pandas 1.4.2

NotesParametersReturns
kurt(self, **kwargs)

Notes

A minimum of four periods is required for the calculation.

Parameters

**kwargs :

For NumPy compatibility and will not have an effect on the result.

Returns

Series or DataFrame

Return type is the same as the original object with np.float64 dtype.

Calculate the rolling Fisher's definition of kurtosis without bias.

Examples

The example below will show a rolling calculation with a window size of four matching the equivalent function call using scipy.stats .

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 999]
... import scipy.stats
... print(f"{scipy.stats.kurtosis(arr[:-1], bias=False):.6f}") -1.200000
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> print(f"{scipy.stats.kurtosis(arr[1:], bias=False):.6f}")
3.999946
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> s = pd.Series(arr)
... s.rolling(4).kurt() 0 NaN 1 NaN 2 NaN 3 -1.200000 4 3.999946 dtype: float64

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
