Convert Pandas Series To DateTime In A DataFrame


Answer :

You can't: DataFrame columns are Series, by definition. That said, if you make the dtype (the type of all the elements) datetime-like, then you can access the quantities you want via the .dt accessor (docs):


>>> df["TimeReviewed"] = pd.to_datetime(df["TimeReviewed"])
>>> df["TimeReviewed"]
205  76032930   2015-01-24 00:05:27.513000
232  76032930   2015-01-24 00:06:46.703000
233  76032930   2015-01-24 00:06:56.707000
413  76032930   2015-01-24 00:14:24.957000
565  76032930   2015-01-24 00:23:07.220000
Name: TimeReviewed, dtype: datetime64[ns]
>>> df["TimeReviewed"].dt
<pandas.tseries.common.DatetimeProperties object at 0xb10da60c>
>>> df["TimeReviewed"].dt.year
205  76032930    2015
232  76032930    2015
233  76032930    2015
413  76032930    2015
565  76032930    2015
dtype: int64
>>> df["TimeReviewed"].dt.month
205  76032930    1
232  76032930    1
233  76032930    1
413  76032930    1
565  76032930    1
dtype: int64
>>> df["TimeReviewed"].dt.minute
205  76032930     5
232  76032930     6
233  76032930     6
413  76032930    14
565  76032930    23
dtype: int64


If you're stuck using an older version of pandas, you can always access the various elements manually (again, after converting it to a datetime-dtyped Series). It'll be slower, but sometimes that isn't an issue:


>>> df["TimeReviewed"].apply(lambda x: x.year)
205  76032930    2015
232  76032930    2015
233  76032930    2015
413  76032930    2015
565  76032930    2015
Name: TimeReviewed, dtype: int64


df=pd.read_csv("filename.csv" , parse_dates=["<column name>"])

type(df.<column name>)


example: if you want to convert day which is initially a string to a Timestamp in Pandas



df=pd.read_csv("weather_data2.csv" , parse_dates=["day"])

type(df.day)


The output will be pandas.tslib.Timestamp

Converting A String To Int In Groovy

Answer : Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer , e.g. int value = "99".toInteger() An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is int value = "66" as Integer If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use String number = "66" if (number.isInteger()) { int value = number as Integer } Deprecation Update In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4 /** * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer * * @param self a CharSequence * @return an Integer * @since 1.8.2 */ public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) { return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim()); } /** * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version * @see #toInteger(CharSequence) */ @Deprecated public static Integer toInteger(String self) { return toInteg

"Cannot Create Cache Directory /home//.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org/, Or Directory Is Not Writable. Proceeding Without Cache"

Answer : if anyone pass through here, this is shorter solution: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/.composer it seems to me the group information is missing in your command sudo chown -R <user> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org Shoud be sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org But to avoid other permission issues, I would rather advise: sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache (you'll need access to other folders in there) and sudo chown <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer To make sure your user has permissions enough on the global composer folder. Mind the missing recursion so the user don't own keys created by root. If you need to find out the group: groups <user>

Android How Can I Convert A String To A Editable

Answer : As you probably found out, Editable is an interface so you cannot call new Editable() . However an Editable is nothing more than a String with Spannables, so use SpannableStringBuilder: Editable editable = new SpannableStringBuilder("Pass a string here"); If you only want to change the Spannables, never the text itself, you can use a basic SpannableString. Use Editable.Factory.getInstance().newEditable(str) From the android documentation: Returns a new SpannedStringBuilder from the specified CharSequence. You can override this to provide a different kind of Spanned.
