Enhancements

Nonmonotonic PeriodIndex Partial String Slicing

:class:`PeriodIndex` now supports partial string slicing for non-monotonic indexes, mirroring :class:`DatetimeIndex` behavior (:issue:`31096`)

For example:

.. ipython:: python

   dti = pd.date_range("2014-01-01", periods=30, freq="30D")
   pi = dti.to_period("D")
   ser_monotonic = pd.Series(np.arange(30), index=pi)
   shuffler = list(range(0, 30, 2)) + list(range(1, 31, 2))
   ser = ser_monotonic[shuffler]
   ser

.. ipython:: python

   ser["2014"]
   ser.loc["May 2015"]

Other enhancements

• :class:`Styler` may now render CSS more efficiently where multiple cells have the same styling (:issue:`30876`)
• When writing directly to a sqlite connection :func:`to_sql` now supports the multi method (:issue:`29921`)

Other API changes

• :meth:`Series.describe` will now show distribution percentiles for datetime dtypes, statistics first and last will now be min and max to match with numeric dtypes in :meth:`DataFrame.describe` (:issue:`30164`)
• :meth:`Groupby.groups` now returns an abbreviated representation when called on large dataframes (:issue:`1135`)
• loc lookups with an object-dtype :class:`Index` and an integer key will now raise KeyError instead of TypeError when key is missing (:issue:`31905`)

Backwards incompatible API changes

• :meth:`DataFrame.swaplevels` now raises a TypeError if the axis is not a :class:`MultiIndex`. Previously a AttributeError was raised (:issue:`31126`)
• :meth:`DataFrameGroupby.mean` and :meth:`SeriesGroupby.mean` (and similarly for :meth:`~DataFrameGroupby.median`, :meth:`~DataFrameGroupby.std`` and :meth:`~DataFrameGroupby.var``) now raise a TypeError if a not-accepted keyword argument is passed into it. Previously a UnsupportedFunctionCall was raised (AssertionError if min_count passed into :meth:`~DataFrameGroupby.median``) (:issue:`31485`)
• :meth:`DataFrame.at` and :meth:`Series.at` will raise a TypeError instead of a ValueError if an incompatible key is passed, and KeyError if a missing key is passed, matching the behavior of .loc[] (:issue:`31722`)

Deprecations

• Lookups on a :class:`Series` with a single-item list containing a slice (e.g. ser[[slice(0, 4)]]) are deprecated, will raise in a future version. Either convert the list to tuple, or pass the slice directly instead (:issue:`31333`)
• :meth:`DataFrame.mean` and :meth:`DataFrame.median` with numeric_only=None will include datetime64 and datetime64tz columns in a future version (:issue:`29941`)

Performance improvements

• Performance improvement in :class:`Timedelta` constructor (:issue:`30543`)
• Performance improvement in :class:`Timestamp` constructor (:issue:`30543`)

Bug fixes

Categorical

• Bug when passing categorical data to :class:`Index` constructor along with dtype=object incorrectly returning a :class:`CategoricalIndex` instead of object-dtype :class:`Index` (:issue:`32167`)

Datetimelike

• Bug in :class:`Timestamp` where constructing :class:`Timestamp` from ambiguous epoch time and calling constructor again changed :meth:`Timestamp.value` property (:issue:`24329`)
• :meth:`DatetimeArray.searchsorted`, :meth:`TimedeltaArray.searchsorted`, :meth:`PeriodArray.searchsorted` not recognizing non-pandas scalars and incorrectly raising ValueError instead of TypeError (:issue:`30950`)
• Bug in :class:`Timestamp` where constructing :class:`Timestamp` with dateutil timezone less than 128 nanoseconds before daylight saving time switch from winter to summer would result in nonexistent time (:issue:`31043`)
• Bug in :meth:`Period.to_timestamp`, :meth:`Period.start_time` with microsecond frequency returning a timestamp one nanosecond earlier than the correct time (:issue:`31475`)

Timedelta

• Bug in constructing a :class:`Timedelta` with a high precision integer that would round the :class:`Timedelta` components (:issue:`31354`)

Timezones

Numeric

• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.floordiv` with axis=0 not treating division-by-zero like :meth:`Series.floordiv` (:issue:`31271`)

Conversion

• Bug in :class:`Series` construction from NumPy array with big-endian datetime64 dtype (:issue:`29684`)

