  c  h  m
4  d  i  n
5  e  j  o
>>> df.truncate(before=2, after=4)
   A  B  C
2  b  g  l
3  c  h  m
4  d  i  n

The columns of a DataFrame can be truncated.

>>> df.truncate(before="A", after="B", axis="columns")
   A  B
1  a  f
2  b  g
3  c  h
4  d  i
5  e  j

For Series, only rows can be truncated.

>>> df['A'].truncate(before=2, after=4)
2    b
3    c
4    d
Name: A, dtype: object

The index values in truncate can be datetimes or string dates.

>>> dates = pd.date_range('2016-01-01', '2016-02-01', freq='s')
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(index=dates, data={'A': 1})
>>> df.tail()
                     A
2016-01-31 23:59:56  1
2016-01-31 23:59:57  1
2016-01-31 23:59:58  1
2016-01-31 23:59:59  1
2016-02-01 00:00:00  1
>>> df.truncate(before=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-05'),
...             after=pd.Timestamp('2016-01-10')).tail()
                     A
2016-01-09 23:59:56  1
2016-01-09 23:59:57  1
2016-01-09 23:59:58  1
2016-01-09 23:59:59  1
2016-01-10 00:00:00  1

Because the index is a DatetimeIndex containing only dates, we can specify before and after as strings. They will be coerced to Timestamps before truncation.

>>> df.truncate('2016-01-05', '2016-01-10').tail()
                     A
2016-01-09 23:59:56  1
2016-01-09 23:59:57  1
2016-01-09 23:59:58  1
2016-01-09 23:59:59  1
2016-01-10 00:00:00  1

Note that truncate assumes a 0 value for any unspecified time component (midnight). This differs from partial string slicing, which returns any partially matching dates.

>>> df.loc['2016-01-05':'2016-01-10', :].tail()
                     A
2016-01-10 23:59:55  1
2016-01-10 23:59:56  1
2016-01-10 23:59:57  1

2016-01-10 23:59:59  1
tshift(periods=1, freq=None, axis=0)

Shift the time index, using the index’s frequency if available.

Deprecated since version 1.1.0: Use shift instead.

Parameters
  • periods (int) – Number of periods to move, can be positive or negative.

  • freq (DateOffset, timedelta, or str, default None) – Increment to use from the tseries module or time rule expressed as a string (e.g. ‘EOM’).

  • axis ({0 or ‘index’, 1 or ‘columns’, None}, default 0) – Corresponds to the axis that contains the Index.

Returns

shifted

Return type

Series/DataFrame

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.tshift for more. If freq is not specified then tries to use the freq or inferred_freq attributes of the index. If neither of those attributes exist, a ValueError is thrown

tz_convert(tz, axis=0, level=None, copy=True)

Convert tz-aware axis to target time zone.

Parameters
  • tz (str or tzinfo object) –

  • axis (the axis to convert) –

  • level (int, str, default None) – If axis is a MultiIndex, convert a specific level. Otherwise must be None.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Also make a copy of the underlying data.

Returns

Object with time zone converted axis.

Return type

{klass}

Raises

TypeError – If the axis is tz-naive.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.tz_convert for more.

tz_localize(tz, axis=0, level=None, copy=True, ambiguous='raise', nonexistent='raise')

Localize tz-naive index of a Series or DataFrame to target time zone.

This operation localizes the Index. To localize the values in a timezone-naive Series, use Series.dt.tz_localize().

Parameters
  • tz (str or tzinfo) –

  • axis (the axis to localize) –

  • level (int, str, default None) – If axis ia a MultiIndex, localize a specific level. Otherwise must be None.

  • copy (bool, default True) – Also make a copy of the underlying data.

  • ambiguous ('infer', bool-ndarray, 'NaT', default 'raise') –

    When clocks moved backward due to DST, ambiguous times may arise. For example in Central European Time (UTC+01), when going from 03:00 DST to 02:00 non-DST, 02:30:00 local time occurs both at 00:30:00 UTC and at 01:30:00 UTC. In such a situation, the ambiguous parameter dictates how ambiguous times should be handled.

    • ’infer’ will attempt to infer fall dst-transition hours based on order

    • bool-ndarray where True signifies a DST time, False designates a non-DST time (note that this flag is only applicable for ambiguous times)

    • ’NaT’ will return NaT where there are ambiguous times

    • ’raise’ will raise an AmbiguousTimeError if there are ambiguous times.

  • nonexistent (str, default 'raise') –

    A nonexistent time does not exist in a particular timezone where clocks moved forward due to DST. Valid values are:

    • ’shift_forward’ will shift the nonexistent time forward to the closest existing time

    • ’shift_backward’ will shift the nonexistent time backward to the closest existing time

    • ’NaT’ will return NaT where there are nonexistent times

    • timedelta objects will shift nonexistent times by the timedelta

    • ’raise’ will raise an NonExistentTimeError if there are nonexistent times.

Returns

Same type as the input.

Return type

Series or DataFrame

Raises

TypeError – If the TimeSeries is tz-aware and tz is not None.

