Two-dimensional, size-mutable, potentially heterogeneous tabular data.

Data structure also contains labeled axes (rows and columns). Arithmetic operations align on both row and column labels. Can be thought of as a dict-like container for Series objects. The primary pandas data structure.

Properties

T

The transpose of the DataFrame.

All columns must be the same dtype (numerics can be coerced to a common supertype).

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})
>>> df
   col1  col2
0     1     3
1     2     4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.T
      0  1
col1  1  2
col2  3  4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns] 
Returns
Type
Description
The transposed DataFrame.

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({"A": [True, True], "B": [False, False]})
>>> df
        A        B
0    True    False
1    True    False
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns] 

Checking if all values in each column are True(the default behavior without an explicit axis parameter):

 >>> df.all()
A     True
B    False
dtype: boolean 

Checking across rows to see if all values are True:

 >>> df.all(axis=1)
0    False
1    False
dtype: boolean

Apply a function along an axis of the DataFrame.

Objects passed to the function are Series objects whose index is the DataFrame's index ( axis=0 ) or the DataFrame's columns ( axis=1 ). The final return type is inferred from the return type of the applied function.

Examples:
 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})
>>> df
   col1  col2
0     1     3
1     2     4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> def square(x):
...     return x * x

>>> df.apply(square)
   col1  col2
0     1     9
1     4    16
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns] 

You could apply a user defined function to every row of the DataFrame by creating a remote function out of it, and using it with axis=1 . Within the function, each row is passed as a pandas.Series . It is recommended to select only the necessary columns before calling apply() . Note: This feature is currently in preview.

 >>> @bpd.remote_function(reuse=False)
... def foo(row: pd.Series) -> int:
...     result = 1
...     result += row["col1"]
...     result += row["col2"]*row["col2"]
...     return result

>>> df[["col1", "col2"]].apply(foo, axis=1)
0    11
1    19
dtype: Int64 

You could return an array output for every input row from the remote function.

 >>> @bpd.remote_function(reuse=False)
... def marks_analyzer(marks: pd.Series) -> list[float]:
...     import statistics
...     average = marks.mean()
...     median = marks.median()
...     gemetric_mean = statistics.geometric_mean(marks.values)
...     harmonic_mean = statistics.harmonic_mean(marks.values)
...     return [
...         round(stat, 2) for stat in
...         (average, median, gemetric_mean, harmonic_mean)
...     ]

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     "physics": [67, 80, 75],
...     "chemistry": [88, 56, 72],
...     "algebra": [78, 91, 79]
... }, index=["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie"])
>>> stats = df.apply(marks_analyzer, axis=1)
>>> stats
Alice      [77.67 78.   77.19 76.71]
Bob        [75.67 80.   74.15 72.56]
Charlie    [75.33 75.   75.28 75.22]
dtype: list<item: double>[pyarrow] 

You could also apply a remote function which accepts multiple parameters to every row of a DataFrame by using it with axis=1 if the DataFrame has matching number of columns and data types. Note: This feature is currently in preview.

 >>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     'col1': [1, 2],
...     'col2': [3, 4],
...     'col3': [5, 5]
... })
>>> df
   col1  col2  col3
0     1     3     5
1     2     4     5
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 3 columns]

>>> @bpd.remote_function(reuse=False)
... def foo(x: int, y: int, z: int) -> float:
...     result = 1
...     result += x
...     result += y/z
...     return result

>>> df.apply(foo, axis=1)
0    2.6
1    3.8
dtype: Float64 
Parameters
Name
Description
args
tuple

Positional arguments to pass to func in addition to the array/series.

func
function

Function to apply to each column or row. To apply to each row (i.e. when axis=1 is specified) the function can be of one of the two types: (1). It accepts a single input parameter of type Series , in which case each row is delivered to the function as a pandas Series. (2). It accept one or more parameters, in which case column values are delivered to the function as separate arguments (mapping to those parameters) for each row. For this to work the DataFrame must have same number of columns and matching data types.

axis
{index (0), columns (1)}

Axis along which the function is applied. Specify 0 or 'index' to apply function to each column. Specify 1 or 'columns' to apply function to each row.

Exceptions
Type
Description
ValueError
If a remote function is not provided when axis=1 is specified.
ValueError
If number or input params in the remote function are not the same as the number of columns in the dataframe.
ValueError
If the dtypes of the columns in the dataframe are not compatible with the data types of the remote function input params.
Returns
Type
Description
Result of applying func along the given axis of the DataFrame.

Apply a function to a Dataframe elementwise.

This method applies a function that accepts and returns a scalar to every element of a DataFrame.

Examples:
 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None 

Let's use reuse=False flag to make sure a new remote_function is created every time we run the following code, but you can skip it to potentially reuse a previously deployed remote_function from the same user defined function.

