pandas 1.4.2

ParametersRaisesReturns
maybe_promote(dtype: 'np.dtype', fill_value=nan)

Parameters

dtype : np.dtype
fill_value : scalar, default np.nan

Raises

ValueError

If fill_value is a non-scalar and dtype is not object.

Returns

dtype

Upcasted from dtype argument if necessary.

fill_value

Upcasted from fill_value argument if necessary.

Find the minimal dtype that can hold both the given dtype and fill_value.

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
