.. _whatsnew_200: What's new in 2.0.0 (April 3, 2023) ----------------------------------- These are the changes in pandas 2.0.0. See :ref:`release` for a full changelog including other versions of pandas. {{ header }} .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_200.enhancements: Enhancements ~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _whatsnew_200.enhancements.optional_dependency_management_pip: Installing optional dependencies with pip extras ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When installing pandas using pip, sets of optional dependencies can also be installed by specifying extras. .. code-block:: bash pip install "pandas[performance, aws]>=2.0.0" The available extras, found in the :ref:`installation guide`, are ``[all, performance, computation, fss, aws, gcp, excel, parquet, feather, hdf5, spss, postgresql, mysql, sql-other, html, xml, plot, output_formatting, clipboard, compression, test]`` (:issue:`39164`). .. _whatsnew_200.enhancements.index_can_hold_numpy_numeric_dtypes: :class:`Index` can now hold numpy numeric dtypes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It is now possible to use any numpy numeric dtype in a :class:`Index` (:issue:`42717`). Previously it was only possible to use ``int64``, ``uint64`` & ``float64`` dtypes: .. code-block:: ipython In [1]: pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.int8) Out[1]: Int64Index([1, 2, 3], dtype="int64") In [2]: pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.uint16) Out[2]: UInt64Index([1, 2, 3], dtype="uint64") In [3]: pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.float32) Out[3]: Float64Index([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], dtype="float64") :class:`Int64Index`, :class:`UInt64Index` & :class:`Float64Index` were deprecated in pandas version 1.4 and have now been removed. Instead :class:`Index` should be used directly, and can it now take all numpy numeric dtypes, i.e. ``int8``/ ``int16``/``int32``/``int64``/``uint8``/``uint16``/``uint32``/``uint64``/``float32``/``float64`` dtypes: .. ipython:: python pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.int8) pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.uint16) pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.float32) The ability for :class:`Index` to hold the numpy numeric dtypes has meant some changes in pandas functionality. In particular, operations that previously were forced to create 64-bit indexes, can now create indexes with lower bit sizes, e.g. 32-bit indexes. Below is a possibly non-exhaustive list of changes: 1. Instantiating using a numpy numeric array now follows the dtype of the numpy array. Previously, all indexes created from numpy numeric arrays were forced to 64-bit. Now, for example, ``Index(np.array([1, 2, 3]))`` will be ``int32`` on 32-bit systems, where it previously would have been ``int64`` even on 32-bit systems. Instantiating :class:`Index` using a list of numbers will still return 64bit dtypes, e.g. ``Index([1, 2, 3])`` will have a ``int64`` dtype, which is the same as previously. 2. The various numeric datetime attributes of :class:`DatetimeIndex` (:attr:`~DatetimeIndex.day`, :attr:`~DatetimeIndex.month`, :attr:`~DatetimeIndex.year` etc.) were previously in of dtype ``int64``, while they were ``int32`` for :class:`arrays.DatetimeArray`. They are now ``int32`` on :class:`DatetimeIndex` also: .. ipython:: python idx = pd.date_range(start='1/1/2018', periods=3, freq='ME') idx.array.year idx.year 3. Level dtypes on Indexes from :meth:`Series.sparse.from_coo` are now of dtype ``int32``, the same as they are on the ``rows``/``cols`` on a scipy sparse matrix. Previously they were of dtype ``int64``. .. ipython:: python from scipy import sparse A = sparse.coo_matrix( ([3.0, 1.0, 2.0], ([1, 0, 0], [0, 2, 3])), shape=(3, 4) ) ser = pd.Series.sparse.from_coo(A) ser.index.dtypes 4. :class:`Index` cannot be instantiated using a float16 dtype. Previously instantiating an :class:`Index` using dtype ``float16`` resulted in a :class:`Float64Index` with a ``float64`` dtype. It now raises a ``NotImplementedError``: .. ipython:: python :okexcept: pd.Index([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.float16) .. _whatsnew_200.enhancements.io_dtype_backend: