pandas.DataFrame.agg

Aggregate using one or more operations over the specified axis.

New in version 0.20.0.

param func

function, str, list or dict

Function to use for aggregating the data. If a function, must either work when passed a DataFrame or when passed to DataFrame.apply.

Accepted combinations are:

• function

• string function name

• list of functions and/or function names, e.g. [np.sum, 'mean']

• dict of axis labels -> functions, function names or list of such.

param axis

{0 or ‘index’, 1 or ‘columns’}, default 0

If 0 or ‘index’: apply function to each column. If 1 or ‘columns’: apply function to each row. *args Positional arguments to pass to func. **kwargs Keyword arguments to pass to func.

return

scalar, Series or DataFrame

The return can be:

• scalar : when Series.agg is called with single function

• Series : when DataFrame.agg is called with a single function

• DataFrame : when DataFrame.agg is called with several functions

Return scalar, Series or DataFrame.

The aggregation operations are always performed over an axis, either the index (default) or the column axis. This behavior is different from numpy aggregation functions (mean, median, prod, sum, std, var), where the default is to compute the aggregation of the flattened array, e.g., numpy.mean(arr_2d) as opposed to numpy.mean(arr_2d, axis=0).

agg is an alias for aggregate. Use the alias.
