DataFrame(
    data=None,
    index: vendored_pandas_typing.Axes | None = None,
    columns: vendored_pandas_typing.Axes | None = None,
    dtype: typing.Optional[
        bigframes.dtypes.DtypeString | bigframes.dtypes.Dtype
    ] = None,
    copy: typing.Optional[bool] = None,
    *,
    session: typing.Optional[bigframes.session.Session] = None
)

Two-dimensional, size-mutable, potentially heterogeneous tabular data.

Data structure also contains labeled axes (rows and columns). Arithmetic operations align on both row and column labels. Can be thought of as a dict-like container for Series objects. The primary pandas data structure.

Properties

at

Access a single value for a row/column label pair.

axes

Return a list representing the axes of the DataFrame.

It has the row axis labels and column axis labels as the only members. They are returned in that order.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})
>>> df.axes[1:]
[Index(['col1', 'col2'], dtype='object')]

columns

The column labels of the DataFrame.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

You can access the column labels of a DataFrame via columns property.

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'Name': ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Aritra'],
...                     'Age': [25, 30, 35],
...                     'Location': ['Seattle', 'New York', 'Kona']},
...                    index=([10, 20, 30]))
>>> df
      Name  Age  Location
10   Alice   25   Seattle
20     Bob   30  New York
30  Aritra   35      Kona
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 3 columns]
>>> df.columns
Index(['Name', 'Age', 'Location'], dtype='object')

You can also set new labels for columns.

>>> df.columns = ["NewName", "NewAge", "NewLocation"]
>>> df
   NewName  NewAge NewLocation
10   Alice      25     Seattle
20     Bob      30    New York
30  Aritra      35        Kona
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 3 columns]
>>> df.columns
Index(['NewName', 'NewAge', 'NewLocation'], dtype='object')

dtypes

Return the dtypes in the DataFrame.

This returns a Series with the data type of each column. The result's index is the original DataFrame's columns. Columns with mixed types aren't supported yet in BigQuery DataFrames.

empty

Indicates whether Series/DataFrame is empty.

True if Series/DataFrame is entirely empty (no items), meaning any of the axes are of length 0.

Note: If Series/DataFrame contains only NA values, it is still not considered empty.

Returns
Type	Description
bool	If Series/DataFrame is empty, return True, if not return False.

iat

Access a single value for a row/column pair by integer position.

iloc

Purely integer-location based indexing for selection by position.

index

The index (row labels) of the DataFrame.

The index of a DataFrame is a series of labels that identify each row. The labels can be integers, strings, or any other hashable type. The index is used for label-based access and alignment, and can be accessed or modified using this attribute.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

You can access the index of a DataFrame via index property.

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'Name': ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Aritra'],
...                     'Age': [25, 30, 35],
...                     'Location': ['Seattle', 'New York', 'Kona']},
...                    index=([10, 20, 30]))
>>> df
      Name  Age  Location
10   Alice   25   Seattle
20     Bob   30  New York
30  Aritra   35      Kona
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 3 columns]
>>> df.index # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
Index([10, 20, 30], dtype='Int64')
>>> df.index.values
array([10, 20, 30], dtype=object)

Let's try setting a new index for the dataframe and see that reflect via

index property.

>>> df1 = df.set_index(["Name", "Location"])
>>> df1
                 Age
Name   Location
Alice  Seattle    25
Bob    New York   30
Aritra Kona       35
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 1 columns]
>>> df1.index # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
MultiIndex([( 'Alice',  'Seattle'),
    (   'Bob', 'New York'),
    ('Aritra',     'Kona')],
   name='Name')
>>> df1.index.values
array([('Alice', 'Seattle'), ('Bob', 'New York'), ('Aritra', 'Kona')],
    dtype=object)

Returns
Type	Description
Index	The index object of the DataFrame.

loc

Access a group of rows and columns by label(s) or a boolean array.

.loc[] is primarily label based, but may also be used with a boolean array.

