ParametersReturns
repeat(self, repeats: 'int | Sequence[int]', axis: 'int | None' = None)

Returns a new ExtensionArray where each element of the current ExtensionArray is repeated consecutively a given number of times.

Parameters

repeats : int or array of ints

The number of repetitions for each element. This should be a non-negative integer. Repeating 0 times will return an empty ExtensionArray.

axis : None

Must be None . Has no effect but is accepted for compatibility with numpy.

Returns

repeated_array : ExtensionArray

Newly created ExtensionArray with repeated elements.

Repeat elements of a ExtensionArray.

ExtensionArray.take

Take arbitrary positions.

Index.repeat

Equivalent function for Index.

Series.repeat

Equivalent function for Series.

numpy.repeat

Similar method for :None:class:`numpy.ndarray`.

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> cat = pd.Categorical(['a', 'b', 'c'])
... cat ['a', 'b', 'c'] Categories (3, object): ['a', 'b', 'c']
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> cat.repeat(2)
['a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'c', 'c']
Categories (3, object): ['a', 'b', 'c']
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> cat.repeat([1, 2, 3])
['a', 'b', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'c']
Categories (3, object): ['a', 'b', 'c']

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
