Python | Pandas TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages.

Pandas

is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier. Pandas

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function return the given TimedeltaIndex object as an ndarray of datetime.timedelta objects.

Syntax : TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta() Parameters : None Return : datetimes : ndarray

Example #1:

Use

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function to convert the given TimedeltaIndex object into an ndarray.

Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Create the TimedeltaIndex object
tidx = pd.TimedeltaIndex(data =['06:05:01.000030', '+23:59:59.999999',
                        '22 day 2 min 3us 10ns', '+23:29:59.999999', 
                        '+12:19:59.999999'])

# Print the TimedeltaIndex object
print(tidx)

Output :

Now we will use the

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function to return an ndarray constructed from the given TimedeltaIndex object.

Python3

# convert to datetime.timedelta
tidx.to_pytimedelta()

Output :

As we can see in the output, the

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function has returned an array object containing the elements of the given TimedeltaIndex object as object type.  

Example #2:

Use

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function to convert the given TimedeltaIndex object into an ndarray.

Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Create the TimedeltaIndex object
tidx = pd.TimedeltaIndex(start ='1 days 02:00:12.001124', 
                        periods = 5, freq ='D', name ='Koala')

# Print the TimedeltaIndex object
print(tidx)

Output :

Now we will use the

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function to return an ndarray constructed from the given TimedeltaIndex object.

Python3

# convert to datetime.timedelta
tidx.to_pytimedelta()

Output :

As we can see in the output, the

TimedeltaIndex.to_pytimedelta()

function has returned an array object containing the elements of the given TimedeltaIndex object as object type.
