Changelog for python-pandas-0.22.0-48.1.x86_64.rpm :
Thu Jan 11 13:00:00 2018 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Drop commented code to allow us py3 only build

Wed Jan 3 13:00:00 2018 arunAATTgmx.de
- specfile:

* update copyright year
- update to version 0.22.0:

* Pandas 0.22.0 changes the handling of empty and all-NA sums and
products. The summary is that
+ The sum of an empty or all-NA Series is now 0
+ The product of an empty or all-NA Series is now 1
+ We’ve added a min_count parameter to .sum() and .prod()
controlling the minimum number of valid values for the result to
be valid. If fewer than min_count non-NA values are present, the
result is NA. The default is 0. To return NaN, the 0.21
behavior, use min_count=1.

Sat Dec 16 13:00:00 2017 arunAATTgmx.de
- update to version 0.21.1:

* Highlights include:
+ Temporarily restore matplotlib datetime plotting

start and end timezones would not raise an err if end.tzinfo is
None (GH18431)
+ Bug in Series.fillna() which raised when passed a long integer
on Python 2 (GH18159).

* Indexing

Tue May 19 14:00:00 2015 toddrme2178AATTgmail.com
- Update to version 0.16.1

* Highlights
- Support for a ``CategoricalIndex``, a category based index
- New section on how-to-contribute to pandas
- Revised \"Merge, join, and concatenate\" documentation,
including graphical examples to make it easier to understand
each operations
- New method sample for drawing random samples from Series,
DataFrames and Panels.
- The default Index printing has changed to a more uniform
format
- BusinessHour datetime-offset is now supported

* Enhancements
- BusinessHour`offset is now supported, which represents
business hours starting from 09:00 - 17:00 on BusinessDay by
default.
- DataFrame.diff now takes an axis parameter that determines the
direction of differencing
- Allow clip, clip_lower, and clip_upper to accept array-like
arguments as thresholds (This is a regression from 0.11.0).
These methods now have an axis parameter which determines
how the Series or DataFrame will be aligned with the
threshold(s).
- DataFrame.mask() and Series.mask() now support same keywords
as where
- drop function can now accept errors keyword to suppress
ValueError raised when any of label does not exist in the
target data.
- Allow conversion of values with dtype datetime64 or timedelta64
to strings using astype(str)
- get_dummies function now accepts sparse keyword. If set to
True, the return DataFrame is sparse, e.g. SparseDataFrame.
- Period now accepts datetime64 as value input.
- Allow timedelta string conversion when leading zero is
missing from time definition, ie 0:00:00 vs 00:00:00.
- Allow Panel.shift with axis=\'items\'
- Trying to write an excel file now raises NotImplementedError
if the DataFrame has a MultiIndex instead of writing a broken
Excel file.
- Allow Categorical.add_categories to accept Series or np.array.
- Add/delete str/dt/cat accessors dynamically from __dir__.
- Add normalize as a dt accessor method.
- DataFrame and Series now have _constructor_expanddim property
as overridable constructor for one higher dimensionality
data. This should be used only when it is really needed
- pd.lib.infer_dtype now returns \'bytes\' in Python 3 where
appropriate.
- We introduce a CategoricalIndex, a new type of index object
that is useful for supporting indexing with duplicates. This
is a container around a Categorical (introduced in v0.15.0)
and allows efficient indexing and storage of an index with a
large number of duplicated elements. Prior to 0.16.1,
setting the index of a DataFrame/Series with a category
dtype would convert this to regular object-based Index.
- Series, DataFrames, and Panels now have a new method:
pandas.DataFrame.sample. The method accepts a specific number
of rows or columns to return, or a fraction of the total
number or rows or columns. It also has options for sampling
with or without replacement, for passing in a column for
weights for non-uniform sampling, and for setting seed values
to facilitate replication.
- The following new methods are accesible via .str accessor to
apply the function to each values.
+ capitalize()
+ swapcase()
+ normalize()
+ partition()
+ rpartition()
+ index()
+ rindex()
+ translate()
- Added StringMethods (.str accessor) to Index
- split now takes expand keyword to specify whether to expand
dimensionality. return_type is deprecated.

