pandas 1.4.2

ParametersReturns
astype(self, dtype: 'AstypeArg', copy: 'bool' = True) -> 'ArrayLike'

Parameters

dtype : str or dtype

Typecode or data-type to which the array is cast.

copy : bool, default True

Whether to copy the data, even if not necessary. If False, a copy is made only if the old dtype does not match the new dtype.

Returns

array : np.ndarray or ExtensionArray

An ExtensionArray if dtype is ExtensionDtype, Otherwise a NumPy ndarray with 'dtype' for its dtype.

Cast to a NumPy array or ExtensionArray with 'dtype'.

Examples

See :

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
