pandas-accumulate 0.1.0

Accumulate Pandas series

pandas-accumulate: accumulate values along Pandas series

This package provides one function that allows accumulating values along a Pandas series very similar to cumsum and cumprod but allowing also other operators like |.

Usage examples

cumsum

Replicate cumsum:

>>> import operator
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from pandas_accumulate import accumulate
>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2, 3])
>>> accumulate(s, operator.add)
0    1
1    3
2    6
dtype: int64

cumulative unique()

Collect the unique values cumulatively. Note: You need to pass an initial value for the accumulation in this example:

>>> s = pd.Series([1,2,1,3,2])
>>> def f(acc, v):
...     return acc | {v}
>>> accumulate(s, f, initial=set())
0          {1}
1       {1, 2}
2       {1, 2}
3    {1, 2, 3}
4    {1, 2, 3}
dtype: object

cumulative nunique()

If you're interested only in the number of unique values, just call len at the end:

>>> accumulate(s, f, initial=set()).map(len)
0    1
1    2
2    2
3    3
4    3
dtype: int64
