Series.
last
Select final periods of time series data based on a date offset.
When having a Series with dates as index, this function can select the last few elements based on a date offset.
The offset length of the data that will be selected. For instance, ‘3D’ will display all the rows having their index within the last 3 days.
A subset of the caller.
If the index is not a DatetimeIndex
DatetimeIndex
Examples
>>> index = pd.date_range('2018-04-09', periods=4, freq='2D') >>> psser = ps.Series([1, 2, 3, 4], index=index) >>> psser 2018-04-09 1 2018-04-11 2 2018-04-13 3 2018-04-15 4 dtype: int64
Get the rows for the last 3 days:
>>> psser.last('3D') 2018-04-13 3 2018-04-15 4 dtype: int64
Notice the data for 3 last calendar days were returned, not the last 3 observed days in the dataset, and therefore data for 2018-04-11 was not returned.