 >>> @bpd.remote_function(reuse=False)
... def minutes_to_hours(x: int) -> float:
...     return x/60

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {"system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, 90, 120],
...      "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6]})
>>> df_minutes
system_minutes  user_minutes
0               0             0

2              60            75
3              90            90
4             120             6

>>> df_hours = df_minutes.map(minutes_to_hours)
>>> df_hours

4             2.0           0.1
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns] 

If there are NA / None values in the data, you can ignore applying the remote function on such values by specifying na_action='ignore' .

 >>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         "system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, None, 90, 120, bpd.NA],
...         "user_minutes" : [0, 15, 75, 90, 6, None, bpd.NA]

Draw a stacked area plot. An area plot displays quantitative data visually.

This function calls pandas.plot to generate a plot with a random sample of items. For consistent results, the random sampling is reproducible. Use the sampling_random_state parameter to modify the sampling seed.

Examples:

Draw an area plot based on basic business metrics:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         'sales': [3, 2, 3, 9, 10, 6],
...         'signups': [5, 5, 6, 12, 14, 13],
...         'visits': [20, 42, 28, 62, 81, 50],
...     },
...     index=["01-31", "02-28", "03-31", "04-30", "05-31", "06-30"]
... )
>>> ax = df.plot.area() 

Area plots are stacked by default. To produce an unstacked plot, pass stacked=False :

 >>> ax = df.plot.area(stacked=False) 

Draw an area plot for a single column:

 >>> ax = df.plot.area(y='sales') 

Draw with a different x :

 >>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     'sales': [3, 2, 3],
...     'visits': [20, 42, 28],
...     'day': [1, 2, 3],
... })
>>> ax = df.plot.area(x='day') 
Parameters

Cast a pandas object to a specified dtype dtype .

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None 

Create a DataFrame:

 >>> d = {'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]}
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame(data=d)
>>> df.dtypes
col1    Int64
col2    Int64
dtype: object 

Cast all columns to Float64 :

 >>> df.astype('Float64').dtypes
col1    Float64
col2    Float64
dtype: object 

Create a series of type Int64 :

 >>> ser = bpd.Series([2023010000246789, 1624123244123101, 1054834234120101], dtype='Int64')
>>> ser

1    1624123244123101
2    1054834234120101
dtype: Int64 

Convert to Float64 type:

 >>> ser.astype('Float64')
0    2023010000246789.0
1    1624123244123101.0
2    1054834234120101.0
dtype: Float64 

Convert to pd.ArrowDtype(pa.timestamp("us", tz="UTC")) type:

 >>> ser.astype("timestamp[us, tz=UTC][pyarrow]")
0    2034-02-08 11:13:20.246789+00:00
1    2021-06-19 17:20:44.123101+00:00
2    2003-06-05 17:30:34.120101+00:00
dtype: timestamp[us, tz=UTC][pyarrow] 

Note that this is equivalent of using to_datetime with unit='us' :

 >>> bpd.to_datetime(ser, unit='us', utc=True)
0    2034-02-08 11:13:20.246789+00:00
1    2021-06-19 17:20:44.123101+00:00
2    2003-06-05 17:30:34.120101+00:00
dtype: timestamp[us, tz=UTC][pyarrow] 

Convert pd.ArrowDtype(pa.timestamp("us", tz="UTC")) type to Int64 type:

 >>> timestamp_ser = ser.astype("timestamp[us, tz=UTC][pyarrow]")
>>> timestamp_ser.astype('Int64')
0    2023010000246789

Draw a vertical bar plot.

This function calls pandas.plot to generate a plot with a random sample of items. For consistent results, the random sampling is reproducible. Use the sampling_random_state parameter to modify the sampling seed.

Examples:

Basic plot.

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'lab':['A', 'B', 'C'], 'val':[10, 30, 20]})
>>> ax = df.plot.bar(x='lab', y='val', rot=0) 

Plot a whole dataframe to a bar plot. Each column is assigned a distinct color, and each row is nested in a group along the horizontal axis.

 >>> speed = [0.1, 17.5, 40, 48, 52, 69, 88]
>>> lifespan = [2, 8, 70, 1.5, 25, 12, 28]
>>> index = ['snail', 'pig', 'elephant',
...          'rabbit', 'giraffe', 'coyote', 'horse']
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'speed': speed, 'lifespan': lifespan}, index=index)
>>> ax = df.plot.bar(rot=0) 

Plot stacked bar charts for the DataFrame.

 >>> ax = df.plot.bar(stacked=True) 

If you don’t like the default colours, you can specify how you’d like each column to be colored.

