Description
Sample with Multiindex in columns:
df = pd.DataFrame({('r', 'c'): {(1, '2016-11-01 00:00:00+00:00', 3121): 143, (1, '2016-11-01 00:00:00+00:00', 4880): 12, (1, '2016-11-01 00:00:00+00:00', 3953): 4, (1, '2016-11-01 00:00:00+00:00', 3923): 11}})
df.index.names = ['z','x','y']
print (df)
r
c
z x y
1 2016-11-01 00:00:00+00:00 3121 143
3923 11
3953 4
4880 12
x = 'x'
y = 'y'
#works perfect
print (df.groupby(level=[x, y]).agg({('r', 'c'): 'rank'}))
print (df.groupby(level=[x, y]).agg({('r', 'c'): lambda x: x.rank(ascending=False)}))
#ValueError: Function does not reduce
Problem is with non MultiIndex columns also:
df = pd.DataFrame({'A':[1,1,3,3],
'B':[4,5,6,1]})
print (df)
A B
0 1 4
1 1 5
2 3 6
3 3 1
print (df.groupby('A').agg({'B': 'rank'}))
B
0 1.0
1 2.0
2 2.0
3 1.0
print (df.groupby('A').agg({'B': lambda x: x.rank()}))
#Exception: Must produce aggregated value
print (df.groupby('A').agg({'B': lambda x: x.rank(ascending=False)}))
#Exception: Must produce aggregated value
Problem is how can I use function with parameter in agg function? SO question
print (pd.show_versions())