Argument ``dtype_backend``, to return pyarrow-backed or numpy-backed nullable dtypes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The following functions gained a new keyword ``dtype_backend`` (:issue:`36712`) * :func:`read_csv` * :func:`read_clipboard` * :func:`read_fwf` * :func:`read_excel` * :func:`read_html` * :func:`read_xml` * :func:`read_json` * :func:`read_sql` * :func:`read_sql_query` * :func:`read_sql_table` * :func:`read_parquet` * :func:`read_orc` * :func:`read_feather` * :func:`read_spss` * :func:`to_numeric` * :meth:`DataFrame.convert_dtypes` * :meth:`Series.convert_dtypes` When this option is set to ``"numpy_nullable"`` it will return a :class:`DataFrame` that is backed by nullable dtypes. When this keyword is set to ``"pyarrow"``, then these functions will return pyarrow-backed nullable :class:`ArrowDtype` DataFrames (:issue:`48957`, :issue:`49997`): * :func:`read_csv` * :func:`read_clipboard` * :func:`read_fwf` * :func:`read_excel` * :func:`read_html` * :func:`read_xml` * :func:`read_json` * :func:`read_sql` * :func:`read_sql_query` * :func:`read_sql_table` * :func:`read_parquet` * :func:`read_orc` * :func:`read_feather` * :func:`read_spss` * :func:`to_numeric` * :meth:`DataFrame.convert_dtypes` * :meth:`Series.convert_dtypes` .. ipython:: python import io data = io.StringIO("""a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i 1,2.5,True,a,,,,, 3,4.5,False,b,6,7.5,True,a, """) df = pd.read_csv(data, dtype_backend="pyarrow") df.dtypes data.seek(0) df_pyarrow = pd.read_csv(data, dtype_backend="pyarrow", engine="pyarrow") df_pyarrow.dtypes Copy-on-Write improvements ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - A new lazy copy mechanism that defers the copy until the object in question is modified was added to the methods listed in :ref:`Copy-on-Write optimizations `. These methods return views when Copy-on-Write is enabled, which provides a significant performance improvement compared to the regular execution (:issue:`49473`). - Accessing a single column of a DataFrame as a Series (e.g. ``df["col"]``) now always returns a new object every time it is constructed when Copy-on-Write is enabled (not returning multiple times an identical, cached Series object). This ensures that those Series objects correctly follow the Copy-on-Write rules (:issue:`49450`) - The :class:`Series` constructor will now create a lazy copy (deferring the copy until a modification to the data happens) when constructing a Series from an existing Series with the default of ``copy=False`` (:issue:`50471`) - The :class:`DataFrame` constructor will now create a lazy copy (deferring the copy until a modification to the data happens) when constructing from an existing :class:`DataFrame` with the default of ``copy=False`` (:issue:`51239`) - The :class:`DataFrame` constructor, when constructing a DataFrame from a dictionary of Series objects and specifying ``copy=False``, will now use a lazy copy of those Series objects for the columns of the DataFrame (:issue:`50777`) - The :class:`DataFrame` constructor, when constructing a DataFrame from a :class:`Series` or :class:`Index` and specifying ``copy=False``, will now respect Copy-on-Write. - The :class:`DataFrame` and :class:`Series` constructors, when constructing from a NumPy array, will now copy the array by default to avoid mutating the :class:`DataFrame` / :class:`Series` when mutating the array. Specify ``copy=False`` to get the old behavior. When setting ``copy=False`` pandas does not guarantee correct Copy-on-Write behavior when the NumPy array is modified after creation of the :class:`DataFrame` / :class:`Series`. - The :meth:`DataFrame.from_records` will now respect Copy-on-Write when called with a :class:`DataFrame`. - Trying to set values using chained assignment (for example, ``df["a"][1:3] = 0``) will now always raise a warning when Copy-on-Write is enabled. In this mode, chained assignment can never work because we are always setting into a temporary object that is the result of an indexing operation (getitem), which under Copy-on-Write always behaves as a copy. Thus, assigning through a chain can never update the original Series or DataFrame. Therefore, an informative warning is raised to the user to avoid silently doing nothing (:issue:`49467`) - :meth:`DataFrame.replace` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism when ``inplace=True``. - :meth:`DataFrame.transpose` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism. - Arithmetic operations that can be inplace, e.g. ``ser *= 2`` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism. - :meth:`DataFrame.