head(self, n=5)

Similar to .apply(lambda x: x.head(n)) , but it returns a subset of rows from the original DataFrame with original index and order preserved ( as_index flag is ignored).

Parameters

n : int

If positive: number of entries to include from start of each group. If negative: number of entries to exclude from end of each group.

Returns

Series or DataFrame

Subset of original Series or DataFrame as determined by n.

Return first n rows of each group.

See Also

DataFrame.groupby

Apply a function groupby to each row or column of a DataFrame.

Series.groupby

Apply a function groupby to a Series.

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2], [1, 4], [5, 6]],
...  columns=['A', 'B'])
... df.groupby('A').head(1) A B 0 1 2 2 5 6
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> df.groupby('A').head(-1)
   A  B
0  1  2

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
