pandas.Timedelta¶

class pandas.Timedelta¶

Represents a duration, the difference between two dates or times.

Timedelta is the pandas equivalent of python’s datetime.timedelta and is interchangeable with it in most cases.

Parameters

valueTimedelta, timedelta, np.timedelta64, string, or integer

unitstr, default ‘ns’

Denote the unit of the input, if input is an integer.

Possible values:

‘Y’, ‘M’, ‘W’, ‘D’, ‘T’, ‘S’, ‘L’, ‘U’, or ‘N’
‘days’ or ‘day’
‘hours’, ‘hour’, ‘hr’, or ‘h’
‘minutes’, ‘minute’, ‘min’, or ‘m’
‘seconds’, ‘second’, or ‘sec’
‘milliseconds’, ‘millisecond’, ‘millis’, or ‘milli’
‘microseconds’, ‘microsecond’, ‘micros’, or ‘micro’
‘nanoseconds’, ‘nanosecond’, ‘nanos’, ‘nano’, or ‘ns’.

**kwargs

Available kwargs: {days, seconds, microseconds, milliseconds, minutes, hours, weeks}. Values for construction in compat with datetime.timedelta. Numpy ints and floats will be coerced to python ints and floats.

Notes

The .value attribute is always in ns.

Attributes

`asm8`	Return a numpy timedelta64 array scalar view.
`components`	Return a components namedtuple-like.
`days`	Number of days.
`delta`	Return the timedelta in nanoseconds (ns), for internal compatibility.
`microseconds`	Number of microseconds (>= 0 and less than 1 second).
`nanoseconds`	Return the number of nanoseconds (n), where 0 <= n < 1 microsecond.
`resolution_string`	Return a string representing the lowest timedelta resolution.
`seconds`	Number of seconds (>= 0 and less than 1 day).

Methods

`ceil`(self, freq)	Return a new Timedelta ceiled to this resolution.
`floor`(self, freq)	Return a new Timedelta floored to this resolution.
`isoformat`()	Format Timedelta as ISO 8601 Duration like `P[n]Y[n]M[n]DT[n]H[n]M[n]S`, where the `[n]` s are replaced by the values.
`round`(self, freq)	Round the Timedelta to the specified resolution.
`to_numpy`()	Convert the Timedelta to a NumPy timedelta64.
`to_pytimedelta`()	Convert a pandas Timedelta object into a python timedelta object.
`to_timedelta64`()	Return a numpy.timedelta64 object with ‘ns’ precision.
`total_seconds`()	Total duration of timedelta in seconds (to ns precision).
`view`()	Array view compatibility.
