pandas.Series.sem

Series.sem(*, axis=None, skipna=True, ddof=1, numeric_only=False, **kwargs)

Return unbiased standard error of the mean over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1 by default. This can be changed using the ddof argument

Parameters:

axis{index (0)}

This parameter is unused and defaults to 0.

skipnabool, default True

Exclude NA/null values. If an entire row/column is NA, the result will be NA.

ddofint, default 1

Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

numeric_onlybool, default False

Include only float, int, boolean columns. Not implemented for Series.

**kwargs

Additional keywords have no effect but might be accepted for compatibility with NumPy.

Returns:

scalar or Series (if level specified)

Unbiased standard error of the mean over requested axis.

Series.std

Series.var

Return unbiased variance over requested axis.

Series.mean

Return the mean of the values over the requested axis.

Series.median

Return the median of the values over the requested axis.

Series.mode

Return the mode(s) of the Series.

>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2, 3])
>>> round(s.sem(), 6)