Allowed inputs are:

• A single label, e.g. 5 or 'a', (note that 5 is interpreted as a label of the index, and never as an integer position along the index).
• A list of labels, e.g. ['a', 'b', 'c'].
• A boolean series of the same length as the axis being sliced, e.g. [True, False, True].
• An alignable Index. The index of the returned selection will be the input.
• Not supported yet An alignable boolean Series. The index of the key will be aligned before masking.
• Not supported yet A slice object with labels, e.g. 'a':'f'. Note: contrary to usual python slices, both the start and the stop are included.
• Not supported yet A callable function with one argument (the calling Series or DataFrame) that returns valid output for indexing (one of the above).

Exceptions
Type	Description
NotImplementError	if the inputs are not supported.

ndim

Return an int representing the number of axes / array dimensions.

Returns
Type	Description
int	Return 1 if Series. Otherwise return 2 if DataFrame.

...                     'col2': [4, 5, 6]})
>>> df.shape
(3, 2)

size

Return an int representing the number of elements in this object.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> s = bpd.Series({'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3})
>>> s.size
3

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})
>>> df.size
4

Returns
Type	Description
int	Return the number of rows if Series. Otherwise return the number of rows times number of columns if DataFrame.

) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Apply a function to a Dataframe elementwise.

This method applies a function that accepts and returns a scalar to every element of a DataFrame.

Note: In pandas 2.1.0, DataFrame.applymap is deprecated and renamed to DataFrame.map.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

Let's use reuse=False flag to make sure a new remote_function is created every time we run the following code, but you can skip it to potentially reuse a previously deployed remote_function from the same user defined function.

>>> @bpd.remote_function([int], float, reuse=False)
... def minutes_to_hours(x):
...     return x/60

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {"system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, 90, 120],
...      "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6]})
>>> df_minutes
system_minutes  user_minutes
0               0             0
1              30            15
2              60            75
3              90            90
4             120             6
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df_hours = df_minutes.map(minutes_to_hours)
>>> df_hours
system_minutes  user_minutes
0             0.0           0.0
1             0.5          0.25

3             1.5           1.5
4             2.0           0.1
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns]

If there are NA/None values in the data, you can ignore applying the remote function on such values by specifying na_action='ignore'.

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         "system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, None, 90, 120, bpd.NA],
...         "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6, None, bpd.NA]
...     }, dtype="Int64")
>>> df_hours = df_minutes.map(minutes_to_hours, na_action='ignore')
>>> df_hours
system_minutes  user_minutes
0             0.0           0.0
1             0.5          0.25

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame({'A': [0, 0], 'B': [4, 4]})
>>> df2 = bpd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [3, 3]})
>>> take_smaller = lambda s1, s2: s1 if s1.sum() < s2.sum() else s2
>>> df1.combine(df2, take_smaller)

<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

Parameters
Name	Description
other	DataFrame The DataFrame to merge column-wise.
func	function Function that takes two series as inputs and return a Series or a scalar. Used to merge the two dataframes column by columns.
fill_value	scalar value, default None The value to fill NaNs with prior to passing any column to the merge func.
overwrite	bool, default True If True, columns in self that do not exist in other will be overwritten with NaNs.

Returns
Type	Description
DataFrame	Combination of the provided DataFrames.

combine_first

combine_first(other: bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame)

Update null elements with value in the same location in other.

Combine two DataFrame objects by filling null values in one DataFrame with non-null values from other DataFrame. The row and column indexes of the resulting DataFrame will be the union of the two. The resulting dataframe contains the 'first' dataframe values and overrides the second one values where both first.loc[index, col] and second.loc[index, col] are not missing values, upon calling first.combine_first(second).

dot

dot(other: _DataFrameOrSeries) -> _DataFrameOrSeries

Compute the matrix multiplication between the DataFrame and other.

This method computes the matrix product between the DataFrame and the values of an other Series or DataFrame.

It can also be called using self @ other.

Note: The dimensions of DataFrame and other must be compatible in order to compute the matrix multiplication. In addition, the column names of DataFrame and the index of other must contain the same values, as they will be aligned prior to the multiplication.