 >>> axes = df.plot.bar(
...     rot=0, subplots=True, color={"speed": "red", "lifespan": "green"}
... ) 
Parameters

 DataFrame 
 ) 
 

Update null elements with value in the same location in other .

Combine two DataFrame objects by filling null values in one DataFrame with non-null values from other DataFrame. The row and column indexes of the resulting DataFrame will be the union of the two. The resulting dataframe contains the 'first' dataframe values and overrides the second one values where both first.loc[index, col] and second.loc[index, col] are not missing values, upon calling first.combine_first(second).

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame({'A': [None, 0], 'B': [None, 4]})
>>> df2 = bpd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 1], 'B': [3, 3]})

Test whether two objects contain the same elements.

This function allows two Series or DataFrames to be compared against each other to see if they have the same shape and elements. NaNs in the same location are considered equal.

The row/column index do not need to have the same type, as long as the values are considered equal. Corresponding columns must be of the same dtype.

Evaluate a string describing operations on DataFrame columns.

Operates on columns only, not specific rows or elements. This allows eval to run arbitrary code, which can make you vulnerable to code injection if you pass user input to this function.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'A': range(1, 6), 'B': range(10, 0, -2)})
>>> df

0    11
1    10
2     9
3     8
4     7
dtype: Int64 

Assignment is allowed though by default the original DataFrame is not modified.

 >>> df.eval('C = A + B')
   A   B   C
0  1  10  11
1  2   8  10

 DataFrameGroupBy 
 

Group DataFrame by columns.

A groupby operation involves some combination of splitting the object, applying a function, and combining the results. This can be used to group large amounts of data and compute operations on these groups.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'Animal': ['Falcon', 'Falcon',
...                                'Parrot', 'Parrot'],
...                     'Max Speed': [380., 370., 24., 26.]})
>>> df
   Animal  Max Speed
0  Falcon      380.0
1  Falcon      370.0
2  Parrot       24.0
3  Parrot       26.0
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.groupby(['Animal'])['Max Speed'].mean()
Animal
Falcon    375.0
Parrot     25.0
Name: Max Speed, dtype: Float64 

We can also choose to include NA in group keys or not by setting dropna :

 >>> df = bpd.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3],[1, None, 4], [2, 1, 3], [1, 2, 2]],
...                    columns=["a", "b", "c"])
>>> df.groupby(by=["b"]).sum()
     a  c
b
1.0  2  3
2.0  2  5
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.groupby(by=["b"], dropna=False).sum()
      a  c
b
1.0   2  3
2.0   2  5
<NA>  1  4
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

We can also choose to return object with group labels or not by setting as_index :

 >>> df.groupby(by=["b"], as_index=False).sum()
     b  a  c
0  1.0  2  3
1  2.0  2  5
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 3 columns] 
Parameters
Name
Description
by
str, Sequence[str]

A label or list of labels may be passed to group by the columns in self . Notice that a tuple is interpreted as a (single) key.

level
int, level name, or sequence of such, default None

If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), group by a particular level or levels. Do not specify both by and level .

as_index
bool, default True

Default True. Return object with group labels as the index. Only relevant for DataFrame input. as_index=False is effectively "SQL-style" grouped output. This argument has no effect on filtrations such as head() , tail() , nth() and in transformations.

dropna
bool, default True

Default True. If True, and if group keys contain NA values, NA values together with row/column will be dropped. If False, NA values will also be treated as the key in groups.

Exceptions
Type
Description
ValueError
If both by and level are specified.
TypeError
If one of by or level is not specified.
Returns
Type
Description
A groupby object that contains information about the groups.

Return the first n rows.

This function returns the first n rows for the object based on position. It is useful for quickly testing if your object has the right type of data in it.

For negative values of n , this function returns all rows except the last |n| rows, equivalent to df[:n] .

If n is larger than the number of rows, this function returns all rows.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'animal': ['alligator', 'bee', 'falcon', 'lion',
...                     'monkey', 'parrot', 'shark', 'whale', 'zebra']})

Print a concise summary of a DataFrame.

This method prints information about a DataFrame including the index dtypeand columns, non-null values and memory usage.

Parameters
Name
Description
verbose
bool, optional

Whether to print the full summary. By default, the setting in pandas.options.display.max_info_columns is followed.

buf
writable buffer, defaults to sys.stdout

Where to send the output. By default, the output is printed to sys.stdout. Pass a writable buffer if you need to further process the output.

max_cols

When to switch from the verbose to the truncated output. If the DataFrame has more than max_cols columns, the truncated output is used. By default, the setting in pandas.options.display.max_info_columns is used.

memory_usage
bool, optional

Specifies whether total memory usage of the DataFrame elements (including the index) should be displayed. By default, this follows the pandas.options.display.memory_usage setting. True always show memory usage. False never shows memory usage. Memory estimation is made based in column dtype and number of rows assuming values consume the same memory amount for corresponding dtypes.

show_counts
bool, optional

Whether to show the non-null counts. By default, this is shown only if the DataFrame is smaller than pandas.options.display.max_info_rows and pandas.options.display.max_info_columns . A value of True always shows the counts, and False never shows the counts.