__getitem__` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism when the :class:`DataFrame` has :class:`MultiIndex` columns. - :meth:`Series.__getitem__` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism when the :class:`Series` has a :class:`MultiIndex`. - :meth:`Series.view` will now respect the Copy-on-Write mechanism. Copy-on-Write can be enabled through one of .. code-block:: python pd.set_option("mode.copy_on_write", True) .. code-block:: python pd.options.mode.copy_on_write = True Alternatively, copy on write can be enabled locally through: .. code-block:: python with pd.option_context("mode.copy_on_write", True): ... .. _whatsnew_200.enhancements.other: Other enhancements ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - Added support for ``str`` accessor methods when using :class:`ArrowDtype` with a ``pyarrow.string`` type (:issue:`50325`) - Added support for ``dt`` accessor methods when using :class:`ArrowDtype` with a ``pyarrow.timestamp`` type (:issue:`50954`) - :func:`read_sas` now supports using ``encoding='infer'`` to correctly read and use the encoding specified by the sas file. (:issue:`48048`) - :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.quantile`, :meth:`.SeriesGroupBy.quantile` and :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.std` now preserve nullable dtypes instead of casting to numpy dtypes (:issue:`37493`) - :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.std`, :meth:`.SeriesGroupBy.std` now support datetime64, timedelta64, and :class:`DatetimeTZDtype` dtypes (:issue:`48481`) - :meth:`Series.add_suffix`, :meth:`DataFrame.add_suffix`, :meth:`Series.add_prefix` and :meth:`DataFrame.add_prefix` support an ``axis`` argument. If ``axis`` is set, the default behaviour of which axis to consider can be overwritten (:issue:`47819`) - :func:`.testing.assert_frame_equal` now shows the first element where the DataFrames differ, analogously to ``pytest``'s output (:issue:`47910`) - Added ``index`` parameter to :meth:`DataFrame.to_dict` (:issue:`46398`) - Added support for extension array dtypes in :func:`merge` (:issue:`44240`) - Added metadata propagation for binary operators on :class:`DataFrame` (:issue:`28283`) - Added ``cumsum``, ``cumprod``, ``cummin`` and ``cummax`` to the ``ExtensionArray`` interface via ``_accumulate`` (:issue:`28385`) - :class:`.CategoricalConversionWarning`, :class:`.InvalidComparison`, :class:`.InvalidVersion`, :class:`.LossySetitemError`, and :class:`.NoBufferPresent` are now exposed in ``pandas.errors`` (:issue:`27656`) - Fix ``test`` optional_extra by adding missing test package ``pytest-asyncio`` (:issue:`48361`) - :func:`DataFrame.astype` exception message thrown improved to include column name when type conversion is not possible. (:issue:`47571`) - :func:`date_range` now supports a ``unit`` keyword ("s", "ms", "us", or "ns") to specify the desired resolution of the output index (:issue:`49106`) - :func:`timedelta_range` now supports a ``unit`` keyword ("s", "ms", "us", or "ns") to specify the desired resolution of the output index (:issue:`49824`) - :meth:`DataFrame.to_json` now supports a ``mode`` keyword with supported inputs 'w' and 'a'. Defaulting to 'w', 'a' can be used when lines=True and orient='records' to append record oriented json lines to an existing json file. (:issue:`35849`) - Added ``name`` parameter to :meth:`IntervalIndex.from_breaks`, :meth:`IntervalIndex.from_arrays` and :meth:`IntervalIndex.from_tuples` (:issue:`48911`) - Improve exception message when using :func:`.testing.assert_frame_equal` on a :class:`DataFrame` to include the column that is compared (:issue:`50323`) - Improved error message for :func:`merge_asof` when join-columns were duplicated (:issue:`50102`) - Added support for extension array dtypes to :func:`get_dummies` (:issue:`32430`) - Added :meth:`Index.infer_objects` analogous