The dot method for Series computes the inner product, instead of the matrix product here.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> left = bpd.DataFrame([[0, 1, -2, -1], [1, 1, 1, 1]])
>>> left
   0  1   2   3
0  0  1  -2  -1
1  1  1   1   1
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 4 columns]
>>> right = bpd.DataFrame([[0, 1], [1, 2], [-1, -1], [2, 0]])
>>> right
    0   1
0   0   1
1   1   2
2  -1  -1
3   2   0
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]
>>> left.dot(right)
   0  1
0  1  4
1  2  2
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

You can also use the operator @ for the dot product:

>>> left @ right
   0  1
0  1  4
1  2  2
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

The right input can be a Series, in which case the result will also be a Series:

>>> right = bpd.Series([1, 2, -1,0])
>>> left @ right
0    4
1    2
dtype: Int64

Any user defined index of the left matrix and columns of the right matrix will reflect in the result.

>>> left = bpd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3], [2, 5, 7]], index=["alpha", "beta"])
>>> left
       0  1  2
alpha  1  2  3
beta   2  5  7
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 3 columns]
>>> right = bpd.DataFrame([[2, 4, 8], [1, 5, 10], [3, 6, 9]], columns=["red", "green", "blue"])
>>> right
   red  green  blue
0    2      4     8
1    1      5    10

    ] = None,
    as_index: bool = True,
    dropna: bool = True
) -> bigframes.core.groupby.DataFrameGroupBy

Group DataFrame by columns.

A groupby operation involves some combination of splitting the object, applying a function, and combining the results. This can be used to group large amounts of data and compute operations on these groups.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'Animal': ['Falcon', 'Falcon',
...                                'Parrot', 'Parrot'],
...                     'Max Speed': [380., 370., 24., 26.]})
>>> df
   Animal  Max Speed
0  Falcon      380.0
1  Falcon      370.0
2  Parrot       24.0
3  Parrot       26.0
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.groupby(['Animal'])['Max Speed'].mean()
Animal
Falcon    375.0
Parrot     25.0
Name: Max Speed, dtype: Float64

We can also choose to include NA in group keys or not by setting dropna:

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3],[1, None, 4], [2, 1, 3], [1, 2, 2]],
...                    columns=["a", "b", "c"])
>>> df.groupby(by=["b"]).sum()
     a  c
b
1.0  2  3
2.0  2  5
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.groupby(by=["b"], dropna=False).sum()
      a  c
b
1.0   2  3
2.0   2  5
<NA>  1  4
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns]

We can also choose to return object with group labels or not by setting as_index:

>>> df.groupby(by=["b"], as_index=False).sum()
     b  a  c
0  1.0  2  3
1  2.0  2  5
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 3 columns]

Parameters
Name	Description
by	str, Sequence[str] A label or list of labels may be passed to group by the columns in self. Notice that a tuple is interpreted as a (single) key.
level	int, level name, or sequence of such, default None If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), group by a particular level or levels. Do not specify both by and level.
as_index	bool, default True Default True. Return object with group labels as the index. Only relevant for DataFrame input. as_index=False is effectively "SQL-style" grouped output. This argument has no effect on filtrations such as head(), tail(), nth() and in transformations.
dropna	bool, default True Default True. If True, and if group keys contain NA values, NA values together with row/column will be dropped. If False, NA values will also be treated as the key in groups.

Returns
Type	Description
bigframes.core.groupby.SeriesGroupBy	A groupby object that contains information about the groups.

gt

gt(other: typing.Any, axis: str | int = "columns") -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Get 'greater than' of DataFrame and other, element-wise (binary operator >).

Among flexible wrappers (eq, ne, le, lt, ge, gt) to comparison operators.

Equivalent to ==, !=, <=, <, >=, > with support to choose axis (rows or columns) and level for comparison.

Note: Mismatched indices will be unioned together. NaN values in floating point columns are considered different (i.e. NaN != NaN).

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'angles': [0, 3, 4],

Parameters
Name	Description
other	scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.
axis	{0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 'columns' Whether to compare by the index (0 or 'index') or columns (1 or 'columns').

Returns
Type	Description
DataFrame	DataFrame of bool: The result of the comparison.

head

head(n: int = 5) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Return the first n rows.

This function returns the first n rows for the object based on position. It is useful for quickly testing if your object has the right type of data in it.

For negative values of n, this function returns all rows except the last |n| rows, equivalent to df[:n].