Plot Series or DataFrame as lines. This function is useful to plot lines using DataFrame's values as coordinates.

This function calls pandas.plot to generate a plot with a random sample of items. For consistent results, the random sampling is reproducible. Use the sampling_random_state parameter to modify the sampling seed.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {
...         'one': [1, 2, 3, 4],
...         'three': [3, 6, 9, 12],
...         'reverse_ten': [40, 30, 20, 10],
...     }
... )
>>> ax = df.plot.line(x='one') 
Parameters
Name
Description
x
label or position, optional

Allows plotting of one column versus another. If not specified, the index of the DataFrame is used.

y
label or position, optional

Allows plotting of one column versus another. If not specified, all numerical columns are used.

color
str, array-like, or dict, optional

The color for each of the DataFrame's columns. Possible values are: - A single color string referred to by name, RGB or RGBA code, for instance 'red' or '#a98d19'. - A sequence of color strings referred to by name, RGB or RGBA code, which will be used for each column recursively. For instance ['green','yellow'] each column's %(kind)s will be filled in green or yellow, alternatively. If there is only a single column to be plotted, then only the first color from the color list will be used. - A dict of the form {column name : color}, so that each column will be colored accordingly. For example, if your columns are called a and b , then passing {'a': 'green', 'b': 'red'} will color %(kind)ss for column a in green and %(kind)ss for column b in red.

sampling_n
int, default 100

Number of random items for plotting.

Apply a function to a Dataframe elementwise.

This method applies a function that accepts and returns a scalar to every element of a DataFrame.

Examples:
 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None 

Let's use reuse=False flag to make sure a new remote_function is created every time we run the following code, but you can skip it to potentially reuse a previously deployed remote_function from the same user defined function.

 >>> @bpd.remote_function(reuse=False)
... def minutes_to_hours(x: int) -> float:
...     return x/60

>>> df_minutes = bpd.DataFrame(
...     {"system_minutes" : [0, 30, 60, 90, 120],

Returns
Type
Description
Transformed DataFrame.

mask

  mask 
 ( 
 cond 
 , 
 other 
 = 
 None 
 ) 
 

Replace values where the condition is False.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'a': [20, 10, 0], 'b': [0, 10, 20]})
>>> df
    a   b
0  20   0
1  10  10
2   0  20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

You can filter the values in the dataframe based on a condition. The values matching the condition would be kept, and not matching would be replaced. The default replacement value is NA . For example, when the condition is a dataframe:

 >>> df.mask(df > 0)
      a     b
0  <NA>     0
1  <NA>  <NA>
2     0  <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

You can specify a custom replacement value for non-matching values.

 >>> df.mask(df > 0, -1)
    a   b
0  -1   0
1  -1  -1
2   0  -1
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

Besides dataframe, the condition can be a series too. For example:

 >>> df.mask(df['a'] > 10, -1)
    a   b
0  -1  -1
1  10  10
2   0  20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

As for the replacement, it can be a dataframe too. For example:

 >>> df.mask(df > 10, -df)
      a     b
0   -20     0
1    10    10
2     0   -20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.mask(df['a'] > 10, -df)
      a     b
0   -20     0
1    10    10
2     0    20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

Please note, replacement doesn't support Series for now. In pandas, when specifying a Series as replacement, the axis value should be specified at the same time, which is not supported in bigframes DataFrame.

Parameters
Name
Description
cond
bool Series/DataFrame, array-like, or callable

Where cond is False, keep the original value. Where True, replace with corresponding value from other. If cond is callable, it is computed on the Series/DataFrame and returns boolean Series/DataFrame or array. The callable must not change input Series/DataFrame (though pandas doesn’t check it).

other
scalar, DataFrame, or callable

Entries where cond is True are replaced with corresponding value from other. If other is callable, it is computed on the DataFrame and returns scalar or DataFrame. The callable must not change input DataFrame (though pandas doesn’t check it). If not specified, entries will be filled with the corresponding NULL value (np.nan for numpy dtypes, pd.NA for extension dtypes).

Returns
Type
Description
DataFrame
DataFrame after the replacement.

Unpivot a DataFrame from wide to long format, optionally leaving identifiers set.

This function is useful to massage a DataFrame into a format where one or more columns are identifier variables ( id_vars ), while all other columns, considered measured variables ( value_vars ), are "unpivoted" to the row axis, leaving just two non-identifier columns, 'variable' and 'value'.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({"A": [1, None, 3, 4, 5],
...                     "B": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
...                     "C": [None, 3.5, None, 4.5, 5.0]})

 DataFrame 
 

Merge DataFrame objects with a database-style join.

