pandas.TimedeltaIndex.get_indexer

TimedeltaIndex.get_indexer(target, method=None, limit=None, tolerance=None)

Compute indexer and mask for new index given the current index. The indexer should be then used as an input to ndarray.take to align the current data to the new index.

Parameters:

target : Index method : {None, ‘pad’/’ffill’, ‘backfill’/’bfill’, ‘nearest’}, optional default: exact matches only. pad / ffill: find the PREVIOUS index value if no exact match. backfill / bfill: use NEXT index value if no exact match nearest: use the NEAREST index value if no exact match. Tied distances are broken by preferring the larger index value. limit : int, optional Maximum number of consecutive labels in target to match for inexact matches. tolerance : optional Maximum distance between original and new labels for inexact matches. The values of the index at the matching locations most satisfy the equation abs(index[indexer] - target) <= tolerance. New in version 0.17.0.

Returns:

indexer : ndarray of int Integers from 0 to n - 1 indicating that the index at these positions matches the corresponding target values. Missing values in the target are marked by -1.

Examples

>>> indexer = index.get_indexer(new_index)
>>> new_values = cur_values.take(indexer)
