Series.dt
can be used to access the values of the series as datetimelike and return several properties. Pandas Series.dt.floor()
function perform floor operation on the data to the specified freq.
Syntax: Series.dt.floor(*args, **kwargs)
Parameter :
freq : The frequency level to floor the index toReturns : DatetimeIndex, TimedeltaIndex, or Series
Example #1: Use Series.dt.floor()
function to floor the datetime data of the given series object to the specified frequency.
# importing pandas as pd import pandas as pd # Creating the Series sr = pd.Series([ '2012-12-31 08:45' , '2019-1-1 12:30' , '2008-02-2 10:30' , '2010-1-1 09:25' , '2019-12-31 00:00' ]) # Creating the index idx = [ 'Day 1' , 'Day 2' , 'Day 3' , 'Day 4' , 'Day 5' ] # set the index sr.index = idx # Convert the underlying data to datetime sr = pd.to_datetime(sr) # Print the series print (sr) |
Output :
Now we will use Series.dt.floor()
function to floor the datetime values in the given series object to Daily frequency.
# floor to daily frequency result = sr.dt.floor(freq = 'D' ) # print the result print (result) |
Output :
As we can see in the output, the Series.dt.floor()
function has successfully floored the datetime values in the given series object to the specified frequency.
Example #2 : Use Series.dt.floor()
function to floor the datetime data of the given series object to the specified frequency.
# importing pandas as pd import pandas as pd # Creating the Series sr = pd.Series(pd.date_range( '2012-12-31 09:45' , periods = 5 , freq = 'T' , tz = 'Asia / Calcutta' )) # Creating the index idx = [ 'Day 1' , 'Day 2' , 'Day 3' , 'Day 4' , 'Day 5' ] # set the index sr.index = idx # Print the series print (sr) |
Output :
Now we will use Series.dt.floor()
function to floor the datetime values in the given series object to Hourly frequency.
# floor to hourly frequency result = sr.dt.floor(freq = 'H' ) # print the result print (result) |
Output :
As we can see in the output, the Series.dt.floor()
function has successfully floored the datetime values in the given series object to the specified frequency.