Examples

Localize local times:

>>> s = pd.Series([1],
...               index=pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-09-15 01:30:00']))
>>> s.tz_localize('CET')
2018-09-15 01:30:00+02:00    1
dtype: int64

Be careful with DST changes. When there is sequential data, pandas can infer the DST time:

>>> s = pd.Series(range(7),
...               index=pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-10-28 01:30:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 02:00:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 02:30:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 02:00:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 02:30:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 03:00:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 03:30:00']))
>>> s.tz_localize('CET', ambiguous='infer')
2018-10-28 01:30:00+02:00    0
2018-10-28 02:00:00+02:00    1
2018-10-28 02:30:00+02:00    2
2018-10-28 02:00:00+01:00    3
2018-10-28 02:30:00+01:00    4
2018-10-28 03:00:00+01:00    5
2018-10-28 03:30:00+01:00    6
dtype: int64

In some cases, inferring the DST is impossible. In such cases, you can pass an ndarray to the ambiguous parameter to set the DST explicitly

>>> s = pd.Series(range(3),
...               index=pd.DatetimeIndex(['2018-10-28 01:20:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 02:36:00',
...                                       '2018-10-28 03:46:00']))
>>> s.tz_localize('CET', ambiguous=np.array([True, True, False]))
2018-10-28 01:20:00+02:00    0
2018-10-28 02:36:00+02:00    1
2018-10-28 03:46:00+01:00    2
dtype: int64

If the DST transition causes nonexistent times, you can shift these dates forward or backward with a timedelta object or ‘shift_forward’ or ‘shift_backward’.

>>> s = pd.Series(range(2),
...               index=pd.DatetimeIndex(['2015-03-29 02:30:00',
...                                       '2015-03-29 03:30:00']))
>>> s.tz_localize('Europe/Warsaw', nonexistent='shift_forward')
2015-03-29 03:00:00+02:00    0
2015-03-29 03:30:00+02:00    1
dtype: int64
>>> s.tz_localize('Europe/Warsaw', nonexistent='shift_backward')
2015-03-29 01:59:59.999999999+01:00    0
2015-03-29 03:30:00+02:00              1

Return a Series containing counts of unique rows in the DataFrame.

New in version 1.1.0.

Parameters
  • subset (list-like, optional) – Columns to use when counting unique combinations.

  • normalize (bool, default False) – Return proportions rather than frequencies.

  • sort (bool, default True) – Sort by frequencies.

  • ascending (bool, default False) – Sort in ascending order.

  • dropna (bool, default True) –

    Don’t include counts of rows that contain NA values.

    New in version 1.3.0.

Returns

Return type

Series

See also

Series.value_counts

Equivalent method on Series.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.value_counts for more. The returned Series will have a MultiIndex with one level per input column. By default, rows that contain any NA values are omitted from the result. By default, the resulting Series will be in descending order so that the first element is the most frequently-occurring row.

With dropna set to False we can also count rows with NA values.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'first_name': ['John', 'Anne', 'John', 'Beth'],
...                    'middle_name': ['Smith', pd.NA, pd.NA, 'Louise']})
>>> df
  first_name middle_name
0       John       Smith
1       Anne        <NA>
2       John        <NA>
3       Beth      Louise
>>> df.value_counts()
first_name  middle_name
Beth        Louise         1
John        Smith          1
dtype: int64
>>> df.value_counts(dropna=False)
first_name  middle_name
Anne        NaN            1
Beth        Louise         1
John        Smith          1
            NaN            1
dtype: int64
property values

Return a Numpy representation of the DataFrame.

Warning

We recommend using DataFrame.to_numpy() instead.

Only the values in the DataFrame will be returned, the axes labels will be removed.

Returns

The values of the DataFrame.

Return type

numpy.ndarray

See also

DataFrame.to_numpy

Recommended alternative to this method.

DataFrame.index

Retrieve the index labels.

DataFrame.columns

Retrieving the column names.

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.values for more. The dtype will be a lower-common-denominator dtype (implicit upcasting); that is to say if the dtypes (even of numeric types) are mixed, the one that accommodates all will be chosen. Use this with care if you are not dealing with the blocks.

e.g. If the dtypes are float16 and float32, dtype will be upcast to float32. If dtypes are int32 and uint8, dtype will be upcast to int32. By numpy.find_common_type() convention, mixing int64 and uint64 will result in a float64 dtype.

Examples

A DataFrame where all columns are the same type (e.g., int64) results in an array of the same type.

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'age':    [ 3,  29],
...                    'height': [94, 170],
...                    'weight': [31, 115]})
>>> df
   age  height  weight
0    3      94      31
1   29     170     115
>>> df.dtypes
age       int64
height    int64
weight    int64
dtype: object
>>> df.values
array([[  3,  94,  31],
       [ 29, 170, 115]])

A DataFrame with mixed type columns(e.g., str/object, int64, float32) results in an ndarray of the broadest type that accommodates these mixed types (e.g., object).

>>> df2 = pd.DataFrame([('parrot',   24.0, 'second'),
...                     ('lion',     80.5, 1),
...                     ('monkey', np.nan, None)],
...                   columns=('name', 'max_speed', 'rank'))
>>> df2.dtypes
name          object
max_speed    float64
rank          object
dtype: object
>>> df2.values
array([['parrot', 24.0, 'second'],
       ['lion', 80.5, 1],
       ['monkey', nan, None]], dtype=object)
var(axis=None, skipna=None, level=None, ddof=1, numeric_only=None, **kwargs)

Return unbiased variance over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1 by default. This can be changed using the ddof argument

Parameters
  • axis ({index (0), columns (1)}) –

  • skipna (bool, default True) – Exclude NA/null values. If an entire row/column is NA, the result will be NA.

  • level (int or level name, default None) – If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

  • ddof (int, default 1) – Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

  • numeric_only (bool, default None) – Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

Returns

Return type

Series or DataFrame (if level specified)

Notes

See pandas API documentation for pandas.DataFrame.var for more. To have the same behaviour as numpy.std, use ddof=0 (instead of the default ddof=1)