If n is larger than the number of rows, this function returns all rows.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'animal': ['alligator', 'bee', 'falcon', 'lion',
...                     'monkey', 'parrot', 'shark', 'whale', 'zebra']})

    buf=None,
    max_cols: typing.Optional[int] = None,
    memory_usage: typing.Optional[bool] = None,
    show_counts: typing.Optional[bool] = None,
)

Print a concise summary of a DataFrame.

This method prints information about a DataFrame including the index dtypeand columns, non-null values and memory usage.

Parameters
Name	Description
verbose	bool, optional Whether to print the full summary. By default, the setting in pandas.options.display.max_info_columns is followed.
buf	writable buffer, defaults to sys.stdout Where to send the output. By default, the output is printed to sys.stdout. Pass a writable buffer if you need to further process the output.
max_cols	int, optional When to switch from the verbose to the truncated output. If the DataFrame has more than max_cols columns, the truncated output is used. By default, the setting in pandas.options.display.max_info_columns is used.
memory_usage	bool, optional Specifies whether total memory usage of the DataFrame elements (including the index) should be displayed. By default, this follows the pandas.options.display.memory_usage setting. True always show memory usage. False never shows memory usage. Memory estimation is made based in column dtype and number of rows assuming values consume the same memory amount for corresponding dtypes.
show_counts	bool, optional Whether to show the non-null counts. By default, this is shown only if the DataFrame is smaller than pandas.options.display.max_info_rows and pandas.options.display.max_info_columns. A value of True always shows the counts, and False never shows the counts.

Parameter
Name	Description
method	str, default 'linear' Interpolation technique to use. Only 'linear' supported. 'linear': Ignore the index and treat the values as equally spaced. This is the only method supported on MultiIndexes. 'index', 'values': use the actual numerical values of the index. 'pad': Fill in NaNs using existing values. 'nearest', 'zero', 'slinear': Emulates scipy.interpolate.interp1d

Returns
Type	Description
DataFrame	Returns the same object type as the caller, interpolated at some or all NaN values

isin

isin(values) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Whether each element in the DataFrame is contained in values.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'num_legs': [2, 4], 'num_wings': [2, 0]},
...                    index=['falcon', 'dog'])
>>> df
        num_legs  num_wings

You can also use arithmetic operator <=:

>>> df["degrees"] <= 180
circle       False
triangle      True
rectangle    False
Name: degrees, dtype: boolean

Parameters
Name	Description
other	scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.

map

map(func, na_action: typing.Optional[str] = None) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Apply a function to a Dataframe elementwise.

Note: In pandas 2.1.0, DataFrame.applymap is deprecated and renamed to DataFrame.map.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

Let's use reuse=False flag to make sure a new remote_function is created every time we run the following code, but you can skip it to potentially reuse a previously deployed remote_function from the same user defined function.

>>> @bpd.remote_function([int], float, reuse=False)
... def minutes_to_hours(x):
...     return x/60

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {"system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, 90, 120],
...      "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6]})
>>> df_minutes
system_minutes  user_minutes
0               0             0
1              30            15
2              60            75
3              90            90
4             120             6
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df_hours = df_minutes.map(minutes_to_hours)
>>> df_hours
system_minutes  user_minutes
0             0.0           0.0
1             0.5          0.25

3             1.5           1.5
4             2.0           0.1
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns]

If there are NA/None values in the data, you can ignore applying the remote function on such values by specifying na_action='ignore'.

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         "system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, None, 90, 120, bpd.NA],
...         "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6, None, bpd.NA]
...     }, dtype="Int64")
>>> df_hours = df_minutes.map(minutes_to_hours, na_action='ignore')
>>> df_hours
system_minutes  user_minutes
0             0.0           0.0
1             0.5          0.25

merge

merge(
    right: bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame,
    how: typing.Literal["inner", "left", "outer", "right", "cross"] = "inner",
    on: typing.Optional[
        typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]]
    ] = None,
    *,
    left_on: typing.Optional[
        typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]]
    ] = None,
    right_on: typing.Optional[
        typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]]
    ] = None,
    sort: bool = False,
    suffixes: tuple[str, str] = ("_x", "_y")
) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Merge DataFrame objects with a database-style join.

