Description
Pandas version checks
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
i = pd.date_range('2018-04-09', periods=4, freq='2D')
ts = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 2, 3, 4]}, index=i)
# bug-- shows just 1 row
print(ts.first(pd.DateOffset(days=3)))
# shows 2 rows as in the docs: https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.first.html
print(ts.first('3D'))Issue Description
first() and last() take DateOffset, but passing a DateOffset always gives at most one row.
Expected Behavior
DateOffset(days=3) should work the same as '3D'.