to :meth:`Series.infer_objects` (:issue:`50034`) - Added ``copy`` parameter to :meth:`Series.infer_objects` and :meth:`DataFrame.infer_objects`, passing ``False`` will avoid making copies for series or columns that are already non-object or where no better dtype can be inferred (:issue:`50096`) - :meth:`DataFrame.plot.hist` now recognizes ``xlabel`` and ``ylabel`` arguments (:issue:`49793`) - :meth:`Series.drop_duplicates` has gained ``ignore_index`` keyword to reset index (:issue:`48304`) - :meth:`Series.dropna` and :meth:`DataFrame.dropna` has gained ``ignore_index`` keyword to reset index (:issue:`31725`) - Improved error message in :func:`to_datetime` for non-ISO8601 formats, informing users about the position of the first error (:issue:`50361`) - Improved error message when trying to align :class:`DataFrame` objects (for example, in :func:`DataFrame.compare`) to clarify that "identically labelled" refers to both index and columns (:issue:`50083`) - Added support for :meth:`Index.min` and :meth:`Index.max` for pyarrow string dtypes (:issue:`51397`) - Added :meth:`DatetimeIndex.as_unit` and :meth:`TimedeltaIndex.as_unit` to convert to different resolutions; supported resolutions are "s", "ms", "us", and "ns" (:issue:`50616`) - Added :meth:`Series.dt.unit` and :meth:`Series.dt.as_unit` to convert to different resolutions; supported resolutions are "s", "ms", "us", and "ns" (:issue:`51223`) - Added new argument ``dtype`` to :func:`read_sql` to be consistent with :func:`read_sql_query` (:issue:`50797`) - :func:`read_csv`, :func:`read_table`, :func:`read_fwf` and :func:`read_excel` now accept ``date_format`` (:issue:`50601`) - :func:`to_datetime` now accepts ``"ISO8601"`` as an argument to ``format``, which will match any ISO8601 string (but possibly not identically-formatted) (:issue:`50411`) - :func:`to_datetime` now accepts ``"mixed"`` as an argument to ``format``, which will infer the format for each element individually (:issue:`50972`) - Added new argument ``engine`` to :func:`read_json` to support parsing JSON with pyarrow by specifying ``engine="pyarrow"`` (:issue:`48893`) - Added support for SQLAlchemy 2.0 (:issue:`40686`) - Added support for ``decimal`` parameter when ``engine="pyarrow"`` in :func:`read_csv` (:issue:`51302`) - :class:`Index` set operations :meth:`Index.union`, :meth:`Index.intersection`, :meth:`Index.difference`, and :meth:`Index.symmetric_difference` now support ``sort=True``, which will always return a sorted result, unlike the default ``sort=None`` which does not sort in some cases (:issue:`25151`) - Added new escape mode "latex-math" to avoid escaping "$" in formatter (:issue:`50040`) .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_200.notable_bug_fixes: Notable bug fixes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ These are bug fixes that might have notable behavior changes. .. _whatsnew_200.notable_bug_fixes.cumsum_cumprod_overflow: :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.cumsum` and :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.cumprod` overflow instead of lossy casting to float ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In previous versions we cast to float when applying ``cumsum`` and ``cumprod`` which lead to incorrect results even if the result could be hold by ``int64`` dtype. Additionally, the aggregation overflows consistent with numpy and the regular :meth:`DataFrame.cumprod` and :meth:`DataFrame.cumsum` methods when the limit of ``int64`` is reached (:issue:`37493`). *Old Behavior* .. code-block:: ipython In [1]: df = pd.DataFrame({"key": ["b"] * 7, "value": 625}) In [2]: df.groupby("key")["value"].cumprod()[5] Out[2]: 5.960464477539062e+16 We return incorrect results with the 6th value. *New Behavior* .. ipython:: python df = pd.DataFrame({"key": ["b"] * 7, "value": 625}) df.groupby("key")["value"].cumprod() We overflow with the 7th value, but the 6th value is still correct. .. _whatsnew_200.notable_bug_fixes.groupby_nth_filter: :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.nth` and :meth:`.SeriesGroupBy.nth` now behave as filtrations ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In previous versions of pandas, :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.nth` and :meth:`.SeriesGroupBy.nth` acted as if they were aggregations. However, for most inputs ``n``, they may return either zero or multiple rows per group. This means that they are filtrations, similar to e.g. :meth:`.DataFrameGroupBy.head`. pandas now treats them as filtrations (:issue:`13666`). .. ipython:: python df = pd.DataFrame({"a": [1, 1, 2, 1, 2], "b": [np.nan, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0]}) gb = df.groupby("a") *Old Behavior* .. code-block:: ipython In [5]: gb.nth(n=1) Out[5]: A B 1 1 2.0 4 2 5.0 *New Behavior* .. ipython:: python gb.nth(n=1) In particular, the index of the result is derived from the input by selecting the appropriate rows. Also, when ``n`` is larger than the group, no rows instead of ``NaN`` is returned. *Old Behavior* .. code-block:: ipython In [5]: gb.nth(n=3, dropna="any") Out[5]: B A 1 NaN 2 NaN *New Behavior* .. ipython:: python gb.nth(n=3, dropna="any") .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking: Backwards incompatible API changes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.unsupported_datetimelike_dtype_arg: Construction with datetime64 or timedelta64 dtype with unsupported resolution ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In past versions, when constructing a :class:`Series` or :class:`DataFrame` and passing a "datetime64" or "timedelta64" dtype with unsupported resolution (i.e. anything other than "ns"), pandas would silently replace the given dtype with its nanosecond analogue: *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [5]: pd.Series(["2016-01-01"], dtype="datetime64[s]") Out[5]: 0 2016-01-01 dtype: datetime64[ns] In [6] pd.Series(["2016-01-01"], dtype="datetime64[D]") Out[6]: 0 2016-01-01 dtype: datetime64[ns] In pandas 2.0 we support resolutions "s", "ms", "us", and "ns". When passing a supported dtype (e.g. "datetime64[s]"), the result now has exactly the requested dtype: *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python pd.Series(["2016-01-01"], dtype="datetime64[s]") With an un-supported dtype, pandas now raises instead of silently swapping in a supported dtype: *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python :okexcept: pd.Series(["2016-01-01"], dtype="datetime64[D]") .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.value_counts: Value counts sets the resulting name to ``count`` ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In past versions, when running :meth:`Series.value_counts`, the result would inherit the original object's name, and the result index would be nameless. This would cause confusion when resetting the index, and the column names would not correspond with the column values. Now, the result name will be ``'count'`` (or ``'proportion'`` if ``normalize=True`` was passed), and the index will be named after the original object (:issue:`49497`). *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [8]: pd.Series(['quetzal', 'quetzal', 'elk'], name='animal').value_counts() Out[2]: quetzal 2 elk 1 Name: animal, dtype: int64 *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python pd.Series(['quetzal', 'quetzal', 'elk'], name='animal').value_counts() Likewise for other ``value_counts`` methods (for example, :meth:`DataFrame.value_counts`). .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.astype_to_unsupported_datetimelike: Disallow astype conversion to non-supported datetime64/timedelta64 dtypes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In previous versions, converting a :class:`Series` or :class:`DataFrame` from ``datetime64[ns]`` to a different ``datetime64[X]`` dtype would return with ``datetime64[ns]`` dtype instead of the requested dtype. In pandas 2.0, support is added for "datetime64[s]", "datetime64[ms]", and "datetime64[us]" dtypes, so converting to those dtypes gives exactly the requested dtype: *Previous behavior*: .. ipython:: python idx = pd.date_range("2016-01-01", periods=3) ser = pd.Series(idx) *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [4]: ser.astype("datetime64[s]") Out[4]: 0 2016-01-01 1 2016-01-02 2 2016-01-03 dtype: datetime64[ns] With the new behavior, we get exactly the requested dtype: *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python ser.astype("datetime64[s]") For