The TimedeltaIndex.ceil method in pandas is used to round up (ceiling) the values of a TimedeltaIndex to the specified frequency. It can be useful when you want to round up the timedelta values to a certain resolution.
Here's a basic example to demonstrate its use:
import pandas as pd # Create a TimedeltaIndex tdi = pd.TimedeltaIndex(['1 days 01:23:45', '2 days 02:13:44', '3 days 03:22:12']) # Round up to the nearest hour rounded = tdi.ceil('H') print(rounded) Output:
TimedeltaIndex(['1 days 02:00:00', '2 days 03:00:00', '3 days 04:00:00'], dtype='timedelta64[ns]', freq=None)
In the above example, each timedelta value in the TimedeltaIndex is rounded up to the nearest hour. So, "1 days 01:23:45" is rounded to "1 days 02:00:00" and so on.
The argument passed to the ceil method determines the rounding resolution. Some common values are:
'D': days'H': hours'T' or 'min': minutes'S': secondsYou can adjust this argument to get the desired rounding behavior.