* API changes
- When passing in an ax to df.plot( ..., ax=ax), the sharex
kwarg will now default to False.
- Add support for separating years and quarters using dashes,
for example 2014-Q1.
- pandas.DataFrame.assign now inserts new columns in
alphabetical order. Previously the order was arbitrary.
- By default, read_csv and read_table will now try to infer
the compression type based on the file extension. Set
compression=None to restore the previous behavior
(no decompression).
- The string representation of Index and its sub-classes have
now been unified. These will show a single-line display if
there are few values; a wrapped multi-line display for a lot
of values (but less than display.max_seq_items; if lots of
items > display.max_seq_items) will show a truncated display
(the head and tail of the data). The formatting for
MultiIndex is unchanges (a multi-line wrapped display). The
display width responds to the option display.max_seq_items,
which is defaulted to 100.

* Deprecations
- Series.str.split\'s return_type keyword was removed in favor
of expand

* Performance Improvements
- Improved csv write performance with mixed dtypes, including
datetimes by up to 5x
- Improved csv write performance generally by 2x
- Improved the performance of pd.lib.max_len_string_array
by 5-7x

- Bug causing elements with a null group to spill into the
final group when grouping by a Categorical
- Bug where .iloc and .loc behavior is not consistent on empty
dataframes
- Bug in invalid attribute access on a TimedeltaIndex
incorrectly raised ValueError instead of AttributeError
- Bug in unequal comparisons between categorical data and a
scalar, which was not in the categories (e.g.
Series(Categorical(list(\"abc\"), ordered=True)) > \"d\". This
returned False for all elements, but now raises a TypeError.

Tue Mar 24 13:00:00 2015 toddrme2178AATTgmail.com
- update to version 0.16.0:

* Highlights:
- DataFrame.assign method
- Series.to_coo/from_coo methods to interact with scipy.sparse
- Backwards incompatible change to Timedelta to conform the .seconds
attribute with datetime.timedelta
- Changes to the .loc slicing API to conform with the behavior of .ix
- Changes to the default for ordering in the Categorical constructor
- Enhancement to the .str accessor to make string operations easier
- The pandas.tools.rplot, pandas.sandbox.qtpandas and pandas.rpy
modules are deprecated. We refer users to external packages like
seaborn, pandas-qt and rpy2 for similar or equivalent functionality

* New features
- Inspired by dplyr\'s mutate verb, DataFrame has a new assign method.
- Added SparseSeries.to_coo and SparseSeries.from_coo methods for
converting to and from scipy.sparse.coo_matrix instances.
- Following new methods are accesible via .str accessor to apply the
function to each values. This is intended to make it more consistent with
standard methods on strings: isalnum(), isalpha(), isdigit(), isdigit(),
isspace(), islower(), isupper(), istitle(), isnumeric(), isdecimal(),
find(), rfind(), ljust(), rjust(), zfill()
- Reindex now supports method=\'nearest\' for frames or series with a
monotonic increasing or decreasing index.
- The read_excel() function\'s sheetname argument now accepts a list and
None, to get multiple or all sheets respectively. If more than one sheet
is specified, a dictionary is returned.
- Allow Stata files to be read incrementally with an iterator; support for
long strings in Stata files.
- Paths beginning with ~ will now be expanded to begin with the user\'s home
directory.
- Added time interval selection in get_data_yahoo.
- Added Timestamp.to_datetime64() to complement Timedelta.to_timedelta64().
- tseries.frequencies.to_offset() now accepts Timedelta as input.
- Lag parameter was added to the autocorrelation method of Series, defaults
to lag-1 autocorrelation.
- Timedelta will now accept nanoseconds keyword in constructor.
- SQL code now safely escapes table and column names.
- Added auto-complete for Series.str., Series.dt. and
Series.cat..
- Index.get_indexer now supports method=\'pad\' and method=\'backfill\' even
for any target array, not just monotonic targets.
- Index.asof now works on all index types.
- A verbose argument has been augmented in io.read_excel(), defaults to
False. Set to True to print sheet names as they are parsed.
- Added days_in_month (compatibility alias daysinmonth) property to
Timestamp, DatetimeIndex, Period, PeriodIndex, and Series.dt.
- Added decimal option in to_csv to provide formatting for non-\'.\' decimal
separators
- Added normalize option for Timestamp to normalized to midnight
- Added example for DataFrame import to R using HDF5 file and rhdf5
library.

