pandas.Series

One-dimensional ndarray with axis labels (including time series).

Labels need not be unique but must be a hashable type. The object supports both integer- and label-based indexing and provides a host of methods for performing operations involving the index. Statistical methods from ndarray have been overridden to automatically exclude missing data (currently represented as NaN).

Operations between Series (+, -, /, *, **) align values based on their associated index values– they need not be the same length. The result index will be the sorted union of the two indexes.

param data

array-like, Iterable, dict, or scalar value

Contains data stored in Series.

Changed in version 0.23.0.

and later.

param index

array-like or Index (1d)

Values must be hashable and have the same length as data. Non-unique index values are allowed. Will default to RangeIndex (0, 1, 2, …, n) if not provided. If both a dict and index sequence are used, the index will override the keys found in the dict.

param dtype

str, numpy.dtype, or ExtensionDtype, optional

Data type for the output Series. If not specified, this will be inferred from data. See the user guide for more usages.

param copy

bool, default False

Copy input data.

Limitations

• Parameters dtype and copy are currently unsupported.

• Types iterable and dict as data parameter are currently unsupported.

Examples

Create Series with data [1, 2, 3] and index [‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’].

>>> pd.Series([1, 2, 3], ['A', 'B', 'C'])