The join is done on columns or indexes. If joining columns on columns, the DataFrame indexes will be ignored. Otherwise if joining indexes on indexes or indexes on a column or columns, the index will be passed on. When performing a cross merge, no column specifications to merge on are allowed.

Warning: If both key columns contain rows where the key is a null value, those rows will be matched against each other. This is different from usual SQL join behaviour and can lead to unexpected results.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

Merge DataFrames df1 and df2 by specifiying type of merge:

>>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame({'a': ['foo', 'bar'], 'b': [1, 2]})

pct_change

pct_change(periods: int = 1) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Fractional change between the current and a prior element.

Computes the fractional change from the immediately previous row by default. This is useful in comparing the fraction of change in a time series of elements.

Note: Despite the name of this method, it calculates fractional change (also known as per unit change or relative change) and not percentage change. If you need the percentage change, multiply these values by 100.

Parameter
Name	Description
periods	int, default 1 Periods to shift for forming percent change.

Returns
Type	Description
Series or DataFrame	The same type as the calling object.

peek

peek(n: int = 5, *, force: bool = False) -> pandas.core.frame.DataFrame

Preview n arbitrary rows from the dataframe. No guarantees about row selection or ordering. DataFrame.peek(force=False) will always be very fast, but will not succeed if data requires full data scanning. Using force=True will always succeed, but may be perform expensive computations.

Parameters
Name	Description
n	int, default 5 The number of rows to select from the dataframe. Which N rows are returned is non-deterministic.
force	bool, default False If the data cannot be peeked efficiently, the dataframe will instead be fully materialized as part of the operation if force=True. If force=False, the operation will throw a ValueError.

Exceptions
Type	Description
ValueError	If force=False and data cannot be efficiently peeked.

Returns
Type	Description
pandas.DataFrame	A pandas DataFrame with n rows.

pivot

pivot(
    *,
    columns: typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]],
    index: typing.Optional[
        typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]]
    ] = None,
    values: typing.Optional[
        typing.Union[typing.Hashable, typing.Sequence[typing.Hashable]]
    ] = None
) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Return reshaped DataFrame organized by given index / column values.

Reshape data (produce a "pivot" table) based on column values. Uses unique values from specified index / columns to form axes of the resulting DataFrame. This function does not support data aggregation, multiple values will result in a MultiIndex in the columns.

Note: BigQuery supports up to 10000 columns. Pivot operations on columns with too many unique values will fail if they would exceed this limit.

Note: The validity of the pivot operation is not checked. If columns and index do not together uniquely identify input rows, the output will be silently non-deterministic.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     "foo": ["one", "one", "one", "two", "two"],
...     "bar": ["A", "B", "C", "A", "B"],
...     "baz": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
...     "zoo": ['x', 'y', 'z', 'q', 'w']
... })

>>> df
    foo     bar     baz     zoo
0   one       A       1       x
1   one       B       2       y
2   one       C       3       z
3   two       A       4       q
4   two       B       5       w
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 4 columns]

Using pivot without optional arguments:

>>> df.pivot(columns='foo')
        bar             baz             zoo
foo  one     two     one     two     one     two
0      A    <NA>       1    <NA>       x    <NA>

replace

replace(to_replace: typing.Any, value: typing.Any = None, *, regex: bool = False)

Replace values given in to_replace with value.

Values of the Series/DataFrame are replaced with other values dynamically. This differs from updating with .loc or .iloc, which require you to specify a location to update with some value.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     'int_col': [1, 1, 2, 3],
...     'string_col': ["a", "b", "c", "b"],
...     })

Using scalar to_replace and value:

>>> df.replace("b", "e")
   int_col string_col
0        1          a
1        1          e
2        2          c
3        3          e
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

Using dictionary:

>>> df.replace({"a": "e", 2: 5})
   int_col string_col
0        1          e
1        1          b
2        5          c
3        3          b
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

Using regex:

>>> df.replace("[ab]", "e", regex=True)
   int_col string_col
0        1          e
1        1          e
2        2          c
3        3          e
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