* Backwards incompatible API changes
- In v0.16.0, we are restoring the API to match that of datetime.timedelta.
Further, the component values are still available through the .components
accessor. This affects the .seconds and .microseconds accessors, and
removes the .hours, .minutes, .milliseconds accessors. These changes
affect TimedeltaIndex and the Series .dt accessor as well.
- The behavior of a small sub-set of edge cases for using .loc have
changed. Furthermore we have improved the content of the error messages
that are raised:
+ Slicing with .loc where the start and/or stop bound is not found in
the index is now allowed; this previously would raise a KeyError. This
makes the behavior the same as .ix in this case. This change is only
for slicing, not when indexing with a single label.
+ Allow slicing with float-like values on an integer index for .ix.
Previously this was only enabled for .loc:
+ Provide a useful exception for indexing with an invalid type for that
index when using .loc. For example trying to use .loc on an index of
type DatetimeIndex or PeriodIndex or TimedeltaIndex, with an integer
(or a float).
- In prior versions, Categoricals that had an unspecified ordering
(meaning no ordered keyword was passed) were defaulted as ordered
Categoricals. Going forward, the ordered keyword in the Categorical
constructor will default to False. Ordering must now be explicit.
Furthermore, previously you
*could
* change the ordered attribute of a
Categorical by just setting the attribute, e.g. cat.ordered=True; This is
now deprecated and you should use cat.as_ordered() or cat.as_unordered().
These will by default return a
*
*new
*
* object and not modify the
existing object.
- Index.duplicated now returns np.array(dtype=bool) rather than
Index(dtype=object) containing bool values.
- DataFrame.to_json now returns accurate type serialisation for each column
for frames of mixed dtype
- DatetimeIndex, PeriodIndex and TimedeltaIndex.summary now output the same
format.
- TimedeltaIndex.freqstr now output the same string format as
DatetimeIndex.
- Bar and horizontal bar plots no longer add a dashed line along the info
axis. The prior style can be achieved with matplotlib\'s axhline or
axvline methods.
- Series accessors .dt, .cat and .str now raise AttributeError instead of
TypeError if the series does not contain the appropriate type of data.
This follows Python\'s built-in exception hierarchy more closely and
ensures that tests like hasattr(s, \'cat\') are consistent on both Python
2 and 3.
- Series now supports bitwise operation for integral types. Previously even
if the input dtypes were integral, the output dtype was coerced to bool.
- During division involving a Series or DataFrame, 0/0 and 0//0 now give
np.nan instead of np.inf.
- Series.values_counts and Series.describe for categorical data will now
put NaN entries at the end.
- Series.describe for categorical data will now give counts and frequencies
of 0, not NaN, for unused categories
- Due to a bug fix, looking up a partial string label with
DatetimeIndex.asof now includes values that match the string, even if
they are after the start of the partial string label. Old behavior:

* Deprecations
- The rplot trellis plotting interface is deprecated and will be removed
in a future version. We refer to external packages like
seaborn for similar but more refined functionality.
- The pandas.sandbox.qtpandas interface is deprecated and will be removed
in a future version.
We refer users to the external package pandas-qt.
- The pandas.rpy interface is deprecated and will be removed in a future
version.
Similar functionaility can be accessed thru the rpy2 project
- Adding DatetimeIndex/PeriodIndex to another DatetimeIndex/PeriodIndex is
being deprecated as a set-operation. This will be changed to a TypeError
in a future version. .union() should be used for the union set operation.
- Subtracting DatetimeIndex/PeriodIndex from another
DatetimeIndex/PeriodIndex is being deprecated as a set-operation. This
will be changed to an actual numeric subtraction yielding a
TimeDeltaIndex in a future version. .difference() should be used for
the differencing set operation.

