.. _whatsnew_144: What's new in 1.4.4 (August 31, 2022) ------------------------------------- These are the changes in pandas 1.4.4. See :ref:`release` for a full changelog including other versions of pandas. {{ header }} .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_144.regressions: Fixed regressions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.fillna` not working on a :class:`DataFrame` with a :class:`MultiIndex` (:issue:`47649`) - Fixed regression in taking NULL :class:`objects` from a :class:`DataFrame` causing a segmentation violation. These NULL values are created by :meth:`numpy.empty_like` (:issue:`46848`) - Fixed regression in :func:`concat` materializing the :class:`Index` during sorting even if the :class:`Index` was already sorted (:issue:`47501`) - Fixed regression in :func:`concat` or :func:`merge` handling of all-NaN ExtensionArrays with custom attributes (:issue:`47762`) - Fixed regression in calling bitwise numpy ufuncs (for example, ``np.bitwise_and``) on Index objects (:issue:`46769`) - Fixed regression in :func:`cut` when using a ``datetime64`` IntervalIndex as bins (:issue:`46218`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.select_dtypes` where ``include="number"`` included :class:`BooleanDtype` (:issue:`46870`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.loc` raising error when indexing with a ``NamedTuple`` (:issue:`48124`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.loc` not updating the cache correctly after values were set (:issue:`47867`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.loc` not aligning index in some cases when setting a :class:`DataFrame` (:issue:`47578`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.loc` setting a length-1 array like value to a single value in the DataFrame (:issue:`46268`) - Fixed regression when slicing with :meth:`DataFrame.loc` with :class:`DatetimeIndex` with a :class:`.DateOffset` object for its ``freq`` (:issue:`46671`) - Fixed regression in setting ``None`` or non-string value into a ``string``-dtype Series using a mask (:issue:`47628`) - Fixed regression in updating a DataFrame column through Series ``__setitem__`` (using chained assignment) not updating column values inplace and using too much memory (:issue:`47172`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.select_dtypes` returning a view on the original DataFrame (:issue:`48090`) - Fixed regression using custom Index subclasses (for example, used in xarray) with :meth:`~DataFrame.reset_index` or :meth:`Index.insert` (:issue:`47071`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`~Index.intersection` when the :class:`DatetimeIndex` has dates crossing daylight savings time (:issue:`46702`) - Fixed regression in :func:`merge` throwing an error when passing a :class:`Series` with a multi-level name (:issue:`47946`) - Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.eval` creating a copy when updating inplace (:issue:`47449`) - Fixed regression where getting a row using :meth:`DataFrame.iloc` with :class:`SparseDtype` would raise (:issue:`46406`) .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_144.bug_fixes: Bug fixes ~~~~~~~~~ - The ``FutureWarning`` raised when passing arguments (other than ``filepath_or_buffer``) as positional in :func:`read_csv` is now raised at the correct stacklevel (:issue:`47385`) - Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.to_sql` when ``method`` was a ``callable`` that did not return an ``int`` and would raise a ``TypeError`` (:issue:`46891`) - Bug in :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.value_counts` where ``subset`` had no effect (:issue:`46383`) - Bug when getting values with :meth:`DataFrame.loc` with a list of keys causing an internal inconsistency that could lead to a disconnect between ``frame.at[x, y]`` vs ``frame[y].loc[x]`` (:issue:`22372`) - Bug in the :meth:`Series.dt.strftime` accessor return a float instead of object dtype Series for all-NaT input, which also causes a spurious deprecation warning (:issue:`45858`) .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_144.other: Other ~~~~~ - The minimum version of Cython needed to compile pandas is now ``0.29.32`` (:issue:`47978`) .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_144.contributors: Contributors ~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. contributors:: v1.4.3..v1.4.4|HEAD