non-supported resolutions e.g. "datetime64[D]", we raise instead of silently ignoring the requested dtype: *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python :okexcept: ser.astype("datetime64[D]") For conversion from ``timedelta64[ns]`` dtypes, the old behavior converted to a floating point format. *Previous behavior*: .. ipython:: python idx = pd.timedelta_range("1 Day", periods=3) ser = pd.Series(idx) *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [7]: ser.astype("timedelta64[s]") Out[7]: 0 86400.0 1 172800.0 2 259200.0 dtype: float64 In [8]: ser.astype("timedelta64[D]") Out[8]: 0 1.0 1 2.0 2 3.0 dtype: float64 The new behavior, as for datetime64, either gives exactly the requested dtype or raises: *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python :okexcept: ser.astype("timedelta64[s]") ser.astype("timedelta64[D]") .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.default_to_stdlib_tzinfos: UTC and fixed-offset timezones default to standard-library tzinfo objects ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In previous versions, the default ``tzinfo`` object used to represent UTC was ``pytz.UTC``. In pandas 2.0, we default to ``datetime.timezone.utc`` instead. Similarly, for timezones represent fixed UTC offsets, we use ``datetime.timezone`` objects instead of ``pytz.FixedOffset`` objects. See (:issue:`34916`) *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [2]: ts = pd.Timestamp("2016-01-01", tz="UTC") In [3]: type(ts.tzinfo) Out[3]: pytz.UTC In [4]: ts2 = pd.Timestamp("2016-01-01 04:05:06-07:00") In [3]: type(ts2.tzinfo) Out[5]: pytz._FixedOffset *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python ts = pd.Timestamp("2016-01-01", tz="UTC") type(ts.tzinfo) ts2 = pd.Timestamp("2016-01-01 04:05:06-07:00") type(ts2.tzinfo) For timezones that are neither UTC nor fixed offsets, e.g. "US/Pacific", we continue to default to ``pytz`` objects. .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.zero_len_indexes: Empty DataFrames/Series will now default to have a ``RangeIndex`` ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Before, constructing an empty (where ``data`` is ``None`` or an empty list-like argument) :class:`Series` or :class:`DataFrame` without specifying the axes (``index=None``, ``columns=None``) would return the axes as empty :class:`Index` with object dtype. Now, the axes return an empty :class:`RangeIndex` (:issue:`49572`). *Previous behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [8]: pd.Series().index Out[8]: Index([], dtype='object') In [9] pd.DataFrame().axes Out[9]: [Index([], dtype='object'), Index([], dtype='object')] *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python pd.Series().index pd.DataFrame().axes .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.to_latex: DataFrame to LaTeX has a new render engine ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The existing :meth:`DataFrame.to_latex` has been restructured to utilise the extended implementation previously available under :meth:`.Styler.to_latex`. The arguments signature is similar, albeit ``col_space`` has been removed since it is ignored by LaTeX engines. This render engine also requires ``jinja2`` as a dependency which needs to be installed, since rendering is based upon jinja2 templates. The pandas latex options below are no longer used and have been removed. The generic max rows and columns arguments remain but for this functionality should be replaced by the Styler equivalents. The alternative options giving similar functionality are indicated below: - ``display.latex.escape``: replaced with ``styler.format.escape``, - ``display.latex.longtable``: replaced with ``styler.latex.environment``, - ``display.latex.multicolumn``, ``display.latex.multicolumn_format`` and ``display.latex.multirow``: replaced with ``styler.sparse.rows``, ``styler.sparse.columns``, ``styler.latex.multirow_align`` and ``styler.latex.multicol_align``, - ``display.latex.repr``: replaced with ``styler.render.repr``, - ``display.max_rows`` and ``display.max_columns``: replace with ``styler.render.max_rows``, ``styler.render.max_columns`` and ``styler.render.max_elements``. Note that due to this change some defaults have also changed: - ``multirow`` now defaults to *True*. - ``multirow_align`` defaults to *"r"* instead of *"l"*. - ``multicol_align`` defaults to *"r"* instead of *"l"*. - ``escape`` now defaults to *False*. Note that the behaviour of ``_repr_latex_`` is also changed. Previously setting ``display.latex.repr`` would generate LaTeX only when using nbconvert for a JupyterNotebook, and not when the user is running the notebook. Now the ``styler.render.repr`` option allows control of the specific output within JupyterNotebooks for operations (not just on nbconvert). See :issue:`39911`. .