* Removal of prior version deprecations/changes
- DataFrame.pivot_table and crosstab\'s rows and cols keyword arguments were
removed in favor
of index and columns
- DataFrame.to_excel and DataFrame.to_csv cols keyword argument was removed
in favor of columns
- Removed convert_dummies in favor of get_dummies
- Removed value_range in favor of describe

* Performance Improvements
- Fixed a performance regression for .loc indexing with an array or
list-like.
- DataFrame.to_json 30x performance improvement for mixed dtype frames.
- Performance improvements in MultiIndex.duplicated by working with labels
instead of values
- Improved the speed of nunique by calling unique instead of value_counts
- Performance improvement of up to 10x in DataFrame.count and
DataFrame.dropna by taking advantage of homogeneous/heterogeneous dtypes
appropriately
- Performance improvement of up to 20x in DataFrame.count when using a
MultiIndex and the level keyword argument
- Performance and memory usage improvements in merge when key space exceeds
int64 bounds
- Performance improvements in multi-key groupby
- Performance improvements in MultiIndex.sortlevel
- Performance and memory usage improvements in DataFrame.duplicated

column with timezone info) to the appropriate sqlalchemy type.
- Fixed bug in to_sql dtype argument not accepting an instantiated
SQLAlchemy type.
- Bug in .loc partial setting with a np.datetime64
- Incorrect dtypes inferred on datetimelike looking Series & on .xs slices
- Items in Categorical.unique() (and s.unique() if s is of dtype category)
now appear in the order in which they are originally found, not in sorted
order. This is now consistent with the behavior for other dtypes in pandas.
- Fixed bug on big endian platforms which produced incorrect results in
StataReader.
- Bug in MultiIndex.has_duplicates when having many levels causes an
indexer overflow

monotonic increasing
- Fixed division by zero error for Series.kurt() when all values are equal
- Fixed issue in the xlsxwriter engine where it added a default \'General\'
format to cells if no other format wass applied. This prevented other
row or column formatting being applied.
- Fixes issue with index_col=False when usecols is also specified in
read_csv.
- Bug where wide_to_long would modify the input stubnames list

in a frame in some cases

Mon Jan 12 13:00:00 2015 toddrme2178AATTgmail.com
- update to version 0.15.2:

* API changes:
- Indexing in MultiIndex beyond lex-sort depth is now supported,
though a lexically sorted index will have a better
performance. (GH2646)
- Bug in unique of Series with category dtype, which returned all
categories regardless whether they were \"used\" or not (see
GH8559 for the discussion). Previous behaviour was to return all
categories.
- Series.all and Series.any now support the level and skipna
parameters. Series.all, Series.any, Index.all, and Index.any no
longer support the out and keepdims parameters, which existed
for compatibility with ndarray. Various index types no longer
support the all and any aggregation functions and will now raise
TypeError. (GH8302).
- Allow equality comparisons of Series with a categorical dtype
and object dtype; previously these would raise TypeError
(GH8938)
- Bug in NDFrame: conflicting attribute/column names now behave
consistently between getting and setting. Previously, when both
a column and attribute named y existed, data.y would return the
attribute, while data.y = z would update the column (GH8994)
- Timestamp(\'now\') is now equivalent to Timestamp.now() in that it
returns the local time rather than UTC. Also, Timestamp(\'today\')
is now equivalent to Timestamp.today() and both have tz as a
possible argument. (GH9000)
- Fix negative step support for label-based slices (GH8753)