The join is done on columns or indexes. If joining columns on columns, the DataFrame indexes will be ignored . Otherwise if joining indexes on indexes or indexes on a column or columns, the index will be passed on. When performing a cross merge, no column specifications to merge on are allowed.

Examples:
 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None 

Merge DataFrames df1 and df2 by specifying type of merge:

 >>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame({'a': ['foo', 'bar'], 'b': [1, 2]})
>>> df1
     a  b
0  foo  1
1  bar  2
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df2 = bpd.DataFrame({'a': ['foo', 'baz'], 'c': [3, 4]})
>>> df2
     a  c
0  foo  3
1  baz  4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df1.merge(df2, how="inner", on="a")
     a  b  c
0  foo  1  3
<BLANKLINE>
[1 rows x 3 columns]

>>> df1.merge(df2, how='left', on='a')
     a  b     c
0  foo  1     3
1  bar  2  <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 3 columns] 

Merge df1 and df2 on the lkey and rkey columns. The value columns have the default suffixes, _x and _y, appended.

 >>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame({'lkey': ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'foo'],
...                     'value': [1, 2, 3, 5]})

Preview n arbitrary rows from the dataframe. No guarantees about row selection or ordering. DataFrame.peek(force=False) will always be very fast, but will not succeed if data requires full data scanning. Using force=True will always succeed, but may be perform queries. Query results will be cached so that future steps will benefit from these queries.

Parameters
Name
Description
n
int, default 5

The number of rows to select from the dataframe. Which N rows are returned is non-deterministic.

force
bool, default True

If the data cannot be peeked efficiently, the dataframe will instead be fully materialized as part of the operation if force=True . If force=False , the operation will throw a ValueError.

Apply chainable functions that expect Series or DataFrames.

Examples:

Constructing a income DataFrame from a dictionary.

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> import numpy as np
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> data = [[8000, 1000], [9500, np.nan], [5000, 2000]]
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame(data, columns=['Salary', 'Others'])
>>> df
   Salary  Others

1    9500    <NA>
2    5000  2000.0
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

Functions that perform tax reductions on an income DataFrame.

 >>> def subtract_federal_tax(df):
...     return df * 0.9
>>> def subtract_state_tax(df, rate):
...     return df * (1 - rate)
>>> def subtract_national_insurance(df, rate, rate_increase):
...     new_rate = rate + rate_increase
...     return df * (1 - new_rate) 

Instead of writing

 >>> subtract_national_insurance(
...     subtract_state_tax(subtract_federal_tax(df), rate=0.12),
...     rate=0.05,
...     rate_increase=0.02)  # doctest: +SKIP 

You can write

 >>> (
...     df.pipe(subtract_federal_tax)
...     .pipe(subtract_state_tax, rate=0.12)
...     .pipe(subtract_national_insurance, rate=0.05, rate_increase=0.02)

2   3682.8  1473.12
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

If you have a function that takes the data as (say) the second argument, pass a tuple indicating which keyword expects the data. For example, suppose national_insurance takes its data as df in the second argument:

 >>> def subtract_national_insurance(rate, df, rate_increase):
...     new_rate = rate + rate_increase
...     return df * (1 - new_rate)
>>> (
...     df.pipe(subtract_federal_tax)
...     .pipe(subtract_state_tax, rate=0.12)
...     .pipe(
...         (subtract_national_insurance, 'df'),
...         rate=0.05,
...         rate_increase=0.02
...     )
... )

Return reshaped DataFrame organized by given index / column values.

Reshape data (produce a "pivot" table) based on column values. Uses unique values from specified index / columns to form axes of the resulting DataFrame. This function does not support data aggregation, multiple values will result in a MultiIndex in the columns.

Examples:
 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     "foo": ["one", "one", "one", "two", "two"],
...     "bar": ["A", "B", "C", "A", "B"],
...     "baz": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
...     "zoo": ['x', 'y', 'z', 'q', 'w']
... })

 DataFrame 
 

Query the columns of a DataFrame with a boolean expression.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'A': range(1, 6),
...                    'B': range(10, 0, -2),
...                    'C C': range(10, 5, -1)})
>>> df
A   B  C C
0  1  10   10
1  2   8    9
2  3   6    8
3  4   4    7
4  5   2    6
<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 3 columns]
>>> df.query('A > B')
A  B  C C
4  5  2    6
<BLANKLINE>
[1 rows x 3 columns]

>>> df[df.A > df.B]
A  B  C C
4  5  2    6
<BLANKLINE>
[1 rows x 3 columns]

For columns with spaces in their name, you can use backtick quoting.