Strings

Interval

Indexing

• Bug in slicing on a :class:`DatetimeIndex` with a partial-timestamp dropping high-resolution indices near the end of a year, quarter, or month (:issue:`31064`)
• Bug in :meth:`PeriodIndex.get_loc` treating higher-resolution strings differently from :meth:`PeriodIndex.get_value` (:issue:`31172`)
• Bug in :meth:`Series.at` and :meth:`DataFrame.at` not matching .loc behavior when looking up an integer in a :class:`Float64Index` (:issue:`31329`)
• Bug in :meth:`PeriodIndex.is_monotonic` incorrectly returning True when containing leading NaT entries (:issue:`31437`)
• Bug in :meth:`DatetimeIndex.get_loc` raising KeyError with converted-integer key instead of the user-passed key (:issue:`31425`)
• Bug in :meth:`Series.xs` incorrectly returning Timestamp instead of datetime64 in some object-dtype cases (:issue:`31630`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.iat` incorrectly returning Timestamp instead of datetime in some object-dtype cases (:issue:`32809`)
• Bug in :meth:`Series.loc` and :meth:`DataFrame.loc` when indexing with an integer key on a object-dtype :class:`Index` that is not all-integers (:issue:`31905`)

Missing

MultiIndex

• Bug in :meth:`Dataframe.loc` when used with a :class:`MultiIndex`. The returned values were not in the same order as the given inputs (:issue:`22797`)

.. ipython:: python

        df = pd.DataFrame(np.arange(4),
                          index=[["a", "a", "b", "b"], [1, 2, 1, 2]])
        # Rows are now ordered as the requested keys
        df.loc[(['b', 'a'], [2, 1]), :]

• Bug in :meth:`MultiIndex.intersection` was not guaranteed to preserve order when sort=False. (:issue:`31325`)

.. ipython:: python

        left = pd.MultiIndex.from_arrays([["b", "a"], [2, 1]])
        right = pd.MultiIndex.from_arrays([["a", "b", "c"], [1, 2, 3]])
        # Common elements are now guaranteed to be ordered by the left side
        left.intersection(right, sort=False)

I/O

• Bug in :meth:`read_json` where integer overflow was occuring when json contains big number strings. (:issue:`30320`)
• read_csv will now raise a ValueError when the arguments header and prefix both are not None. (:issue:`27394`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.to_json` was raising NotFoundError when path_or_buf was an S3 URI (:issue:`28375`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.to_parquet` overwriting pyarrow's default for coerce_timestamps; following pyarrow's default allows writing nanosecond timestamps with version="2.0" (:issue:`31652`).
• Bug in :class:`HDFStore` that caused it to set to int64 the dtype of a datetime64 column when reading a DataFrame in Python 3 from fixed format written in Python 2 (:issue:`31750`)

Plotting

• :func:`.plot` for line/bar now accepts color by dictonary (:issue:`8193`).
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.boxplot` and :meth:`DataFrame.plot.boxplot` lost color attributes of medianprops, whiskerprops, capprops and medianprops (:issue:`30346`)

Groupby/resample/rolling

• Bug in :meth:`GroupBy.apply` raises ValueError when the by axis is not sorted and has duplicates and the applied func does not mutate passed in objects (:issue:`30667`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrameGroupby.transform` produces incorrect result with transformation functions (:issue:`30918`)

Reshaping

• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.pivot_table` when only MultiIndexed columns is set (:issue:`17038`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.unstack` and :meth:`Series.unstack` can take tuple names in MultiIndexed data (:issue:`19966`)
• Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.pivot_table` when margin is True and only column is defined (:issue:`31016`)
• Fix incorrect error message in :meth:`DataFrame.pivot` when columns is set to None. (:issue:`30924`)
• Bug in :func:`crosstab` when inputs are two Series and have tuple names, the output will keep dummy MultiIndex as columns. (:issue:`18321`)
• :meth:`DataFrame.pivot` can now take lists for index and columns arguments (:issue:`21425`)
• Bug in :func:`concat` where the resulting indices are not copied when copy=True (:issue:`29879`)

Sparse

ExtensionArray

Other

• Appending a dictionary to a :class:`DataFrame` without passing ignore_index=True will raise TypeError: Can only append a dict if ignore_index=True instead of TypeError: Can only append a Series if ignore_index=True or if the Series has a name (:issue:`30871`)
• Set operations on an object-dtype :class:`Index` now always return object-dtype results (:issue:`31401`)
• Bug in :meth:`AbstractHolidayCalendar.holidays` when no rules were defined (:issue:`31415`)