* Enhancements:
- Added ability to export Categorical data to Stata (GH8633). See
here for limitations of categorical variables exported to Stata
data files.
- Added flag order_categoricals to StataReader and read_stata to
select whether to order imported categorical data (GH8836). See
here for more information on importing categorical variables
from Stata data files.
- Added ability to export Categorical data to to/from HDF5
(GH7621). Queries work the same as if it was an object
array. However, the category dtyped data is stored in a more
efficient manner. See here for an example and caveats
w.r.t. prior versions of pandas.
- Added support for searchsorted() on Categorical class (GH8420).
- Added the ability to specify the SQL type of columns when
writing a DataFrame to a database (GH8778). For example,
specifying to use the sqlalchemy String type instead of the
default Text type for string columns.
- Series.all and Series.any now support the level and skipna
parameters (GH8302).
- Panel now supports the all and any aggregation
functions. (GH8302).
- Added support for utcfromtimestamp(), fromtimestamp(), and
combine() on Timestamp class (GH5351).
- Added Google Analytics (pandas.io.ga) basic documentation
(GH8835).
- Timedelta arithmetic returns NotImplemented in unknown cases,
allowing extensions by custom classes (GH8813).
- Timedelta now supports arithemtic with numpy.ndarray objects of
the appropriate dtype (numpy 1.8 or newer only) (GH8884).
- Added Timedelta.to_timedelta64() method to the public API
(GH8884).
- Added gbq.generate_bq_schema() function to the gbq module
(GH8325).
- Series now works with map objects the same way as generators
(GH8909).
- Added context manager to HDFStore for automatic closing
(GH8791).
- to_datetime gains an exact keyword to allow for a format to not
require an exact match for a provided format string (if its
False). exact defaults to True (meaning that exact matching is
still the default) (GH8904)
- Added axvlines boolean option to parallel_coordinates plot
function, determines whether vertical lines will be printed,
default is True
- Added ability to read table footers to read_html (GH8552).
- to_sql now infers datatypes of non-NA values for columns that
contain NA values and have dtype object (GH8778).

* Performance:
- Reduce memory usage when skiprows is an integer in read_csv
(GH8681)
- Performance boost for to_datetime conversions with a passed
format=, and the exact=False (GH8904)

* Bug fixes:
- Bug in concat of Series with category dtype which were coercing
to object. (GH8641)
- Bug in Timestamp-Timestamp not returning a Timedelta type and
datelike-datelike ops with timezones (GH8865)
- Made consistent a timezone mismatch exception (either tz
operated with None or incompatible timezone), will now return
TypeError rather than ValueError (a couple of edge cases only),
(GH8865)
- Bug in using a pd.Grouper(key=...) with no level/axis or level
only (GH8795, GH8866)
- Report a TypeError when invalid/no paramaters are passed in a
groupby (GH8015)
- Bug in packaging pandas with py2app/cx_Freeze (GH8602, GH8831)
- Bug in groupby signatures that didn’t include
*args or
*
*kwargs
(GH8733).
- io.data.Options now raises RemoteDataError when no expiry dates
are available from Yahoo and when it receives no data from Yahoo
(GH8761), (GH8783).
- Unclear error message in csv parsing when passing dtype and
names and the parsed data is a different data type (GH8833)
- Bug in slicing a multi-index with an empty list and at least one
boolean indexer (GH8781)
- io.data.Options now raises RemoteDataError when no expiry dates
are available from Yahoo (GH8761).
- Timedelta kwargs may now be numpy ints and floats (GH8757).
- Fixed several outstanding bugs for Timedelta arithmetic and
comparisons (GH8813, GH5963, GH5436).
- sql_schema now generates dialect appropriate CREATE TABLE
statements (GH8697)
- slice string method now takes step into account (GH8754)
- Bug in BlockManager where setting values with different type
would break block integrity (GH8850)
- Bug in DatetimeIndex when using time object as key (GH8667)
- Bug in merge where how=\'left\' and sort=False would not preserve
left frame order (GH7331)
- Bug in MultiIndex.reindex where reindexing at level would not
reorder labels (GH4088)
- Bug in certain operations with dateutil timezones, manifesting