>>> df.query('B == `C C`')
A   B  C C
0  1  10   10
<BLANKLINE>
[1 rows x 3 columns]

The previous expression is equivalent to

>>> df[df.B == df['C C']]
A   B  C C
0  1  10   10
<BLANKLINE>
[1 rows x 3 columns] 
Parameter
Name
Description
expr
str

The query string to evaluate. You can refer to variables in the environment by prefixing them with an '@' character like @a + b . You can refer to column names that are not valid Python variable names by surrounding them in backticks. Thus, column names containing spaces or punctuations (besides underscores) or starting with digits must be surrounded by backticks. (For example, a column named "Area (cm^2)" would be referenced as <code>Area (cm^2)</code>`<code>). Column names which are Python keywords (like "list", "for", "import", etc) cannot be used. For example, if one of your columns is called </code>a a<code> and you want to sum it with </code><code>b</code><code>, your query should be </code>`<code>a a</code> + b .

Returns
Type
Description
DataFrame result after the query operation, otherwise None.

 , 
 * 
 , 
 regex 
 : 
 bool 
 = 
 False 
 ) 
 

Replace values given in to_replace with value .

Values of the Series/DataFrame are replaced with other values dynamically. This differs from updating with .loc or .iloc , which require you to specify a location to update with some value.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({
...     'int_col': [1, 1, 2, 3],
...     'string_col': ["a", "b", "c", "b"],
...     }) 

Using scalar to_replace and value :

 >>> df.replace("b", "e")
   int_col string_col
0        1          a
1        1          e
2        2          c
3        3          e
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns] 

Using dictionary:

 >>> df.replace({"a": "e", 2: 5})
   int_col string_col
0        1          e
1        1          b
2        5          c
3        3          b
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns] 

Using regex:

 >>> df.replace("[ab]", "e", regex=True)
   int_col string_col
0        1          e
1        1          e
2        2          c
3        3          e
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns] 
Parameters
Name
Description
to_replace
str, regex, list, int, float or None

How to find the values that will be replaced. numeric: numeric values equal to to_replace will be replaced with value str: string exactly matching to_replace will be replaced with value regex: regexs matching to_replace will be replaced with value list of str, regex, or numeric: First, if to_replace and value are both lists, they mustbe the same length. Second, if regex=True then all of the strings in bothlists will be interpreted as regexs otherwise they will match directly. This doesn't matter much for value since there are only a few possible substitution regexes you can use. str, regex and numeric rules apply as above.

value
scalar, default None

Value to replace any values matching to_replace with. For a DataFrame a dict of values can be used to specify which value to use for each column (columns not in the dict will not be filled). Regular expressions, strings and lists or dicts of such objects are also allowed.

regex
bool, default False

Whether to interpret to_replace and/or value as regular expressions. If this is True then to_replace must be a string.

Returns
Type
Description

reset_index

 ( 
 * 
 , 
 drop 
 : 
 bool 
 = 
 False 
 ) 
 - 
> bigframes 
 . 
 dataframe 
 . 
 DataFrame 
 

Reset the index.

Reset the index of the DataFrame, and use the default one instead.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> import numpy as np
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([('bird', 389.0),
...                     ('bird', 24.0),
...                     ('mammal', 80.5),
...                     ('mammal', np.nan)],
...                    index=['falcon', 'parrot', 'lion', 'monkey'],
...                    columns=('class', 'max_speed'))
>>> df
         class  max_speed
falcon    bird      389.0
parrot    bird       24.0
lion    mammal       80.5
monkey  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns] 

When we reset the index, the old index is added as a column, and a new sequential index is used:

 >>> df.reset_index()
    index   class  max_speed
0  falcon    bird      389.0
1  parrot    bird       24.0
2    lion  mammal       80.5
3  monkey  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 3 columns] 

We can use the drop parameter to avoid the old index being added as a column:

 >>> df.reset_index(drop=True)
    class  max_speed
0    bird      389.0
1    bird       24.0
2  mammal       80.5
3  mammal       <NA>
<BLANKLINE>
[4 rows x 2 columns] 

You can also use reset_index with MultiIndex .

