Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
import pandas as pd
from decimal import Decimal as D
series = pd.Series([D(1)])
print(series)
print(-(series))Problem description
I'm dealing with decimal data where exact representation is required, thus I use Python's Decimal type with pandas. With the update from 0.22 to 0.23, the unary negative expression broke.
Expected Output (from 0.22)
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from decimal import Decimal as D
>>> series = pd.Series([D(1)])
>>> print(series)
0 1
dtype: object
>>> print(-(series))
0 -1
dtype: object
Actual Output (from 0.23)
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from decimal import Decimal as D
>>> series = pd.Series([D(1)])
>>> print(series)
0 1
dtype: object
>>> print(-(series))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "python3.6/site-packages/pandas/core/generic.py", line 1124, in __neg__
.format(values.dtype))
TypeError: Unary negative expects numeric dtype, not object
Workaround (in 0.23)
Broadcasting against 0 has the expected effect:
>>> 0-series
0 -1
dtype: object
>>> (0-series).iloc[0]
Decimal('-1')