- Updated to version 0.15.1:
+ API changes
- Represent ``MultiIndex`` labels with a dtype that utilizes memory based
on the level size.
- ``groupby`` with ``as_index=False`` will not add erroneous extra columns
to result (:issue:`8582`):
- ``groupby`` will not erroneously exclude columns if the column name
conflics with the grouper name (:issue:`8112`):
- ``concat`` permits a wider variety of iterables of pandas objects to be
passed as the first parameter (:issue:`8645`):
- ``s.dt.hour`` and other ``.dt`` accessors will now return ``np.nan`` for
missing values (rather than previously -1), (:issue:`8689`)
- support for slicing with monotonic decreasing indexes, even if ``start``
or ``stop`` is not found in the index (:issue:`7860`):
- added Index properties `is_monotonic_increasing` and
`is_monotonic_decreasing` (:issue:`8680`).
- pandas now also registers the ``datetime64`` dtype in matplotlib\'s units
registry to plot such values as datetimes.
+ Enhancements
- Added option to select columns when importing Stata files (:issue:`7935`)
- Qualify memory usage in ``DataFrame.info()`` by adding ``+`` if it is a
lower bound (:issue:`8578`)
- Raise errors in certain aggregation cases where an argument such as
``numeric_only`` is not handled (:issue:`8592`).
- Added support for 3-character ISO and non-standard country codes in
:func:``io.wb.download()`` (:issue:`8482`)
- :ref:`World Bank data requests ` now will warn/raise
based on an ``errors`` argument, as well as a list of hard-coded country
codes and the World Bank\'s JSON response.
- Added option to ``Series.str.split()`` to return a ``DataFrame`` rather
than a ``Series`` (:issue:`8428`)
- Added option to ``df.info(null_counts=None|True|False)`` to override the
default display options and force showing of the null-counts
(:issue:`8701`)
+ Bug Fixes
- Bug in unpickling of a ``CustomBusinessDay`` object (:issue:`8591`)
- Bug in coercing ``Categorical`` to a records array, e.g.
``df.to_records()`` (:issue:`8626`)
- Bug in ``Categorical`` not created properly with ``Series.to_frame()``
(:issue:`8626`)
- Bug in coercing in astype of a ``Categorical`` of a passed
``pd.Categorical`` (this now raises ``TypeError`` correctly),
(:issue:`8626`)
- Bug in ``cut``/``qcut`` when using ``Series`` and ``retbins=True``
(:issue:`8589`)
- Bug in writing Categorical columns to an SQL database with ``to_sql``
(:issue:`8624`).
- Bug in comparing ``Categorical`` of datetime raising when being compared
to a scalar datetime (:issue:`8687`)
- Bug in selecting from a ``Categorical`` with ``.iloc`` (:issue:`8623`)
- Bug in groupby-transform with a Categorical (:issue:`8623`)
- Bug in duplicated/drop_duplicates with a Categorical (:issue:`8623`)
- Bug in ``Categorical`` reflected comparison operator raising if the first
argument was a numpy array scalar (e.g. np.int64) (:issue:`8658`)
- Bug in Panel indexing with a list-like (:issue:`8710`)
- Compat issue is ``DataFrame.dtypes`` when
``options.mode.use_inf_as_null`` is True (:issue:`8722`)
- Bug in ``read_csv``, ``dialect`` parameter would not take a string
(:issue: `8703`)
- Bug in slicing a multi-index level with an empty-list (:issue:`8737`)
- Bug in numeric index operations of add/sub with Float/Index Index with
numpy arrays (:issue:`8608`)
- Bug in setitem with empty indexer and unwanted coercion of dtypes
(:issue:`8669`)
- Bug in ix/loc block splitting on setitem (manifests with integer-like
dtypes, e.g. datetime64) (:issue:`8607`)
- Bug when doing label based indexing with integers not found in the index
for non-unique but monotonic indexes (:issue:`8680`).
- Bug when indexing a Float64Index with ``np.nan`` on numpy 1.7
(:issue:`8980`).
- Fix ``shape`` attribute for ``MultiIndex`` (:issue:`8609`)
- Bug in ``GroupBy`` where a name conflict between the grouper and columns
would break ``groupby`` operations (:issue:`7115`, :issue:`8112`)
- Fixed a bug where plotting a column ``y`` and specifying a label would
mutate the index name of the original DataFrame (:issue:`8494`)
- Fix regression in plotting of a DatetimeIndex directly with matplotlib
(:issue:`8614`).
- Bug in ``date_range`` where partially-specified dates would incorporate
current date (:issue:`6961`)
- Bug in Setting by indexer to a scalar value with a mixed-dtype `Panel4d`
was failing (:issue:`8702`)
- Bug where ``DataReader``\'s would fail if one of the symbols passed was
invalid. Now returns data for valid symbols and np.nan for invalid
(:issue:`8494`)
- Bug in ``get_quote_yahoo`` that wouldn\'t allow non-float return values
(:issue:`5229`).
