DatetimeIndex
[source]¶ Immutable ndarray of datetime64 data, represented internally as int64, and which can be boxed to Timestamp objects that are subclasses of datetime and carry metadata such as frequency information.
- Parameters
data : array-like (1-dimensional), optional
Optional datetime-like data to construct index with
copy : bool
Make a copy of input ndarray
freq : string or pandas offset object, optional
One of pandas date offset strings or corresponding objects. The string ‘infer’ can be passed in order to set the frequency of the index as the inferred frequency upon creation
start : starting value, datetime-like, optional
If data is None, start is used as the start point in generating regular timestamp data.
Deprecated since version 0.24.0.
periods : int, optional, > 0
Number of periods to generate, if generating index. Takes precedence over end argument
Deprecated since version 0.24.0.
end : end time, datetime-like, optional
If periods is none, generated index will extend to first conforming time on or just past end argument
Deprecated since version 0.24.0.
closed : string or None, default None
Make the interval closed with respect to the given frequency to the ‘left’, ‘right’, or both sides (None)
Deprecated since version 0.24.: 0
tz : pytz.timezone or dateutil.tz.tzfile
ambiguous : ‘infer’, bool-ndarray, ‘NaT’, default ‘raise’
When clocks moved backward due to DST, ambiguous times may arise. For example in Central European Time (UTC+01), when going from 03:00 DST to 02:00 non-DST, 02:30:00 local time occurs both at 00:30:00 UTC and at 01:30:00 UTC. In such a situation, the ambiguous parameter dictates how ambiguous times should be handled.
‘infer’ will attempt to infer fall dst-transition hours based on order
bool-ndarray where True signifies a DST time, False signifies a non-DST time (note that this flag is only applicable for ambiguous times)
‘NaT’ will return NaT where there are ambiguous times
‘raise’ will raise an AmbiguousTimeError if there are ambiguous times
name : object
Name to be stored in the index
dayfirst : bool, default False
If True, parse dates in data with the day first order
yearfirst : bool, default False
If True parse dates in data with the year first order