Parameters
Name	Description
to_replace	str, regex, list, int, float or None How to find the values that will be replaced. numeric: numeric values equal to to_replace will be replaced with value str: string exactly matching to_replace will be replaced with value regex: regexs matching to_replace will be replaced withvalue list of str, regex, or numeric: First, if to_replace and value are both lists, they must be the same length. Second, if regex=True then all of the strings in both lists will be interpreted as regexs otherwise they will match directly. This doesn't matter much for value since there are only a few possible substitution regexes you can use. str, regex and numeric rules apply as above.
value	scalar, default None Value to replace any values matching to_replace with. For a DataFrame a dict of values can be used to specify which value to use for each column (columns not in the dict will not be filled). Regular expressions, strings and lists or dicts of such objects are also allowed.
regex	bool, default False Whether to interpret to_replace and/or value as regular expressions. If this is True then to_replace must be a string.

Returns
Type	Description
Series/DataFrame	Object after replacement.

reset_index

reset_index(*, drop: bool = False) -> bigframes.dataframe.DataFrame

Reset the index.

Reset the index of the DataFrame, and use the default one instead.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> import numpy as np
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([('bird', 389.0),
...                     ('bird', 24.0),
...                     ('mammal', 80.5),
...                     ('mammal', np.nan)],
...                    index=['falcon', 'parrot', 'lion', 'monkey'],
...                    columns=('class', 'max_speed'))
>>> df
         class  max_speed
falcon    bird      389.0
parrot    bird       24.0
lion    mammal       80.5
monkey  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

When we reset the index, the old index is added as a column, and a new sequential index is used:

>>> df.reset_index()
    index   class  max_speed
0  falcon    bird      389.0
1  parrot    bird       24.0
2    lion  mammal       80.5
3  monkey  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 3 columns]

We can use the drop parameter to avoid the old index being added as a column:

>>> df.reset_index(drop=True)
    class  max_speed
0    bird      389.0
1    bird       24.0
2  mammal       80.5
3  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

You can also use reset_index with MultiIndex.

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> index = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('bird', 'falcon'),
...                                    ('bird', 'parrot'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'lion'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'monkey')],
...                                   names=['class', 'name'])
>>> columns = ['speed', 'max']
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([(389.0, 'fly'),
...                     (24.0, 'fly'),
...                     (80.5, 'run'),
...                     (np.nan, 'jump')],
...                    index=index,
...                    columns=columns)
>>> df
               speed   max
class  name
bird   falcon  389.0   fly
       parrot   24.0   fly
mammal lion     80.5   run
       monkey   <NA>  jump
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.reset_index()
    class    name  speed   max
0    bird  falcon  389.0   fly
1    bird  parrot   24.0   fly
2  mammal    lion   80.5   run
3  mammal  monkey   <NA>  jump
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 4 columns]

>>> df.reset_index(drop=True)
   speed   max
0  389.0   fly
1   24.0   fly
2   80.5   run
3   <NA>  jump

to_excel

to_excel(excel_writer, sheet_name: str = "Sheet1", **kwargs) -> None

Write DataFrame to an Excel sheet.

To write a single DataFrame to an Excel .xlsx file it is only necessary to specify a target file name. To write to multiple sheets it is necessary to create an ExcelWriter object with a target file name, and specify a sheet in the file to write to.

Multiple sheets may be written to by specifying unique sheet_name. With all data written to the file it is necessary to save the changes. Note that creating an ExcelWriter object with a file name that already exists will result in the contents of the existing file being erased.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> import tempfile
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})

Equivalent to dataframe / other. With reverse version, rtruediv.

Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.

Note: Mismatched indices will be unioned together.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     'A': [1, 2, 3],
...     'B': [4, 5, 6],
...     })

You can use method name:

>>> df['A'].truediv(df['B'])
0    0.25
1     0.4
2     0.5
dtype: Float64

You can also use arithmetic operator /:

>>> df['A'] / (df['B'])
0    0.25
1     0.4
2     0.5
dtype: Float64

Parameters
Name	Description
other	float, int, or Series Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.
axis	{0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'} Whether to compare by the index (0 or 'index') or columns. (1 or 'columns'). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.

Returns

Returns a DataFrame having a new level of column labels whose inner-most level consists of the pivoted index labels.

If the index is not a MultiIndex, the output will be a Series (the analogue of stack when the columns are not a MultiIndex).

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 3], 'B': [2, 4]}, index=['foo', 'bar'])