 >>> import pandas as pd
>>> index = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('bird', 'falcon'),
...                                    ('bird', 'parrot'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'lion'),
...                                    ('mammal', 'monkey')],
...                                   names=['class', 'name'])
>>> columns = ['speed', 'max']
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([(389.0, 'fly'),
...                     (24.0, 'fly'),
...                     (80.5, 'run'),
...                     (np.nan, 'jump')],
...                    index=index,
...                    columns=columns)
>>> df
               speed   max
class  name
bird   falcon  389.0   fly
       parrot   24.0   fly

Parameters
Name
Description
window
int, timedelta, str, offset, or BaseIndexer subclass

Size of the moving window. If an integer, the fixed number of observations used for each window. If a timedelta, str, or offset, the time period of each window. Each window will be a variable sized based on the observations included in the time-period. This is only valid for datetime-like indexes. To learn more about the offsets & frequency strings, please see this link https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/timeseries.html#offset-aliases __. If a BaseIndexer subclass, the window boundaries based on the defined get_window_bounds method. Additional rolling keyword arguments, namely min_periods , center , closed and step will be passed to get_window_bounds .

min_periods
int, default None

Minimum number of observations in window required to have a value; otherwise, result is np.nan . For a window that is specified by an offset, min_periods will default to 1. For a window that is specified by an integer, min_periods will default to the size of the window.

Create a scatter plot with varying marker point size and color.

This function calls pandas.plot to generate a plot with a random sample of items. For consistent results, the random sampling is reproducible. Use the sampling_random_state parameter to modify the sampling seed.

Examples:

Let's see how to draw a scatter plot using coordinates from the values in a DataFrame's columns.

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None
>>> df = bpd.DataFrame([[5.1, 3.5, 0], [4.9, 3.0, 0], [7.0, 3.2, 1],
...                    [6.4, 3.2, 1], [5.9, 3.0, 2]],
...                   columns=['length', 'width', 'species'])
>>> ax1 = df.plot.scatter(x='length',
...                       y='width',
...                       c='DarkBlue') 

And now with the color determined by a column as well.

 >>> ax2 = df.plot.scatter(x='length',
...                       y='width',
...                       c='species',

Stack the prescribed level(s) from columns to index.

Return a reshaped DataFrame or Series having a multi-level index with one or more new inner-most levels compared to the current DataFrame. The new inner-most levels are created by pivoting the columns of the current dataframe:

  • if the columns have a single level, the output is a Series;
  • if the columns have multiple levels, the new index level(s) is (are) taken from the prescribed level(s) and the output is a DataFrame.

 , 
 ** 
 kwargs 
 ) 
 - 
> None 
 

Write DataFrame to an Excel sheet.

To write a single DataFrame to an Excel .xlsx file it is only necessary to specify a target file name. To write to multiple sheets it is necessary to create an ExcelWriter object with a target file name, and specify a sheet in the file to write to.

Multiple sheets may be written to by specifying unique sheet_name . With all data written to the file it is necessary to save the changes. Note that creating an ExcelWriter object with a file name that already exists will result in the contents of the existing file being erased.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> import tempfile
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]})
>>> df.to_excel(tempfile.TemporaryFile()) 
Parameters

Indication of expected JSON string format. * Series: - default is 'index' - allowed values are: {{'split', 'records', 'index', 'table'}}. * DataFrame: - default is 'columns' - allowed values are: {{'split', 'records', 'index', 'columns', 'values', 'table'}}. * The format of the JSON string: - 'split' : dict like {{'index' -> [index], 'columns' -> [columns], 'data' -> [values]}} - 'records' : list like [{{column -> value}}, ... , {{column -> value}}] - 'index' : dict like {{index -> {{column -> value}}}} - 'columns' : dict like {{column -> {{index -> value}}}} - 'values' : just the values array - 'table' : dict like {{'schema': {{schema}}, 'data': {{data}}}} Describing the data, where data component is like orient='records' .

index
bool, default True

If True, write row names (index).

lines
bool, default False

If 'orient' is 'records' write out line-delimited json format. Will throw ValueError if incorrect 'orient' since others are not list-like.

Exceptions

 - 
> bigframes 
 . 
 dataframe 
 . 
 DataFrame 
 

Transpose index and columns.

Reflect the DataFrame over its main diagonal by writing rows as columns and vice-versa. The property .T is an accessor to the method transpose .

All columns must be the same dtype (numerics can be coerced to a common supertype).

Examples:

 **Square DataFrame with homogeneous dtype**

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> d1 = {'col1': [1, 2], 'col2': [3, 4]}
>>> df1 = bpd.DataFrame(data=d1)
>>> df1
   col1  col2
0     1     3
1     2     4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df1_transposed = df1.T  # or df1.transpose()
>>> df1_transposed
      0  1
col1  1  2
col2  3  4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns]

When the dtype is homogeneous in the original DataFrame, we get a
transposed DataFrame with the same dtype:

>>> df1.dtypes
col1    Int64
col2    Int64
dtype: object
>>> df1_transposed.dtypes
0    Int64
1    Int64
dtype: object

Parameters
Name
Description
other
DataFrame, or object coercible into a DataFrame

Should have at least one matching index/column label with the original DataFrame. If a Series is passed, its name attribute must be set, and that will be used as the column name to align with the original DataFrame.

