pandas.core.window.rolling.Rolling.median¶
- Rolling.median(engine=None, engine_kwargs=None, **kwargs)[source]¶
Calculate the rolling median.
- Parameters
- enginestr, default None
'cython': Runs the operation through C-extensions from cython.'numba': Runs the operation through JIT compiled code from numba.None: Defaults to'cython'or globally settingcompute.use_numbaNew in version 1.3.0.
- engine_kwargsdict, default None
For
'cython'engine, there are no acceptedengine_kwargsFor
'numba'engine, the engine can acceptnopython,nogilandparalleldictionary keys. The values must either beTrueorFalse. The defaultengine_kwargsfor the'numba'engine is{'nopython': True, 'nogil': False, 'parallel': False}New in version 1.3.0.
- **kwargs
For NumPy compatibility and will not have an effect on the result.
- Returns
- Series or DataFrame
Return type is the same as the original object with
np.float64dtype.

Examples
Compute the rolling median of a series with a window size of 3.
>>> s = pd.Series([0, 1, 2, 3, 4]) >>> s.rolling(3).median() 0 NaN 1 NaN 2 1.0 3 2.0 4 3.0 dtype: float64
