pandas 1.4.2

ParametersReturns
to_period(self, freq: 'Frequency | None' = None, axis: 'Axis' = 0, copy: 'bool' = True) -> 'DataFrame'

Convert DataFrame from DatetimeIndex to PeriodIndex with desired frequency (inferred from index if not passed).

Parameters

freq : str, default

Frequency of the PeriodIndex.

axis : {0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0

The axis to convert (the index by default).

copy : bool, default True

If False then underlying input data is not copied.

Returns

DataFrame with PeriodIndex

Convert DataFrame from DatetimeIndex to PeriodIndex.

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx = pd.to_datetime(
...  [
...  "2001-03-31 00:00:00",
...  "2002-05-31 00:00:00",
...  "2003-08-31 00:00:00",
...  ]
... )
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx
DatetimeIndex(['2001-03-31', '2002-05-31', '2003-08-31'],
dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx.to_period("M")
PeriodIndex(['2001-03', '2002-05', '2003-08'], dtype='period[M]')

For the yearly frequency

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx.to_period("Y")
PeriodIndex(['2001', '2002', '2003'], dtype='period[A-DEC]')

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
