dask_expr._collection.Series.pipe

dask_expr._collection.Series.pipe

Series.pipe(func, *args, **kwargs)

Apply chainable functions that expect Series or DataFrames.

This docstring was copied from pandas.core.frame.DataFrame.pipe.

Some inconsistencies with the Dask version may exist.

Parameters
funcfunction

Function to apply to the Series/DataFrame. args, and kwargs are passed into func. Alternatively a (callable, data_keyword) tuple where data_keyword is a string indicating the keyword of callable that expects the Series/DataFrame.

*argsiterable, optional

Positional arguments passed into func.

**kwargsmapping, optional

A dictionary of keyword arguments passed into func.

Returns
the return type of func.

See also

DataFrame.apply

Apply a function along input axis of DataFrame.

DataFrame.map

Apply a function elementwise on a whole DataFrame.

Series.map

Apply a mapping correspondence on a Series.

Notes

Use .pipe when chaining together functions that expect Series, DataFrames or GroupBy objects.

Examples

Constructing a income DataFrame from a dictionary.

>>> data = [[8000, 1000], [9500, np.nan], [5000, 2000]]  
>>> df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['Salary', 'Others'])  
>>> df  
   Salary  Others
0    8000  1000.0
1    9500     NaN
2    5000  2000.0

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)  

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)
... )
    Salary   Others
0  5892.48   736.56
1  6997.32      NaN
2  3682.80  1473.12

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
...     )
... )
    Salary   Others
0  5892.48   736.56
1  6997.32      NaN
2  3682.80  1473.12
