pandas.DataFrame.slice_shift¶
- DataFrame.slice_shift(periods=1, axis=0)[source]¶
Equivalent to shift without copying data.
Deprecated since version 1.2.0: slice_shift is deprecated, use DataFrame/Series.shift instead.
The shifted data will not include the dropped periods and the shifted axis will be smaller than the original.
- Parameters
- periodsint
Number of periods to move, can be positive or negative.
- axis{0 or ‘index’, 1 or ‘columns’, None}, default 0
For Series this parameter is unused and defaults to 0.
- Returns
- shiftedsame type as caller
Notes
While the slice_shift is faster than shift, you may pay for it later during alignment.