join
{'left'}, default 'left'

Only left join is implemented, keeping the index and columns of the original object.

overwrite

...                     'num_wings': [2, 0, 0, 0, bpd.NA]},
...                    index=['falcon', 'dog', 'cat', 'ant', 'octopus'],
...                    dtype='Int64')
>>> df
         num_legs  num_wings
falcon          2          2
dog             4          0
cat             4          0

<BLANKLINE>
[5 rows x 2 columns] 

value_counts sorts the result by counts in a descending order by default:

 >>> df.value_counts()
num_legs  num_wings
4         0          2
2         2          1
6         0          1
Name: count, dtype: Int64 

You can normalize the counts to return relative frequencies by setting normalize=True :

 >>> df.value_counts(normalize=True)
num_legs  num_wings
4         0             0.5
2         2            0.25
6         0            0.25
Name: proportion, dtype: Float64 

You can get the rows in the ascending order of the counts by setting ascending=True :

 >>> df.value_counts(ascending=True)
num_legs  num_wings
2         2          1
6         0          1
4         0          2
Name: count, dtype: Int64 

You can include the counts of the rows with NA values by setting dropna=False :

 >>> df.value_counts(dropna=False)
num_legs  num_wings
4         0            2
2         2            1
6         0            1
7         <NA>         1
Name: count, dtype: Int64 
Parameters
Name
Description
subset
label or list of labels, optional

Columns to use when counting unique combinations.

normalize
bool, default False

Return proportions rather than frequencies.

sort
bool, default True

Sort by frequencies.

ascending
bool, default False

Sort in ascending order.

dropna
bool, default True

Don’t include counts of rows that contain NA values.

Returns
Type
Description
Series containing counts of unique rows in the DataFrame

 Series 
 

Return unbiased variance over requested axis.

Normalized by N-1 by default.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 3], "B": [2, 4]})
>>> df
    A       B
0   1       2
1   3       4
<BLANKLINE>
[2 rows x 2 columns] 

Calculating the variance of each column (the default behavior without an explicit axis parameter).

 >>> df.var()
A    2.0
B    2.0
dtype: Float64 

Calculating the variance of each row.

 >>> df.var(axis=1)
0    0.5
1    0.5
dtype: Float64 
Parameters
Name
Description
axis
{index (0), columns (1)}

Axis for the function to be applied on. For Series this parameter is unused and defaults to 0.

numeric_only
bool. default False

Default False. Include only float, int, boolean columns.

Returns
Type
Description
Series with unbiased variance over requested axis.

where

  where 
 ( 
 cond 
 , 
 other 
 = 
 None 
 ) 
 

Replace values where the condition is False.

Examples:

 >>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd
>>> bpd.options.display.progress_bar = None

>>> df = bpd.DataFrame({'a': [20, 10, 0], 'b': [0, 10, 20]})
>>> df
    a   b
0  20   0
1  10  10
2   0  20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

You can filter the values in the dataframe based on a condition. The values matching the condition would be kept, and not matching would be replaced. The default replacement value is NA . For example, when the condition is a dataframe:

 >>> df.where(df > 0)
      a     b
0    20  <NA>
1    10    10
2  <NA>    20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

You can specify a custom replacement value for non-matching values.

 >>> df.where(df > 0, -1)
      a     b
0    20    -1
1    10    10
2    -1    20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

Besides dataframe, the condition can be a series too. For example:

 >>> df.where(df['a'] > 10, -1)
      a     b
0    20     0
1    -1    -1
2    -1    -1
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

As for the replacement, it can be a dataframe too. For example:

 >>> df.where(df > 10, -df)
      a     b
0    20     0
1   -10   -10
2     0    20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns]

>>> df.where(df['a'] > 10, -df)
      a     b
0    20     0
1   -10   -10
2     0   -20
<BLANKLINE>
[3 rows x 2 columns] 

Please note, replacement doesn't support Series for now. In pandas, when specifying a Series as replacement, the axis value should be specified at the same time, which is not supported in bigframes DataFrame.

Parameters
Name
Description
cond
bool Series/DataFrame, array-like, or callable

Where cond is True, keep the original value. Where False, replace with corresponding value from other. If cond is callable, it is computed on the Series/DataFrame and returns boolean Series/DataFrame or array. The callable must not change input Series/DataFrame (though pandas doesn’t check it).

other
scalar, DataFrame, or callable

Entries where cond is False are replaced with corresponding value from other. If other is callable, it is computed on the DataFrame and returns scalar or DataFrame. The callable must not change input DataFrame (though pandas doesn’t check it). If not specified, entries will be filled with the corresponding NULL value (np.nan for numpy dtypes, pd.NA for extension dtypes).

Returns
Type
Description
DataFrame
DataFrame after the replacement.