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.deps: Increased minimum versions for dependencies ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Some minimum supported versions of dependencies were updated. If installed, we now require: +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | Package | Minimum Version | Required | Changed | +===================+=================+==========+=========+ | mypy (dev) | 1.0 | | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | pytest (dev) | 7.0.0 | | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | pytest-xdist (dev)| 2.2.0 | | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | hypothesis (dev) | 6.34.2 | | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | python-dateutil | 2.8.2 | X | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ | tzdata | 2022.1 | X | X | +-------------------+-----------------+----------+---------+ For `optional libraries `_ the general recommendation is to use the latest version.

Datetimes are now parsed with a consistent format ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In the past, :func:`to_datetime` guessed the format for each element independently. This was appropriate for some cases where elements had mixed date formats - however, it would regularly cause problems when users expected a consistent format but the function would switch formats between elements. As of version 2.0.0, parsing will use a consistent format, determined by the first non-NA value (unless the user specifies a format, in which case that is used). *Old behavior*: .. code-block:: ipython In [1]: ser = pd.Series(['13-01-2000', '12-01-2000']) In [2]: pd.to_datetime(ser) Out[2]: 0 2000-01-13 1 2000-12-01 dtype: datetime64[ns] *New behavior*: .. ipython:: python :okwarning: ser = pd.Series(['13-01-2000', '12-01-2000']) pd.to_datetime(ser) Note that this affects :func:`read_csv` as well. If you still need to parse dates with inconsistent formats, you can use ``format='mixed'`` (possibly alongside ``dayfirst``) :: ser = pd.Series(['13-01-2000', '12 January 2000']) pd.to_datetime(ser, format='mixed', dayfirst=True) or, if your formats are all ISO8601 (but possibly not identically-formatted) :: ser = pd.Series(['2020-01-01', '2020-01-01 03:00']) pd.to_datetime(ser, format='ISO8601') .. _whatsnew_200.api_breaking.other: Other API changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - The ``tz``, ``nanosecond``, and ``unit`` keywords in the :class:`Timestamp` constructor are now keyword-only (:issue:`45307`, :issue:`32526`) - Passing ``nanoseconds`` greater than 999 or less than 0 in :class:`Timestamp` now raises a ``ValueError`` (:issue:`48538`, :issue:`48255`) - :func:`read_csv`: specifying an incorrect number of columns with ``index_col`` of now raises ``ParserError`` instead of ``IndexError`` when using the c parser. - Default value of ``dtype`` in :func:`get_dummies` is changed to ``bool`` from ``uint8`` (:issue:`45848`) - :meth:`DataFrame.astype`, :meth:`Series.astype`, and :meth:`DatetimeIndex.astype` casting datetime64 data to any of "datetime64[s]", "datetime64[ms]", "datetime64[us]" will return an object with the given resolution instead of coercing back to "datetime64[ns]" (:issue:`48928`) - :meth:`DataFrame.astype`, :meth:`Series.astype`, and :meth:`DatetimeIndex.astype` casting timedelta64 data to any of "timedelta64[s]", "timedelta64[ms]", "timedelta64[us]" will return an object with the given resolution instead of coercing to "float64" dtype (:issue:`48963`) - :meth:`DatetimeIndex.astype`, :meth:`TimedeltaIndex.astype`, :meth:`PeriodIndex.astype` :meth:`Series.astype`, :meth:`DataFrame.astype` with ``datetime64``, ``timedelta64`` or :class:`PeriodDtype` dtypes no longer allow converting to integer dtypes other than "int64", do ``obj.astype('int64', copy=False).astype(dtype)`` instead (:issue:`49715`) - :meth:`Index.astype` now allows casting from ``float64`` dtype to datetime-like dtypes, matching :class:`Series` behavior (:issue:`49660`) - Passing data with dtype of "timedelta64[s]", "timedelta64[ms]", or "timedelta64[us]" to :class:`TimedeltaIndex`, :class:`Series`, or :class:`DataFrame` constructors will now retain that dtype instead of casting to "timedelta64[ns]"; timedelta64 data with lower resolution will be cast to the lowest supported resolution "timedelta64[s]" (:issue:`49014`) - Passing ``dtype`` of "timedelta64[s]", "timedelta64[ms]", or "timedelta64[us]" to :class:`TimedeltaIndex`, :class:`Series`, or :class:`DataFrame` constructors will now retain that dtype instead of casting to "timedelta64[ns]"; passing a dtype with lower resolution for :class:`Series` or :class:`DataFrame` will be cast to the lowest supported resolution "timedelta64[s]" (:issue:`49014`) - Passing a ``np.datetime64`` object with non-nanosecond resolution to :class:`Timestamp` will retain the input resolution if it is "s", "ms", "us", or "ns"; otherwise it will be cast to the closest supported resolution (:issue:`49008`) - Passing ``datetime64`` values with resolution other than nanosecond to :func:`to_datetime` will retain the input resolution if it is "s", "ms", "us", or "ns"; otherwise it will be cast to the closest supported resolution (:issue:`50369`) - Passing integer values and a non-nanosecond datetime64 dtype (e.g. "datetime64[s]") :class:`DataFrame`, :class:`Series`, or :class:`Index` will treat the values as multiples of the dtype's unit, matching the behavior of e.g. ``Series(np.array(values, dtype="M8[s]"))`` (:issue:`51092`) - Passing a string in ISO-8601 format to :class:`Timestamp` will retain the resolution of the parsed input if it is "s", "ms", "us", or "ns"; otherwise it will be cast to the closest supported resolution (:issue:`49737`) - The ``other`` argument in :meth:`DataFrame.mask` and :meth:`Series.mask` now defaults to ``no_default`` instead of ``np.nan`` consistent with :meth:`DataFrame.where` and :meth:`Series.where`.

Bug in :meth:`array.PandasArray.to_numpy` raising with ``NA`` value when ``na_value`` is specified (:issue:`40638`) - Bug in :meth:`api.types.is_numeric_dtype` where a custom :class:`ExtensionDtype` would not return ``True`` if ``_is_numeric`` returned ``True`` (:issue:`50563`) - Bug in :meth:`api.types.is_integer_dtype`, :meth:`api.types.is_unsigned_integer_dtype`, :meth:`api.types.is_signed_integer_dtype`, :meth:`api.types.is_float_dtype` where a custom :class:`ExtensionDtype` would not return ``True`` if ``kind`` returned the corresponding NumPy type (:issue:`50667`) - Bug in :class:`Series` constructor unnecessarily overflowing for nullable unsigned integer dtypes (:issue:`38798`, :issue:`25880`) - Bug in setting non-string value into ``StringArray`` raising ``ValueError`` instead of ``TypeError`` (:issue:`49632`) - Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.reindex` not honoring the default ``copy=True`` keyword in case of columns with ExtensionDtype (and as a result also selecting multiple columns with getitem (``[]``) didn't correctly result in a copy) (:issue:`51197`) - Bug in :class:`~arrays.ArrowExtensionArray` logical operations ``&`` and ``|`` raising ``KeyError`` (:issue:`51688`) Styler ^^^^^^ - Fix :meth:`~pandas.io.formats.style.Styler.background_gradient` for nullable dtype :class:`Series` with ``NA`` values (:issue:`50712`) Metadata ^^^^^^^^ - Fixed metadata propagation in :meth:`DataFrame.corr` and :meth:`DataFrame.cov` (:issue:`28283`) Other ^^^^^ - Bug in incorrectly accepting dtype strings containing "[pyarrow]" more than once (:issue:`51548`) - Bug in :meth:`Series.searchsorted` inconsistent behavior when accepting :class:`DataFrame` as parameter ``value`` (:issue:`49620`) - Bug in :func:`array` failing to raise on :class:`DataFrame` inputs (:issue:`51167`) .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. _whatsnew_200.contributors: Contributors ~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. contributors:: v1.5.0rc0..v2.0.0
